Project Management as a Service (PMaaS)
Welcome to P3B’s blog. This is a weekly blog with hints, tips and information about the world of project delivery. For this first blog, I thought I’d start at the beginning – what is Project Management as a Service?
Project Management as a Service
So, P3B Consulting provides Project Management as a Service (PMaaS). But what exactly is PMaaS?
PMaaS is designed to fit around your business needs. It’s a scalable project delivery service that can provide strategic support, project planning, management and execution of IT and business change project as well as ensuring the project is transitioned into live operation.
Our PMaaS model encompasses a flexible governance model, processes and reporting. Enabling us to tailor our services to your needs.
PMaaS differs from traditional project management resourcing as it is provided as a Service. You only pay for what you use. This lowers the cost of delivery to you substantially. We can provide resources for a project from ½ a day per week through to 5 days a week. It really is as flexible as that.
What are the benefits of using PMaaS?
- Reduces delivery costs and overhead when compared to traditional project management resource models.
- No resource management activities or costs required by your business – we provide the service to you. Scalable, repeatable delivery model, providing governance and assurance to you and your stakeholders
- External view of project risk management, ensuring appropriate mitigations are put in place
- Pay only for what you use with our consumption based commercial model
- Key management information and reporting provided through our PMO
- Resources can be onsite, remote or a combination of both.
Our qualified team will work with you initially to understand your requirements and then propose an appropriate delivery structure to meet your needs.
