Transform Your Project Management

Expert consulting and training to elevate your project delivery capabilities

Get Started

About Us

Though we are a young company, we are founded by globally seasoned professionals with nearly 30 years of IT delivery and project leadership experience.

Based and registered in Singapore, we bring the discipline, integrity, and innovation expected of a regional hub.

With a proven record in rescuing complex programmes and building delivery excellence across industries, we offer the agility of a start-up backed by decades of hard-won expertise.

Experience & Leadership

With nearly three decades of experience in the IT industry and over 18 years dedicated to global project and programme delivery, our team brings unparalleled depth and leadership to your most critical business initiatives.

We are not just consultants—we are solution architects, problem solvers, and transformation enablers. From multinationals in the US and UK to fast-paced environments in China, India and Singapore, our work consistently demonstrates a blend of strategic thinking, operational precision, and measurable impact.

Our unique value lies in our ability to translate complex project challenges into actionable outcomes—swiftly, decisively, and ethically.

Expertise

We specialise in project delivery, recovery, and programme governance.

Our team holds globally respected certifications including PMP, PRINCE2 Practitioner, CISSP, CCSP, and CISA, and the recent AITP qualification from NTUC to deliver certified IT and project management training.

Our knowledge base spans traditional PMBOK-aligned frameworks, Agile and Scrum methodologies, Scaled Agile implementation, and CMMi-aligned maturity improvements.

We offer comprehensive insight into project lifecycles, cybersecurity risk, compliance frameworks, and business-aligned delivery models

Tailored Approach

We understand that every business is different. That’s why we prioritise context. We do not offer one-size-fits-all advice.

Instead, we conduct in-depth discovery to understand your organisation’s structure, culture, risk appetite, and project landscape.

Whether you need a robust recovery framework for a failing initiative, PMO uplift, or specialised coaching for project teams, we ensure each solution is fit-for-purpose, scalable, and culturally aligned.

Measurable Results

Results are our currency. We have rescued programmes on the brink of collapse, accelerated delivery timelines by up to 40%, improved stakeholder satisfaction, and introduced metrics-driven governance models that align with DORA, ITIL, and industry best practices.

With an emphasis on post-engagement value measurement, our success is your sustained capability—not just a completed assignment.

Comprehensive project management solutions

Project Management Consulting

Our Project Management Consulting service is where strategy meets execution. With over 30 years of industry expertise—including 18 years delivering high-stakes programmes across the US, UK, China, Singapore, and India—we operate as an embedded partner, not a detached advisor. We specialise in resolving delivery bottlenecks, unifying fragmented initiatives, and aligning execution with executive vision.

We apply a blend of PMBOK principles, PRINCE2 governance, and Agile/Scaled Agile delivery patterns, offering customised consulting support in the following areas:

  • Programme Design & PMO Setup: We help establish scalable programme structures with fit-for-purpose governance, drawing on experience leading regulatory and transformation initiatives in global banks, telecommunications, and fintech environments.
  • Execution Frameworks: Whether it's waterfall, hybrid, or agile delivery, we design and implement frameworks that provide cadence, visibility, and delivery discipline—tailored to your maturity, risk profile, and team dynamics.
  • Stakeholder Engagement & Executive Reporting: We have successfully run C-level steering committees, redesigned reporting dashboards for clarity and impact, and coached project teams to better articulate issues, risks, and metrics that matter.
  • Risk, Compliance & Cybersecurity Awareness: Our consulting is informed by deep knowledge of regulatory frameworks such as MAS TRM, HKMA, NIST SP 800-53, and GDPR. We bring a strong GRC lens to every engagement, ensuring risks are not only tracked but meaningfully mitigated.
  • Value Realisation & Benefits Tracking: We don't just close projects—we ensure value is realised. From cost avoidance and stakeholder satisfaction to speed-to-market and regulatory alignment, we track and help clients report tangible business benefits.

Why choose us? Because we are value multipliers. We convert disjointed project efforts into unified, outcomes-driven delivery. Our experience in large, matrixed organisations gives us the clarity to see both forest and trees. We elevate your internal teams while building enduring capabilities—not just dependency. Our aim is simple: drive success today, build resilience for tomorrow.

