This methodology promotes a healthy, less stressful project environment for all your stakeholders. In addition, you'll have the tools, reports and facilitating techniques to keep all members of the team informed, with an eye on the big picture while focusing on near-term deliverables.

'''Project Management Training'''

Committed teams accomplish more-and one way to ensure their commitment is to involve them in the planning process. PMAlliance provides team members the right skills and knowledge to participate. As a part of our project management consulting services, we offer [[Keyword::project management methodology]], [http://www.pm-alliance.com/Project_Management_Software.htm project management software] and facilitator training for all stakeholders in your organization-from team members to managers, project sponsors to customers.

'''Project Management Consulting'''
 +
 
 +
PMAlliance has an impressive track record of providing our clients with proven project management consulting solutions that are both effective and cost-efficient. Not only do our consultants have the experience to roll-up their sleeves to help drive your high-priority project to successful completion, but they also have the expertise to mentor your personnel through the process of adopting a more structured approach. If you require a customized approach, PMAlliance personnel will work with your organization to deliver near-term successes on your projects while moving your organization in the right direction.
 +
 
 +
Our [[Keyword::consultants]] are required to be certified by the [[Keyword::Project Management Institute]] (PMI). With four different levels of consultants, we are equipped to take on many different roles and provide a broad range of services including: project management training, mentoring, and on-site project office development. <br><br>
 +
 
 +
 
 +
'''Project Office Development'''
 +
 
 +
An internal [[Keyword::Project Management Office]] ([[Keyword::PMO]]) gives organizations the ability to achieve consistently successful results across their entire portfolio of projects-creating a foundation that can turn project management into a competitive advantage. Whether your organization is just beginning to explore the benefits of a formal [[Keyword::PMO]], or your existing PMO is not achieving the results management has intended, PMAlliance can help take your PMO to the next level.
 +
A Project Office fulfills two essential roles
 +
 
 +
    It provides enterprise-level [[Keyword::project management services]].
 +
    It serves as a project management center of excellence.
 +
 
 +
Implementing a formalized project [[Keyword::management]] process in an organization that has not used a structured approach to project planning and control can present significant challenges. Our phased approach to implementation helps companies overcome resistance to change, allows lessons learned in early phases to be incorporated in the systems installed in later phases, and ensures that a solid foundation of project-level data is available prior to rolling-up enterprise-level information.
 +
 
 +
PMAlliance uses four implementation phases: Initiation, Project-Level Installation, Enterprise-Level Installation, and Maintenance.<br>
 +
 
 +
The Initiation phase:
 +
 
 +
    Mobilizes the organization.
 +
    Remediates any current at-risk projects.
 +
    Sets the stage for the Installation phases.
 +
 
 +
This phase includes the selection of pilot projects that have the potential for near-term successes, and the communication of those success stories to the organization.<br>
 +
 
 +
The Project-Level Installation phase:
 +
 
 +
Provides a structured project planning and control process for all targeted projects.
 +
Creates the project management infrastructure necessary to support the consistent, successful application of project management<br>
 +
techniques by the Project Office on future projects.
 +
    Provides training and mentoring to the Project Office staff
 +
 
 +
The Enterprise-Level Installation phase:
 +
 
 +
    Creates the infrastructure necessary to support business decision-making based on schedule, resource, and cost information<br> "rolled-up" from the entire portfolio of projects.
 +
    Transitions the day-to-day responsibility for developing and maintaining individual project plans from PMAlliance to the Project<br> Office staff.
 +
 
 +
The Maintenance phase:
 +
 
 +
    Transitions the responsibility for supporting all of the project management requirements of the organization to the Project Office staff.
 +
    Ensures long-term continuity by establishing project management as a core competency and an essential function within the organization.
 +
 
 +
==PM Software ==
 +
PMAlliance tools make it easier for you to use [[Microsoft Project]] (MSP) and [[Primavera]] by introducing new features, enhancing existing ones and simplifying the user interface. You'll be able to update, analyze, review and communicate schedule information so you can better anticipate problems and opportunities.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
'''PMAlliance Software Add-in Tools'''
 +
 
