Our Measurable Project Success

In our experience proper alignment to return on investment for the business is usually what is missing when project managers talk about their projects. Even worse it is why so many of the project team members we speak to are unsure of what their project is really about. Much to their dismay, this mis-alignment is why so many projects fail to fully deliver what the business expects to gain from its investment in the project. Understandably this results in disappointment and frustration all around, as no-one ever plans to fail.

ALIPRO project objective alignment is a first step change leading to project success. Through this approach we have enabled many business organizations to experience a culture change that has netted many significantly measurable benefits such as:

• Reducing product cost by 1/3 and increasing overall margin by 30% on a heavy equipment program
• Saving over $70 million in capital expenditure by focusing on the ROI ‘big picture’ for a Tier 1 supplier
• Identified a losing Joint Venture program, turned it around and achieved a 29% ROI
• Reduced cost management variance by over 50% on a month to month basis for an R&D business unit
• Increased project productively from 50 to 80% by centralizing project support activities for an IS division
• Retired 25% project work load due to non-relevant work for an engineering group
• Increased income and throughput by 50% internal and 100% 3rd party business, while only adding 25% more resource for a large R&D center
