Challenge
Provide guidance to help the management leadership understand the functional barriers that are inhibiting effective teamwork, resource management, and project execution.
Solution
We developed a workshop to facilitate improved teamwork with the goals of a unified organization vision, improved levels of trust and collaboration, and breaking down of the functional barriers to an effective project-driven organization. Building upon the results of the workshop, a cross-functional team performs a workflow analysis to provide an understanding of the inefficiencies and establish new project execution processes, roles, and responsibilities. This leads to the expansion of the existing project charter to a comprehensive Project Plan template to provide a better foundation for project execution management and control. The resource management requirements are examined, and improvement opportunities identified. An integrated demand planning, capacity planning, and resource management process creates a solid structure for day-to-day resource monitoring and control. Finally, the organization levels of management are reviewed to determine the appropriate structure to support the streamlined project execution processes.
Benefits

- Higher morale resulting in improved teamwork.
