How can I help?

Where I can help

Project, product and process management are the areas where I can help you to get more than you have now.
There is always a space for improvement!

If you need an experienced consultant who will review your projects and organizations contact me.

How I can help

I can manage your projects as an IPMA professional, support your agile projects as a SCRUM master, optimize your business processes as an IDIL professional, lead your product development teams, help in the requirements and configuration management. You need more? I will find the right solution for you!

If you need my help just let me know.

Why I can help

I have years of experience in the international project management, product management and prozess optimization (e.g. supporting the CMMI certification in one of companies I worked). I am former representative of three companies at the OMG, former team, group and competence center leader, profound system architect and programmer, and finally I am certified professional in IPMA, SCRUM and ITIL .

Convinced? Don't wait and drop a message.

What you can get?

On-site consulting and advisory

From time to time everyone needs help on site.
It may be discovering untapped opportunities in your project organization, analysing errors in recent projects, or introducing agile project development as a new way to solve the problems you now face.
I can visit you for a predefined period of time and assist you with the above-mentioned investigations.
I help you with classic projects (waterfall) as well as with agile small and large, distributed projects

Remote consulting and advisory

Usually, after having a short on-site support, customers need remote advisory to stay on track while implementing recommendations generated during the on-site support.
I can provide you remote advisory on a monthly retainer basis so you may discuss your issues and challenges as they appear.
I will give you practical advice based on over 20 year practice in different industries and help you to determine what work should be done in your particular situation.

Problem investigation audits

Do you have problems with your projects, such as delivery delays, lack of functionality, low quality or budget overrun?
I may need an experienced expert who will independently analyse these projects and propose improvements, as well as point out the hidden bottlenecks that everyone knows, but no one is talking about them e.g. coteries and other informal relationships.
You can hardly find these kinds of obstacles using your own reviewers and auditors.


The Best Way to succeed in projects – satisfy your customer!

Let the work be done by professionals.

Regardless whether your project builds a mission-critical system or not, you need someone who knows how to lead a complex, distributed and – in most cases – international IT project.
