Major Programmes that deliver for people

NextGen Delivery, powered by Programme Aerodynamics® 

Major Challenges. Major Programmes.

Major programmes shape society. They are the vehicles through which organisations deliver their biggest transformations and governments enact their most important policies.

However, in an increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) world, most programmes of scale fail to deliver the desired outcomes and required benefits on time and within budget.

The problem with major programmes

75%

Programmes don’t go wrong, they start wrong.

The world has changed, yet the fundamentals of programme management haven’t for over 50 years. Traditional methods are increasingly inadequate for delivering large-scale, complex programmes.

Programmes exist in complex delivery ecosystems. A different approach is needed to optimise these delivery ecosystems and avoid hard-coding failure into a programme's DNA from the outset.

Our NextGen delivery approach drives intelligent decision making with digital tools and brings together multidisciplinary teams to create an efficient and harmonious ecosystem that is critical to delivering programmes faster, better and cheaper.

Programme Aerodynamics®

Based on our experience solving some of the most complex problems for clients, we have created a next generation delivery framework designed to nurture the conditions for success for the world’s largest programmes.

Programme Aerodynamics® combines new thinking and technologies with best-in-class programmatic disciplines to create a forward-looking, data-driven and human centred delivery capability.

Intelligence-led decision-making is at its heart, helping to significantly reduce risk and support the dynamics required to deliver at pace.

Five core elements work together dynamically to minimise friction and effectively lead and manage major programmes.

Your delivery ecosystem’s strategic hub and ‘guiding mind’. It uses data and simulation to predict and adapt to change, ensuring your organisation stays ahead of the curve and delivers maximum value.

A detailed schematic of your transformation landscape in its entirety. This provides a deeper understanding and insight into the flexibility in the system, determining which levers can be pulled to maintain course toward the desired outcome when inevitable disruption occurs.

The optimal blend of programmatic core disciplines, methods and tools contained in the PMBOK that form the foundation of successful delivery. 

Combines new thinking and digital technologies with “best in class” established programmatic disciplines to create a robust, forward-looking data driven capability with intelligence-based decision making at its heart.

Puts people at the heart of your transformation, creating a harmonious and high performing delivery ecosystem at every stage of the evolving lifecycle.​ Enables information and data flow, and encourages minimum viable bureaucracy, empowering decision-making at the point of most intelligence.