 +
PMAlliance add-in tools improve the performance and reporting capability of [[Microsoft Project]] (MSP) and [[Primavera]] (P6 and P3) software. These tools enhance the ability of project teams to recognize and communicate schedule related opportunities, problems and issues.<br>
 +
 
 +
''Add-In Tools for MSP''
 +
 
 +
Anyone who has struggled with off-the-shelf systems knows an inordinate amount of time can be wasted trying to perform the simplest of tasks. While many project management tools are good for planning the initial schedule, sometimes it can be difficult to update the schedule, change resource allocations or modify activity durations.
 +
 
 +
Our Add-In Tools for MSP greatly enhance the update process and simplify resource assignment, calculation, analysis, validation, reporting and viewing.
 +
 
 +
PMAlliance reporting tools produce easy-to-read activity and cost reports for MSP. Whether you need to communicate detailed reports to active team members or top-level summary reports to senior management, our reporting tools deliver the right activity and cost information to meet everyone's needs.
 +
 
 +
Our Metrics Tool measures the health of a project by analyzing whether activities are being performed as scheduled, and whether slack is being preserved or consumed. The system generates reports that will allow you to analyze and track your project throughout its life cycle.
 +
 
 +
The PMAlliance Dashboard for MSP uses color-coded indicators to show the status of activities-completed, on-time (or early) or late. This report is an excellent early warning tool for managers to quickly identify and track at-risk activities.<br><br>
 +
 
 +
''Add-In Tools for Primavera''
 +
 
 +
PMAlliance reporting tools produce easy-to-read activity and cost reports for Primavera. Whether you need to communicate detailed reports to active team members or top-level summary reports to senior management, our reporting tools deliver the right activity and cost information to meet everyone's needs.

 +
 
 +
 
 +
'''PMAlliance Web Update System'''
 +
 
 +
Today, many project management update solutions require paper-based reporting and manual data entry. Our Web Update System automates this process for [[Microsoft Project]] (MSP) and [[Primavera]] (P6 and P3) users.
 +
 
 +
The PMAlliance Web Update System will allow you to:
 +
 
 +
    * Receive fast and reliable project updates from geographically dispersed project teams
 +
    * Enhance team communication
 +
    * Reduce guesswork resulting from incorrect or incomplete data
 +
    * Eliminate data entry errors during the update cycle
 +
    * Increase the amount of time Project Managers can spend analyzing and resolving schedule related problems
 +
 
 +
The update system consists of web-based data entry forms, an administration program to enable project managers to monitor the team's progress, a reporting tool to review update results and comments, and an interface program to automatically update MSP and Primavera project files. Team member workstations require only a browser and Internet access.

Project Management Consulting

PMAlliance has an impressive track record of providing our clients with proven project management consulting solutions that are both effective and cost-efficient. Not only do our consultants have the experience to roll-up their sleeves to help drive your high-priority project to successful completion, but they also have the expertise to mentor your personnel through the process of adopting a more structured approach.

Our consultants are required to be certified by the Project Management Institute (PMI). With four different levels of consultants, we are equipped to take on many different roles and provide a broad range of services including: project management training, mentoring, and on-site project office development.


Project Office Development

An internal Project Management Office (PMO) gives organizations the ability to achieve consistently successful results across their entire portfolio of projects-creating a foundation that can turn project management into a competitive advantage. Whether your organization is just beginning to explore the benefits of a formal PMO, or your existing PMO is not achieving the results management has intended, PMAlliance can help take your PMO to the next level. A Project Office fulfills two essential roles 

   It provides enterprise-level project management services.
   It serves as a project management center of excellence.

Implementing a formalized project management process in an organization that has not used a structured approach to project planning and control can present significant challenges. Our phased approach to implementation helps companies overcome resistance to change, allows lessons learned in early phases to be incorporated in the systems installed in later phases, and ensures that a solid foundation of project-level data is available prior to rolling-up enterprise-level information.

