Greenleaf IT Consulting: Mapping Good Practices with Project Management Solutions

Organizations need to embrace big change”, says Juan Loaiza, the Senior Vice President at Oracle. The Oracle Technologies, after pounding for more than 27 years, is helping to refine the market as it exists today. With this perspective, Loaiza thinks that the careers of developers, architects, and IT implementers will depend on how well they prepare for the “big waves sweeping through the industry.
It is only during the consulting engagement with clients, one discovers, that lack of well laid out Project management processes and its mapping with project management tools, greatly hinders the efficiency of the project teams.  Project centric organizations,  more often than not,  have implemented project management software , but haven’t travelled that extra mile of mapping their unique processes with those software, resulting in sub-optimization results.(.  Not syncing the process with software generates colorful reports, which are neither insightful nor actionable, leading to their silent death.
Successful organizations, across the world, have a proven Project management competency development framework at its core. The framework steers all the critical aspects of project management in the right direction, including PM competency development programs, PM process design and mapping the processes to PM software. These organizations engage all the project stakeholders (clients, Contractors & Sub-contractor, PMCs, architects and services consultants) in a seamless project system thereby reducing process delay and communication gap, saving project time and money. In today’s ever-changing business scenario, it becomes increasingly important to design Project Management Office (PMO) framework, develop metrics and good practices for each of the five processes of the project lifecycle.
One of the best Oracle Construction and Engineering Solution Providers, that has pioneered the concept of Primavera enabled PMO, is Greenleaf IT Consulting.
