NEW COOPERATION MAKES WAY FOR MORE SUCCESSFUL PROJECTS
Many organisations find project delays both common and costly. Semcon is now launching a cooperation with Velocity Management Group (VMG) in order to strengthen the project management offering. The objective: for more projects to deliver on time.
“We are pleased to launch a cooperation with VMG. Their innovative cloud-based resource planning tool is a perfect complement to our project management offering, where we provide training and manage projects in many different industries. We can now work together to help more companies to achieve success with their projects by means of both strategic and practical tools,” says Anna Nordelöf, departmental manager at Semcon.
According to a report from the Standish Group, organisations fail to achieve their objectives in as many as one in four projects, which results in delays and increased costs. One of the reasons for this is that many organisations need to manage several different projects at the same time, with key personnel who are needed simultaneously by the projects. This creates a complexity that is difficult to manage without smart support systems.
“With the help of our digital platform, Velocity, the organisation maintains a constantly updated overview of all its projects and resources thanks to intelligent algorithms. This makes it easy to prioritise initiatives, which is a prerequisite for project success,” says Lars Peterson, CEO at Velocity Management Group.
Semcon has developed a project methodology known as XLPM, which provides structure and support for more efficient projects in both the public and the private sectors. The offering also includes change management, project tools, training and senior specialists who work at the client’s premises.
