For MD+A Consultants, Project Management means more than simply checking off items on a to-do list: it’s a comprehensive approach to managing risk and change, ensuring quality, communicating effectively, and keeping projects in scope and on budget while addressing new priorities.
MD+A’s project management methodology addresses every stage of the project lifecycle: from pre-project assessment to project close-out, our methods address such crucial project management processes as team management, client communication and risk assessment. Although rigorous, our project management methodology does not sacrifice flexibility and responsiveness: MD+A has specific procedures in place for managing all changes to a project, so that clients understand the precise impact on schedule, budget and scope implied by a requested change.
Our project management plans also include detailed schedules and procedures for communicating with all project decision makers and team members. Clients receive regular, detailed updates on project progress, summaries of decisions taken, and the implications of all project risks for delivery and quality, ensuring that the project stays in budget and in scope. Project team members receive regular feedback on performance and quality of work, so course corrections can be easily integrated into the project approach. By communicating with all project stakeholders in this way, we avoid unwelcome surprises for our clients at project close-out.
Of all the services offered by MD+A, Project Management is perhaps the most pervasive, directing all of our accumulated expertise and experience – and in this respect is also a project quality assurance methodology that underwrites the excellence of all our projects, large or small.
