Our project management services

We deliver training in project management according to best practices and standards. Training sessions can be arranged customized to your needs, either individualized or open to the public.

Sometimes, due to the characteristics of an organization and/or its policies, it is necessary to appoint an external advisor to supervise the delivery of commitments made by the project executor and the client. 

We possess methodologies, experienced professionals and tools designed to perform this supervision, and generate monitoring reports as required.

RSM offers companies the option of PMO outsourcing, by setting up a System of Project Management on its platform, and providing different connection alternatives to clients interested in this modality.

In today’s environment, many organizations do not have trained resources for undertaking a large and complex project. Frequently, companies contact RSM searching for an ally to direct their projects, since they require additional help for coordinating the different aspects that a project entails, such as its scope, timing, costs, quality standards, resources, communications, acquisitions and stakeholders.

Many projects fail prior to their start up, because Organizations initiate them without having even established and prioritized all the components of the project, taking as reference its purpose, scope, resources, and management mechanisms to be utilized for guaranteeing the achievement or the objectives proposed.

Preliminary steps to lay down the foundations for a successful project should follow some concrete and basic phases:

Sometimes organizations have to decide whether to continue or cancel a project. 

This circumstance generally arises when a long execution time has lapsed without having tangible achievements, generating extra costs, uncertainties, and a breakdown in the morale of the work team. 

In order for organizations to adopt a properly supported decision, RSM provides diagnostic services of the project, carrying out an integral diagnosis of the status, and submitting recommendations about the findings, as well as of the decision the company should take on the project’s continuity.

We have the tools necessary for evaluating the maturity of project management within organizations, based on fundamental aspects such as: Policies, procedures, standards, resources, training programs, and certifications, among others. 

Upon concluding the evaluation, a recommended action plan is generated.

In cases where projects have practically come to a halt, but which the organization needs to conclude, RSM provides expert specialized advice to carry out an objective analysis of the situation, and propose the necessary steps to re-launch the project, incorporating all necessary aspects for achieving successful completion.

Implementation of a new project, changes in work systems, mergers and acquisitions, and related strategic decisions, have significant impacts over internal and external clients of the Organization, which shall be approached adequately. RSM has a Organizational Change Management Methodology, which emphasizes Communication Management, Impact Management and Training Management.

The adequate approach to these aspects seeks to minimize rejection of new working modalities, and to maximize time and money aiming at generating value.

RSM can automate project management with the support of well-known information technology tools, such as SharePoint. Project Management process automation allow companies to achieve an outstanding success percentage of their strategic initiatives.

When companies decide not to implement a Project Management Office, but still require the adoption of a rigorous formal project management process, RSM assists in defining and implementing a corporate project management model comprising processes, procedures, formats and indicators. These help to formalize management inside the company, and homogenize the stages to be followed in each project.

At cutting-edge organizations it is common that the need to implement new projects arises, and in many occasions in house managers are assigned to conduct them, without having received formal training, or without specific experience in Project Management. RSM provides personalized, coaching-type accompaniment for knowledge transfer and tools for the new project managers, and personalized sessions focused on acquiring the skills and knowledge required for achieving success.
