I can firmly recommend Fred and 7Q PMO approach. As a business, we needed to add improvements to our current and future projects. Fred and the team came in to build and support a platform that allowed us to review, measure, agree, and plan projects, with clear data and transparency around each step and stage. It added massive value in the planning and implementation areas, and also in the review and results.
This ensured we were not just managing projects better but had a firm process and platform that was simple to update and use.

In our case we needed to redefine and develop PM Process, Governance and Reporting Tools in line with the transformation of our business from a manufacturer of traditional products to a project-based technology company. On a personal level he helped to instil confidence in me to take forward what I had learned and apply it to affect a positive culture change within our business, which has received good feedback not just within the internal senior management team but across the wider Paragon exec.

Fred’s framework and governance process were crucial in regaining control over our projects and spending. The structured 7Q framework not only brought coherence to our projects but also improved internal relationships and communication. We saw a significant improvement in managing client expectations and altering project courses when necessary. The weekly heartbeat established by Fred in our PMO Board provided consistency and allowed us to focus on other critical business areas.
