Project management can sometimes drift into situations where challenges threaten the achievement of goals. In these situations, an experienced expert can play a decisive role in the progress of the project.
With the help of proper situation analysis, planning and Granit's expert management, a derailed project can be successfully brought to the finish line.
In the first phase of a project in a challenging situation, an expert assesses the project's current situation. This includes review of project documents such as budget, work plan, schedule and progress reports, and interviews with team members and stakeholders. With the help of interviews, risks and challenges are identified and the expectations of the parties about the future of the project are clarified. In addition, a root cause analysis is performed to find out the underlying factors, such as inadequate planning, insufficient resources, or other challenges that have pushed the project off track.
Based on the situation analysis, the expert updates the plans, including schedules, resource plans and the budget, so that they better correspond to the prevailing realities. At the same time, a detailed action plan is prepared, which presents concrete steps for the smooth progress of the project. If necessary, the expert can also recommend restarting, modifying or even terminating some parts of the project, if they have proven to be challenging in terms of the project's progress.
The newly prepared action plan will be implemented and its progress will be closely monitored. In projects, it is important to set clear metrics and goals, the realization of which is monitored regularly, in order to ensure that the project progresses according to the plan.
Effective communication is key, especially in crisis management, and it is important to ensure that all project parties are aware of updated plans, goals and schedules. Transparent information flow creates trust and reduces misunderstandings, which can slow down the project. An experienced expert knows how to plan and implement communication in such a way that information flows quickly and clearly to all stakeholders.
Once the project is back on track, an ex post evaluation is conducted to gather lessons learned and improve processes for future projects. This step ensures that the experience gained is utilized effectively and project management practices are further developed with the future in mind.
Granitit's experienced expert quickly identifies the root causes of challenges and implements the necessary changes to plans and develops effective monitoring models.
