Project Cycle Optimisation™

Project Cycle Optimisation™ (PCO) is our unique model for large scale, software developments. Developed over a 5 year period, PCO™ is based on real life challenges - not hypothetical issues. Optimising any project requires the successful combination of several factors - commercial needs, process, technology and people. Working together, they deliver excellent systems that set new standards. Apart they create headaches and expensive project failures.  

We break PCO™ down into 7 distinct principles. It can be used in its entirety or as a combination of steps to address specific project needs:

  1. Outstanding Requirements Gathering – Accuracy from the start.
    (See Chameleon Chart Sample ).
  2. Team Goal Alignment - Building the right team with all the stakeholders to set the right targets.  
  3. Communimatics - Creating role dialogues that are clear, automated and fanatical. 
  4. Improved Production Chain – Enabling stage hand-offs that save money and time.
  5. Skills Management – Re-purposing people (trans-project). Maximising output.
  6. Mentality Shifts – Unleashing the true power of your selected process.
  7. Positive Rule Breaking - Where project adaption becomes innovation.

With PCO™, your project’s commercial and technical teams are visible and involved at every waypoint, guaranteeing that the entire production chain is comprehensively optimised, Once a successful implementation is achieved, our staff, tools and project documentation ensures that tangible practises and skills are retained by you for use on future projects.
