Project Management Approach, Office and Training

     
 

  provides project management support and coordination.  The most efficient and effective way to manage IT projects when budgets are tight and resources are limited is with a streamlined and comprehensive Project Management Approach, a coordinated Project Management Office (PMO), and an effectively trained project management team. Project Management provides organizations with an inclusive methodology to resourcefully manage IT projects of any size and type.  Just like a coordinated PMO empowers your organization to formalize IT project delivery, as well as fully integrates portfolio management and project management throughout the agency.  MTG Management Consultants, L.L.C., can help you develop a project management framework proven to help facilitate such efficiency and effectiveness.

 
 

Our most recent project management projects include the following:

 
 
  • MTG is assisting the California Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC) with the development of a PMO to manage its California Court Management System (CCMS) project. Our activities were integrated with industry best practices from the Project Management Institute and the Software Engineering Institute. The results should include increased confidence in effective, efficient, and timely delivery of IT projects. The PMO will give the AOC the necessary infrastructure and processes that will enable the organization to accurately monitor the CCMS project progress.

     

  • MTG assisted the Wisconsin Department of Corrections (DOC) with the development of a Project Management Office (PMO) to manage its IT investments. Our activities were integrated with industry best practices from the Project Management Institute, Software Engineering Institute, and the IT Governance Institute. The results included: Heightened awareness and understanding of project management throughout the organization; A unified, phased approach to managing projects of all types and sizes; A documented project management methodology; Electronic templates that link to the methodology; A series of “turn-key” training modules that WI DOC staff can deliver; Increased confidence in effective, efficient, and timely delivery of IT projects.

     
  • MTG assisted the Oregon State Legislature with managing a software development project aimed at replacing a legacy committee agenda scheduling application. The objective was to design, develop, and implement an information system that facilitated the formation and maintenance of legislative committees, as well as enabled the uniform creation of committee agendas. At the end of this engagement, the client had successfully built and implemented a fully functional committee agenda scheduling system.
 
  • MTG provided both project management and quality assurance services over the course of this multiyear engagement to the executive-level steering committee chaired by the Attorney General. MTG managed the project for the first 2 years, while the state was both initiating the work and developing the design. A state CJIS project director was then hired for the remainder of the assignment, and MTG provided periodic quality assurance services.

     
  • MTG designed and implemented an office to oversee and coordinate project management activities within the Washington Department of Licensing. The agency actively manages 15 to 20 information technology projects concurrently each year and needed a way to coordinate all of them to meet overall business objectives. Implementation of the project management office resulted in significantly improved performance of that function within the Department of Licensing.

     
  • MTG provided overall management of a state-wide criminal justice information systems project for the state of Kansas. The project was a $10 million coordinated effort to replace the state’s infrastructure supporting criminal justice information. Overall, it included 25 tactical projects that were identified in the strategic plan, also developed by our firm. These tactical projects included replacement of the state’s Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS); implementation of a new state message switch and law enforcement telecommunication network; replacement and integration of the adult and juvenile criminal history repositories and the incident-based reporting repository; and development of common local applications for law enforcement, prosecutors, and supervision officers. MTG’s project management involvement resulted in the creation and development of a very well-structured project, which is being implemented via a number of large vendor contracts across the state.
