Your partner in PPM excellence

What is Strategic Advisory Consulting?

Our Strategic Advisory Consulting services help you achieve your PPM goals by partnering you with a KeyedIn expert to assess and improve your current practices, develop a roadmap for success, and enhance the effectiveness and maturity of your PPM solution. In this way, we help ensure alignment between your objectives and overall business strategy.

As such, our strategic services can help with a myriad of goals, such as:

driving successful project delivery
optimizing resource utilization
aligning with organizational goals
developing or refining governance frameworks and performance metrics
facilitating change management and user adoption
improving competitive positioning and overall performance

Organizations of all sizes, industries, and project management maturity levels can benefit from strategic advisory consulting.

In order to cater to our clients’ varying needs, we offer a diverse mix of Strategic Advisory Consulting packages, as well as ad-hoc services. Many of our Strategic Advisory Consulting packages follow a standard approach:

Review of current state
Determination of desired future state
Delivery of personalized guidance and recommendations based on business context

As a result, we provide a documented roadmap, as well as strategies and approaches to achieve those desired outcomes. Following the consultation, your organization can implement our recommendations yourself, engage us to implement, or engage a third party (such as one of our technological partners) to implement.
