Portfolio Project Management: The Answer to Resource Constraints

If you are frustrated by the lack of available resources or by other departments stealing your resources, Portfolio Project Management (PPM) may ease the situation.

PPM is a process that helps business strategically prioritize all projects throughout the organization. The goals of this process are:

To become aware of individual projects within the portfolio
To gain a better understanding of the “big picture”
To sort priorities based on strategic objectives
To optimize resource provisioning

Our professional, experienced project managers utilize time-tested methods and reliable, repeatable processes to accurately inventory, analyze, and prioritize projects, ensuring proper alignment with current business needs.

Data Center Relocation: Proper Planning is Key

Moving a data center is a significant and complex undertaking with many hours devoted to planning, administration, paperwork, and the move itself. Without a clear understanding of all the steps involved, you run the risk of losing business critical data or being offline for hours, days, or weeks — a situation that could cost your company thousands, even millions!

Consonus can provide the skilled support needed to manage the project planning effort. In addition to leading the overall project, the Consonus project manager can provide knowledge transfer to your internal contact and technical team. This helps to alleviate future changes that may be required after the relocation is complete.
