Project Planning and Mobilization

Whether building the tallest building in the world, or installing the next blockbuster software application, the successful outcome of either depends upon the effort, care and skill applied during the initial planning phase. Starting with a specification of the future state vision, and the problems or issues to be addressed, each endeavor requires the development of a thorough project plan and a realistic schedule. At the core of the planning process, there is a need to establish clarity relative to the goals and objectives, measurements, roles and responsibilities, timing of project phases, and early delivery of benefits to the organization. Developing the optimal Project Plan and Schedule can be viewed as the first stage of Quality Assurance as you identify and mitigate risks in the very foundation of the project. Putting the appropriate level of effort into this phase will help develop momentum toward the organizational objectives, and develop the champions across your organization to sustain that momentum.
