Project & Program Recovery | Delivery Assurance & PMO Advisory
When a project goes sideways, the people inside it are usually too close to see why. You may be behind schedule, over budget, facing delivery challenges, or simply not performing as well as it could. You need an experienced, independent set of eyes—someone who's seen these challenges before and knows how to help you find a way forward. HOW I HELP • Project & Program Recovery: Find the real root causes, not just the symptoms, and build a recovery plan your team can actually execute. • Independent Health Checks & Delivery Assurance: An objective view of where your initiative truly stands, the risks ahead, and what leadership needs to know to make informed decisions. • Governance & PMO Advisory: Strengthen oversight and reporting so problems surface early instead of late. • Process & Performance Improvement: Remove the friction in workflows, handoffs, and resourcing that quietly slows delivery. THE APPROACH: DIAGNOSE. PRIORITIZE. REPOSITION. I listen first, connect the underlying issues, and give you a clear, prioritized plan, not a binder of findings. WHAT YOU GET Clarity on where your initiative stands, better-informed decisions, a clearer understanding of delivery risks, and practical recommendations your team can put into action. EXPERIENCE THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE Four decades leading initiatives from small teams to multimillion-dollar global transformations, with Ernst & Young, PwC, North Highland, and Capgemini (where I served as Chief of Staff to the Global Cyberdefense Center COO), and for Fortune 500 companies including Anthem, Nestlé, CSX, and Southwest Airlines, as well as U.S. state and federal agencies. Highlights: • Independent oversight of a $125m state Medicaid system through go-live. • A Class 1 railroad modernization delivered in record time, reducing operating costs by 25%. • An award-winning global program delivered entirely remotely. Experienced across Agile (including scaled Agile) and traditional delivery. American consultant based in France, working across U.S. and global time zones. Let's talk about where your initiative is challenged and how to move it forward.
