I’m a technical project coordinator with more than 20 years of experience working at Microsoft as well as other organizations in Seattle. In my professional career,, I’ve been responsible for all aspects of a project from design and implementation. I’ve also had opportunities to establish a team of project managers as well as the templates that support them, along with procedures and training.
Together with a great team and delivering complete portfolios of projects in line with the project’s deadlines, within the scope, and of high quality. In many cases, I was faced with particular problems that required me to think quickly and modify strategies to meet the ever-changing demands of the businesses I’ve assisted.
As I began my journey with Artic Consulting last February, I was assuming that I would create the same kind of Project Management Office (PMO) that I’d previously created. However, when we began thinking outside the box and experimenting with different ideas, we decided to adopt an entirely different approach.
The team began bringing into the mix other expertise that isn’t part of the standard project management model, like review of revenue models, establishing financial infrastructure, as well as creating payments and invoice workflows that can be used by different kinds of businesses management. We looked at ways to design templates and standard procedures to create a comprehensive and consistent approach. Under the direction and guidance of our Chief Executive Officer, Brad Feldman, we were immediately able to implement these new capabilities effectively when working with a new client.
These activities are now referred to as Business Management Services in order to combine the various types of services into one consulting practice focused on managing every aspect of a company and its projects. It is receiving positive feedback from our client and also fulfilling other requirements. We offer these kinds of solutions to customers through various formalized service areas. These are services that cover not only traditional project management, but also management consulting, such as product strategy, business management and financial model design processes, engineering, as well as the integration of new systems into the business.
Business Management
Artic’s fundamental Business Management services include our ability to review and improve every aspect of a business’s goals as well as strategy as well as product roadmap, as well as revenue model. We can help formulate specific suggestions throughout the company, for example, the best way to listen to its customers better to enhance its offerings.
Our team applies the most effective practices, process improvement, and the latest technologies to help a business management stay ahead of the competition by implementing improved execution. We help companies to meet customer expectations quickly, using a range of concepts, and we also get feedback to determine the best way to implement them.
Program Management
Our BMS team can manage projects of all sizes and scopes for a company. We have a wealth of experience in various methods of project management, including Agile, Scrum, Kanban, and SAFe (Scaled Agile), plus traditional Waterfall projects. Our team is able to quickly comprehend the culture of your business management to provide the most appropriate recommendations for methodologies that fit into your existing workflow, while also generating innovative efficiencies.
We can initiate and mobilise an entire team of project workers to provide functions in short bursts. We can also manage the project’s size with many major milestones, and reduce risk to the schedule and costs. We aim to provide accurate and reliable estimates and schedules, and to deliver the project in line with scope, time, and budget.
We are also knowledgeable about Project Portfolio Management (PPM), which provides a complete picture of the entire project’s activities within an organisation. The well-established PPM tools can help ensure that programs and projects are in line with the business immediate and long-term objectives. We can use rigor at the program level to ensure that programs are efficient and effective across the entire organisation, but also in tracking the performance of projects using an executive-level dashboard tool.
Process Design and Improvements
Every business management activity is carried out through processes, regardless of whether they are ad hoc or established. Many processes can use any kind of improvement, whether small or big. If a process has been repeated often, the reasons for doing it in this manner are no longer valid.
Our BMS team can provide new eyes and perspectives on how both your staff and you perform. Sometimes, minor or incremental changes at the beginning of a process can result in massive efficiency improvements overall.
Artic helps to bring peace to chaos through new methods and by applying the latest technology and industry-leading practices. We often discover a new method to accomplish things that your team has never imagined.
It isn’t easy to get a group from a resistance to changes. It starts by listening to the team without prejudice. What is the reason they do they have a problem? Then we can demonstrate the advantages and move easily through the transitions. The aim is to ensure that everyone is on board and isn’t irritated by it.
Systems Integration
The process of acquiring and integrating the new product or service, intended to spur change in an organization of a significant size can be a huge problem. Sometimes, the technical aspects are complicated, or the effects on existing processes and employees is challenging to control.
We are a BMS team that is extremely proficient in adapting new systems to the culture of an existing business. We can help you integrate a new service or product, or suggest the most appropriate solution for your business management. We can work with solutions that require numerous modifications or a distinctive method of roll-out.
As an example, we’ve implemented a new customer Relationship Management (CRM) system to revolutionize the sales department at one of our clients. Through setting it up and using new tools and processes, they were able to significantly improve efficiency. Their CEO was able to make decisions that were strategic instead of spending his time coordinating manual processes.