Professional Training

Our Director is a certified NTUC AITP Instructor—authorised to deliver high-quality, industry-aligned training in IT and project management disciplines. The AITP certification stands as a recognised credential under Singapore's national skills framework, ensuring instructional standards are aligned with future-ready workforce development.

Drawing from hands-on delivery experience across startups, SMEs, and large multinational corporations, our training sessions integrate theory with real-world scenarios. We teach not just frameworks, but the logic behind them. Delegates benefit from:

  • Multi-methodology Fluency: Gain a working knowledge of PMBOK, PRINCE2, Agile, SAFe, and hybrid delivery models—essential for navigating today's blended project environments.
  • Practical Insights: Learn how to handle cross-cultural teams, stakeholder misalignment, and shifting regulatory demands.
  • Tips from the Field: Discover what decades of experience have taught us about managing executive expectations, handling scope creep, and using the right metrics to influence decision-making.
  • Career Enrichment: Courses are aligned with industry certifications and designed to boost professional credibility across project management, cybersecurity, and risk domains.

Training formats are flexible—ranging from workshops and executive briefings to structured certification preparation. Each course is interactive, hands-on, and immediately applicable.

PMO Optimization

An effective PMO (Project Management Office) is far more than an administrative layer—it is a strategic enabler. Our PMO Optimisation service focuses on transforming traditional project offices into centres of excellence that drive value, foster transparency, and align initiatives with enterprise goals.

We work with all types of PMOs—whether supportive, controlling, or directive—tailoring structures that fit your culture, maturity, and delivery complexity. Drawing on CMMi, SAFe 6 and OPM3 assessments, we analyse your current state and guide the optimisation of core functions including:

  • Portfolio Management: Prioritising initiatives, balancing capacity, and enabling executive visibility into project investments.
  • Project Cost & Benefit Realisation: Introducing robust financial controls, investment governance, and tracking ROI and non-financial benefits.
  • Reporting & Dashboards: Designing tiered reporting structures, from delivery teams to the boardroom, aligned to KPIs that matter.
  • Governance & Assurance: Embedding lifecycle reviews, risk checkpoints, and compliance audits to ensure accountability.
  • Tools & Templates Rationalisation: Harmonising fragmented processes and tools into streamlined, easy-to-adopt standards.
  • Capability Building: Training PMO staff and delivery leads to drive repeatable excellence in stakeholder management, benefits realisation, and project recovery.

Our expertise across financial services, telecommunications, government agencies, and emerging tech firms ensures that your PMO will scale with the business. Whether you need to establish a greenfield PMO, uplift a regional function, or transform legacy processes—we bring real-world execution knowledge to accelerate maturity and outcomes.

Project Recovery

This is where we excel. If your project is delayed, over budget, under-delivering, or stakeholder trust is eroding, we step in with a clear, fast-track recovery methodology:

  • Rapid Discovery: Identify root causes, not just symptoms
  • Stabilisation: Prioritise scope, team alignment, and stakeholder expectations
  • Relaunch: Re-structure the delivery plan and re-negotiate timelines
  • Execution Coaching: Guide teams through incremental wins until delivery is back on track

Our recovery expertise is not theoretical—it is grounded in real-world success stories:

  • Digital Banking Innovation Recovery: Led the turnaround of a first-of-its-kind digital banking project for a leading international bank. With the schedule and scope slipping by over six months, we restructured the delivery model and realigned the digital channels team to restore stakeholder confidence. The project was successfully delivered and received acclaim from senior leadership.
  • Wealth Management Platform Reboot: Orchestrated the recovery and full-scope delivery of a flagship wealth management initiative facing more than six months of slippage. By prioritising critical deliverables and implementing agile milestones, we brought the project back on track and ensured readiness for market launch.
  • Telecom Project Rescue in LATAM: Intervened in a highly visible telecommunications deployment for a major client in the LATAM region. With significant contractual penalties looming due to timeline overruns, we stabilised scope, introduced new progress governance, and executed an accelerated plan that resulted in an on-time launch—preserving reputational equity and averting substantial financial loss.

Our project recovery practice combines empathy with execution. We stabilise stressed teams, realign fractured plans, and inject fresh energy and discipline—turning crisis into opportunity, and delay into delivery.