PMAlliance uses four implementation phases: Initiation, Project-Level Installation, Enterprise-Level Installation, and Maintenance.

The Initiation phase: 

   Mobilizes the organization.
   Remediates any current at-risk projects.
   Sets the stage for the Installation phases.

This phase includes the selection of pilot projects that have the potential for near-term successes, and the communication of those success stories to the organization.

The Project-Level Installation phase:

Provides a structured project planning and control process for all targeted projects. Creates the project management infrastructure necessary to support the consistent, successful application of project management
techniques by the Project Office on future projects. 

   Provides training and mentoring to the Project Office staff

The Enterprise-Level Installation phase: 

   Creates the infrastructure necessary to support business decision-making based on schedule, resource, and cost information
 "rolled-up" from the entire portfolio of projects.
   Transitions the day-to-day responsibility for developing and maintaining individual project plans from PMAlliance to the Project
 Office staff.

The Maintenance phase: 

   Transitions the responsibility for supporting all of the project management requirements of the organization to the Project Office staff.
   Ensures long-term continuity by establishing project management as a core competency and an essential function within the organization.

PM Software

PMAlliance tools make it easier for you to use Microsoft Project (MSP) and Primavera by introducing new features, enhancing existing ones and simplifying the user interface. You'll be able to update, analyze, review and communicate schedule information so you can better anticipate problems and opportunities.


PMAlliance Software Add-in Tools

PMAlliance add-in tools improve the performance and reporting capability of Microsoft Project (MSP) and Primavera (P6 and P3) software. These tools enhance the ability of project teams to recognize and communicate schedule related opportunities, problems and issues.

Add-In Tools for MSP

Anyone who has struggled with off-the-shelf systems knows an inordinate amount of time can be wasted trying to perform the simplest of tasks. While many project management tools are good for planning the initial schedule, sometimes it can be difficult to update the schedule, change resource allocations or modify activity durations.

Our Add-In Tools for MSP greatly enhance the update process and simplify resource assignment, calculation, analysis, validation, reporting and viewing.

PMAlliance reporting tools produce easy-to-read activity and cost reports for MSP. Whether you need to communicate detailed reports to active team members or top-level summary reports to senior management, our reporting tools deliver the right activity and cost information to meet everyone's needs.

Our Metrics Tool measures the health of a project by analyzing whether activities are being performed as scheduled, and whether slack is being preserved or consumed. The system generates reports that will allow you to analyze and track your project throughout its life cycle.

The PMAlliance Dashboard for MSP uses color-coded indicators to show the status of activities-completed, on-time (or early) or late. This report is an excellent early warning tool for managers to quickly identify and track at-risk activities.

Add-In Tools for Primavera

PMAlliance reporting tools produce easy-to-read activity and cost reports for Primavera. Whether you need to communicate detailed reports to active team members or top-level summary reports to senior management, our reporting tools deliver the right activity and cost information to meet everyone's needs.

Our Metrics Tool measures the health of a project by analyzing whether activities are being performed as scheduled, and whether slack is being preserved or consumed. The system generates reports that will allow you to analyze and track your project throughout its life cycle.


PMAlliance Web Update System

Today, many project management update solutions require paper-based reporting and manual data entry. Our Web Update System automates this process for Microsoft Project (MSP) and Primavera (P6 and P3) users.

The PMAlliance Web Update System will allow you to: 

   * Receive fast and reliable project updates from geographically dispersed project teams
   * Enhance team communication
   * Reduce guesswork resulting from incorrect or incomplete data
   * Eliminate data entry errors during the update cycle
   * Increase the amount of time Project Managers can spend analyzing and resolving schedule related problems

The update system consists of web-based data entry forms, an administration program to enable project managers to monitor the team's progress, a reporting tool to review update results and comments, and an interface program to automatically update MSP and Primavera project files. Team member workstations require only a browser and Internet access.
