EPM Solutions Practice

The business value returned from an Enterprise Project Management (EPM) implementation is driven by an organization's ability to manage and absorb the associated cultural, organizational and process changes rather than just the technology installation itself. Our Pcubed DeliveryHub Solutions provide a perfect answer for extending your EPM software to provide a more comprehensive, flexible solution.

Pcubed's approach is to implement EPM functionality using a holistic approach which includes development of organizational project management maturity and building EPM solution capability iteratively so that the implementation has the best possible rate of adoption.

Pcubed's extensive experience in implementing EPM solutions, with "hands on" project and program delivery is part of our core business. We know how to appropriately and pragmatically apply these tools from a user perspective, to maximize business value from your EPM investment.

All our deployments leverage global best practice, with our certified consultants backed by a subject matter expertise network which includes a number of Microsoft's EPM Most Valued Professionals (MVP's), a dedicated EPM technical support team, and a large group of professionals living and breathing EPM implementation daily. That's why we have previously been awarded Microsoft's EPM Partner of the Year and are a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner with the EPM specialization.

Our Enterprise Project Management (EPM) practice is focused on helping you with the following challenges:

› Assessing & Planning

You understand the business problem, and believe an EPM toolset could be the answer, but how do you deliver it? Obtaining buy-in to a solution is often difficult where there are multiple stakeholders, no shared vision of what the solution will be, or any tangible view of how it would operate. Sometimes EPM tool evaluation becomes bogged down in the minutia of feature comparison and organizational politics, without actually proving out the value of the tool.

A successful deployment starts with defining a strong, clear vision, scope, and roadmap for deployment. Pcubed's packaged offerings can help you quickly assess and scope your EPM deployment through our Rapid Solution Envisioning or further evaluate and plan your deployments through our Jumpstart Proof of Concept services.

› Deploying & Supporting

Successful deployment is not just about the technology, but integration with supporting processes, and adoption by the user base.

Pcubed's EPM Deployment offering include the full gamut of services, including solution design, technical implementation, training, process integration, and change management activities.

Key to maintaining the value of your investment in EPM is the ongoing support of the solution, not just the technical administration but, data quality assurance, analysis and reporting, and introduction of associated best practice techniques (scheduling, risk management, etc) and up-skilling of users. Pcubed provides ongoing support services from establishment, skilling and staffing of EPM helpdesks and PMO roles, to Deployment Health Checks.

› Extending & Integrating

Anyone who has undertaken bespoke development or customization to improve a COTS (commercial off-the-shelf) product knows it can quickly chew up time and money, particularly when you are unfamiliar with the technology, or undertaking complex integration.

Our Pcubed DeliveryHub Solutions provides the perfect platform for extending your EPM software to provide a more comprehensive, flexible solution.

Pcubed provides a range of cutting edge technical products and toolkits, as well as development services to enhance the functionality of your EPM solution out of the box, at low cost, and help shortcut the integration of your EPM solution with other line of business systems (ERP, HR, CRM, etc).
