Program Management

Create big-picture strategy

iQ-iA’s first step is to identify the problem you face and define the vision for a solution. This process is critical to ensure all team members share a common understanding of the project and agree upon its specific goals.

Define project scope

Together we define your beginning and end points. We analyze options; develop resources, time, and cost estimates; and agree on deliverables, all of which help prevent costly scope creep.

Design robust plans and schedules

iQ-iA develops comprehensive plans that serve as a roadmap for your entire project. These plans link interdependent activities and personnel, internally and across third parties. Such precise input enables us to coordinate interconnections and identify bottlenecks or other obstacles that need to be addressed.

Develop business justification

Few businesses invest without considering their return. iQ-iA works proactively with you to document your project’s value, from cost savings to increased sales to quicker turnaround.

Mitigate risks

To avoid “fighting fires,” iQ-iA identifies potential project risks early on. We then quantify the magnitude and likelihood of your risks and determine how to prevent or quickly respond to them.

Drive plan execution

The planning mean nothing if on-the-ground execution falls short. This is especially so the more complex the project and varied the stakeholders. Our project leaders work on-site and accept direct responsibility for managing schedules and budgets, proactively tracking and resolving issues, and capturing project metrics.

Orchestrate communications

We don’t let functional silos or time zones impede our ability to communicate. iQ-iA develops a formalized communications structure that defines who needs to know what and when, and creates project-specific channels for sharing information. Transparency is key. The team then can agree upon goals, raise and resolve issues, and become a cohesive group across functions and facilities.

Build team unity

iQ-iA professionals use well-honed facilitation skills to work through conflict and political pressures to reach mutual decisions in support of project goals. As an objective third party with no agenda of its own, iQ-iA can serve to bring disparate individuals and teams to consensus.

Program Management

All project management consulting firms are not equal.

iQ-iA is not confined by the boundaries of industry or functional areas. In fact, our key differentiators set us apart regardless of project type.

Integrated

TAt iQ-iA, we don’t hand you a plan and walk away. Our professional project managers work on-site and are committed to the success of your most complex projects. We seamlessly integrate into your teams and have the business acumen required to ensure your project goals align with your company’s strategy.

Leadership

We take on your initiatives and drive your projects, allowing you to focus your time and energy where they’re needed most. Our objective leaders ask the tough questions to keep your organization progressing. We lead your projects and your teams.

Knowledge & insight

We know project management. We helped shape the field of project management consulting more than 20 years ago. The majority of our project managers are PMP-certified and many have Six Sigma certification. But we don’t rest on our laurels. Our employees receive ongoing training and attend industry conferences to keep them abreast of evolving best practices.

Proven results

We can help you meet critical goals that impact your bottom line. We’ve cut timelines in half, salvaged strategic alliances on the brink of collapse.

Collective intelligence

When you entrust your project to us, you become the beneficiary of knowledge accumulated from 50+ projects across more than 25 clients. Our experience not only informs our current practices, but enables us to continually hone our methodologies.

Critical thinkers

Rather than a pre-packaged formula, you need a solution that fits your industry, your company and your corporate strategy. iQ-iA’s project managers are problem solvers who create practical and realistically implemented plans that meet your needs.

Trust

Ethics and honesty have been the foundation of our company since our inception. But don’t take our word for it. We have received awards from the Better Business Bureau and The Wall Street Journal for the values reflected in our conduct and practices. You can confidently entrust your most critical projects to us.
