For the effective delivery of change
Parkwell has strong experience of delivering high value change projects in media, retail, logistics and the public sector. We have additionally worked in the voluntary sector and telecommunications.
Employing only experienced consultants (often recruited from the Big Four consultancies), we are ideally positioned to deliver benefits to our clients while building relationships that enable us to understand their strategies, culture and needs. We work with our clients to achieve measurable improvements in their businesses using our proprietary methodologies and relevant industry standards. We work with you to enhance your business operations through the effective management of change to processes, systems and working practices.
Services designed to deliver
Our approach is always tailored to your requirements and goals. Some of the services we regularly provide include:
- Project Management – Project management is the science of ensuring that projects are delivered on time, on budget and to the required level of quality. Our comprehensive and proven approach is based on PRINCE2, with the flexibility for our experienced consultants to tailor the methodology to meet your business objectives. The responsibility of the project manager is to use the tools, methods and techniques to support the project through its life cycle to successful delivery. Parkwell’s consultants are expert and highly experienced project managers, dedicated to delivering projects with measurable benefits to your business.
- Programme Management – Programme management is the skill of ensuring that multiple, complex, projects, often with tight deadlines, are delivered on time, on budget and to the required level of quality. Our hands-on approach to programme management is designed to enable your organisation to gain and retain control of all project activity and to create an environment in which projects will succeed. Our programme management services are designed to connect project work to the overall organisational structure and decision-making process of your business.
- Selection – Parkwell can help you to define your business requirements and identify the most appropriate packages, services, suppliers or implementation partners. Our consultants are experts in IT systems selection, and our independence from supplier partnerships means that you will receive impartial advice resulting in the most relevant and cost-effective solution for your business.
- Business Continuity Planning – Business continuity and disaster recovery planning prepare your organisation to resume normal business operations as soon as possible after an incident. We work with you to devise formal, tested procedures to respond to a variety of scenarios and mitigate the economic effects of external disaster.
- Business Process Reviews – We will determine how the business processes of an organisation can be streamlined and efficiency improved so that, for example, they can be performed with fewer staff members while remaining scalable to meet growth plans.
- Finance Health Check – Our own methodology is designed to help you measure the performance of your finance function and identify areas for improvement. The key aims are to minimise the effort expended on mandatory activities and maximise the effort applied to value-adding activities.
- Finance Transformation – Parkwell can help you to streamline your finance function and align it more effectively with the business, while making sure the department runs in a cost-effective and controlled manner. We have extensive experience in setting up finance shared service centres and merging finance functions.
- Finance Systems Strategy – Parkwell has successfully specified and procured systems and services for many clients. Our methodology is flexible and ensures rapid execution of the selection process.
- Management Information – Our approach to MI design and implementation is to gain an understanding of your business strategy and key performance measures, review your existing MI to determine content, quality, relevance and reliability, and to redefine reporting to focus on consistency, exception reporting and accountability.
- IT Health Check – Parkwell’s methodology takes a snapshot of your IT function to determine how well it matches up to your business objectives and to best practice. We also offer virtual IT Director services.
- IT Strategy – Our own methodology will develop your IT strategy to align with your business plans and goals. We can review your existing IT function and identify strategic opportunities where IT could be used more efficiently or be enhanced to improve your business operations.
