PMO Deployment & Support 

Does your organization need assistance with creating/refining your OPM3 Enterprise, Sub-enterprise, framework, and assets at several echelons?  Has your organization reached the level of maturity where a Project/Program/Portfolio Management Office is needed in order to organize and standardize key performance indicators (KPIs) to empower agile decision-making for Senior Management?  Do you need assistance with product/service/result (P/S/R) deployment?  Do you want your people, your greatest asset, to be on the cutting edge of modern tools and techniques? 

We can help.  By building you Portfolio and Program solutions consisting of many projects, onboarding one project at a time, we will enable success for your organizational strategic objectives and goals according to your Vision and Mission.  PMO (Project/Program/Portfolio) development and P/S/R solution deployment are critical for delivering targeted outcomes through value streams across several programs and portfolios with comprehensive guard rails.  Quality and Continuous Improvement are crucial to making your organization run smoothly and effectively.  We are teamed with legendary cross-industrial leaders in Six Sigma like Mike Carnell, co-creator of Six Sigma at Motorola in the early 1980’s, then Allied Signal Automotive going into the 1990’s, then General Electric directly under Jack Welch throughout the 1990’s, and beyond.  Read more about Mike here.

Custom Certification Programs

Wouldn’t you prefer the peace of mind knowing expert teaching practitioners conduct some or all of your personnel training at the highest level so you don’t have to?  As markets diversify, it becomes increasingly obvious that having your own people train each other during and after hours is not the most efficient use of their time (or yours).  Why not hire the best to do the worrying for you, to fully or supplementally provide the advanced training you need? 

All training can be accomplished in-person and/or online live, and also by using our Learning Management System (LMS).  Will the skillsets of your people outlast ever-evolving and emerging markets?  The amount of knowledge in the world more than triples every six months.  Without expert teaching practitioners with decades of experience engaging and developing your people alongside you, is it an efficient use of your time to create, plan, execute, and monitor courses internally?  Wouldn’t it be easier if training was handled partially or entirely by professionals outside your organization?  Sometimes an outside source is the best answer.  That’s why we’re here.  Our clients use us as an extension of their in-house training. We’re happy to offer customized project management certification programs that can be modified and formatted to better suite your needs, brand, and strategic goals. 

• Customized PMP®, PMI-ACP®, PMI-PBA® Six Sigma, PgMP® and more courses
• Taught on location or Virtually Live-online
• Co-branded course assets (not including books) or fully white labeled course format available

Any size organization may apply for customized training, and larger organizations/companies generally benefit from re-occuring multi-year program training cycles (ex: we come in and teach 5+ people every 3 months) with a 5 students per class minimum.  The more students we teach, the lower the price point we can give you.  We can deliver live in-person, live Virtual, and/or even create On-Demand self-paced courses.  We can customize it any way you like!
