Project Recovery
Clients frequently encounter projects that fail to meet objectives in the form of stalled progress, out of control costs, scope creep or unmet goals. Mindstart understands the levels of frustration that build and often exacerbate the challenges of failed projects. Our experienced team has been engaged time and again to recover these efforts.

Mindstart's consultants have the insight and project recovery experience needed to "reset" the project to appropriate business need. Mindstart consultants will assess the in-process project and complete a net-change re-planning of the effort addressing business case, current market or budget expectations to ensure the that the project proceeds in adherence to valid project management standards and is completed with the desired outcome.
Our Approach
Our experienced program/project managers leverage Mindstart's proven project management tools and templates to help clients:
  • Re-establish the goals of the project
  • Understand the missteps in goal setting, project planning, scope definition, governance, or skill sets that led to it running astray
  • Re-set the political landscape to establish visible sponsorship and consequences for subtle or overt subterfuge
  • Re-set the project team and supporting teams internal or external to the company
  • Coach the project team and the project sponsor to reestablish project relevance and credibility
  • Provide direct project support as required:

    • Monitor compliance with established program standards and recommend corrective actions as needed
    • Coordinate the Program's projects with each other and with related initiatives in the areas of knowledge sharing, issue resolution and work plan synchronization
    • Provide overall control and coordination of project performance, progress tracking, budget control, and quality
