Project Rescue
Project Rescue | makingGOOD
Sometimes projects go off-road. It can be any number of factors that risks a project’s success, from management challenges, unexpected business events, or unforeseen risks materialising. At the end of the day, a project disaster is expensive and disappointing. JPL are experts in turning projects around, out of stormy waters and towards their successful destination.
How we rescue projects
Much of the panic and stress around a struggling project comes from a lack of clarity. With a highly experienced advisory and delivery capability, JPL will determine the current status of your project, including progress and budget burn rate.
With a clear understanding of the status quo, our group will build a plan to get the project back on track. This includes bringing in delivery experts, project management expertise and introducing accountabilities for good governance.
Careful review practices
Along with our sister company IQANZ, we also review governance and reporting practices. We’ll also determine if there are communication or relationship issues within the business that are hampering project success.
Our quality assurance methodologies help to understand the project’s condition with complete clarity, drawing up on proven approaches like P3M3® – the Portfolio, Programme, and Project Management Maturity Model.
Project emergencies we know well
Every project is unique, but there are common reasons why a project needs rescuing:
- Spending the budget too quickly.
- Milestones continually being missed.
- Project deliverables struggling to meet acceptance criteria.
- Loss of key resources.
- Technical and integration issues.
- Rampant scope creep.
Why we’re GOOD at getting your project back on track
Saving a project from failure is what our Known To Be Good group do. We combine strategic and advisory expertise with management and technical skills to find a route back to success for your project. Rather than put strain on your internal resources, JPL can bring in support to help your team steer out of whatever challenges are causing issues. One of our specialist capabilities is taking an attempted complex technology project that’s failed and making the necessary changes to ultimately deliver it to the business.

When there’s problems, true experience and wisdom pays off. And JPL’s Known To Be Good group has been assembled over years of working together and delivering successful outcomes for ICT projects previously in strife. Our group’s capabilities enable us to assign the right brains to the job, making the rescue faster and more effective. No one in your JPL team is new to a struggling project challenge.
