The situation
The programme had changed leadership and finance ownership mid-flight. Role profiles were stuck in the previous phase, contractor costs were rising, silos had formed, and an audit was coming.
What we did together
A new PMO lead matched to the phase, refreshed methods and tooling, external contractors realigned to actual need, and engaged communities built through coaching, mentoring and training.
“The audit became a formality.”

PMO operating rhythm review.
What’s different now
Contracted resources down 43%, contractor spend down 34%, annual savings over £1.5m – and governance the auditors signed off.
