Project Delivery Methodology

At GOX, our project delivery methodology is based on fearless execution.  We embrace difficult projects with solid analysis and execution, enabling us to consistently deliver.

We can support your business by providing individual project managers or business analysts, service-based support, as well as fixed price project delivery, but our over-riding focus is always achieving the right results.  When we take on a project, we always ask the same question: what does your business stand to gain by the successful delivery of this project?  It’s this results focused approach that helps GOX really stand out from our competitors.

Our project delivery experts are entrepreneurial, results-driven professionals, who have at least 10 years of successful project and programme execution under their belts.  We select our people not only on their qualifications and track records, but also for their personality.  We adopt this approach because we know only too well that projects rarely fail because a project manager was neither qualified nor well trained.  Poor communication and stakeholder management are among the most common reasons for project failure.  

Of course we have the entire gamut of tools required to make your projects and programmes a success.  At GOX, our processes, templates and toolsets, grounded in Lean methodologies, as well as our obsession with process improvement really helps us stand out from the crowd.  Further, our focus on solid business analysis, stakeholder management, and the more ‘artistic’ side of project management means that you get much more than people who review Gantt charts and communicate minutes: you get people who can successfully deliver your programmes and projects while improving your business, and the people in it.

When it comes to successful project delivery, we never underestimate the need for strong stakeholder commitment, both at the leadership level and theexecution level.  It is our belief that virtually all business critical projects will fail without this commitment, and it is for this reason that we implement a whole variety of quality tools to ensure that every important stakeholder is on board.   Add to this the fact that our people make sure that they get the true buy-in of critical senior stakeholders as well as the full and accurate picture from key project participants, and you start to see where real GOX value is added.

What’s more, there’s the question of knowing what to measure.  At GOX, we believe that project success must be defined by metrics that demonstrate quantitative or qualitative business benefit.  It is entirely possible that a project will successfully hit all of its targets, but will ultimately fail because the metrics measured had little positive business impact.  At GOX we have some of the best business analysts in the market, covering the majority of industry and technology sectors. Every team member brings with them more than 10 years of experience delivering projects….both failures and successes.  Combine this with our Lean Six Sigma methodologies, and you can be certain that your project delivery results meet expectations.

At GOX we provide project delivery solutions as a service; as a fixed-price engagement, based on achieving mutually agreed goals; or as traditional team augmentation.  We work this way because we know that every project and every client is different and success relies on flexibility. This flexibility allows you select the services your project needs to succeed, as well as the opportunity to use and pay for those services only when you need them.
