QOREX Business Management Software - OverviewPhil Trickey
What is QOREX?
QOREX is the complete business management software for strategy, delivery and performance. You can plan at the highest strategic, or lowest operational & project level. Manage the delivery of those plans. Track and measure performance across your organisation.
How is QOREX different? QOREX enables you to focus specifically on areas of strategy, delivery or performance. Unlike other separate, disjointed software tools, it maintains that essential golden thread of connection and coherence between them. Consequently, your organisation develops a single version of the truth from strategy to delivery. Your organisation makes better decisions, improves performance and is more successful in the delivery of its vision.
In what way can QOREX be used?
QOREX enables you to distill your strategy into Objectives, Measurable Results and Enabling activities. You can see your whole business in the round and it enables you to focus on actively managing the details that interest you the most. Examples of how QOREX can be used include:
• Strategic & business planning
• Portfolio, programme and project management
• Performance, delivery and risk management
• Collaboration, accountability and governance
• Benefits realisation
QOREX is a securely hosted, true web-based system enabling it to be accessed from any device that has access to the internet.
Why QOREX?
It became apparent to founder Phil Trickey that as organisations wrestle with external pressures and internal demands, they often struggle to identify and realise their full potential and business value.
QOREX is a unique approach to identifying and releasing that value.

Eventuosity for Exhibit Houses, I&D Vendors, and Service ProvidersJustin Panzer
Exhibit Houses, I&D vendors, General and Sub-Contractors, and other service providers are critical to the success of tradeshows and exhibitions. And while show organizers and exhibitors rely heavily on them to create impactful events, the ability to connect and collaborate is often limited.
In the following few slides we’ll look at how eventuosity® can be utilized as a value-added offering by service providers to improve the events workflow for themselves, their clients and the third parties with whom they must both interact.
PMO Business Case - QOREX simplified business case - PMO management and repor...Phil Trickey
Running a PMO (Programme and Project Management Office) typically includes a significant amount of administration. Skilled PMO staff often spend up to 50% of their time carrying out relatively unskilled report production. The vast majority of time, effort and materials invested in report production can be eliminated when using QOREX to manage the Programmes and Projects within the organisation.
I. Project management is all about calculating the pitfalls and creating outlets to avoid the consequences.
II. All the projects share a common aim – following ideas and activities to shape them into working realities.
III. Even if the project is well planned and carried still the possibility of encountering dangers exists.

Proven Paradigm for Creating Enterprise Project and Portfolio Management Adop...UMT
Capability Maturity Assessment is one of the tools consistently leveraged by Enterprise Project and Portfolio Manage-ment (EPM) practitioners in the creation of adoption roadmaps for organizations that are creating momentum for change with the objective of improving internal governance. Historically, the problem has been addressed in parallel at the Project, Program, or Portfolio levels, and in many cases the solutions devised have been independent of one anoth-er, potentially missing on integration aspects that could greatly improve overall results. In the past couple of years, new methodologies that attempt to encompass all three disciplines have been developed, including OPM3 from the PMI.
Business Improvement initiatives are getting a lot of press these days: “..our projects saved over $10M in the first 12 months of deployment using BPM” . It seems logical for an organization to jump onto the process improvement bandwagon. Much is promised of business improvement efforts, and there are many capable consultants and companies willing to support a company’s BPM deployment that can last months to years. But how does an organization know that the business improvement efforts will really result in a quantifiable benefit to the business? Process improvement initiatives are not inexpensive to start or sustain over many years, and most executives require the clear identification of benefits to justify the expenditure of training resources and driving project work before approving a long-term initiative.

Tricks of the Transformation Trade: Disruptive Disintermediation, Agility Age...UMT
A vast majority of U.S multinational firms – 93% in fact, according to a recent survey – are at some stage
of undergoing or preparing for business transformation initiatives. This is being driven by an unprecedented
confluence of changes in customer behavior, disruptive technology and domestic competition, among other
key triggers. It’s constantly “transform or wither” in today’s volatile global business, and
agility is the executive imperative of the day, albeit an elusive one. An organization’s long term success or failure
depends on its capacity to consistently identify opportunities and risks and renew itself faster than rivals do.
Business leaders need to be more efficient and effective at updating and implementing strategies than ever
before. If wielded correctly, an important weapon in their agility war chest is a new style of enterprise program
management office (PMO) that is more comprehensive than in the past.
Portfolio Agility– From Elusive Imperative to Practical Reality: Seven Dimens...UMT
More efficient and effective setting and implementing of strategy can be potentially achieved by leveraging a new style of PMO that is more comprehensive than in the past.
Agility is the elusive executive imperative of the day; long term success or failure depends on an organization’s skill at identifying and capturing opportunities faster than rivals do in this volatile and global business environment.
Bridging the gap between strategy and execution and facilitating better decisions and their deployment requires a non-ad-hoc, comprehensive roadmap to laying an enterprise-wide web of information sharing and structural change that is adopted at all levels of the company.

"This is the first part of the IT financial management series. In this webinar, Charlie Curcio, IT CFO shares his experience in defining what it means to Run the Business of IT.
On average companies spend 5% of the total operating budget on IT, increasing pressure on executives to reduce costs, communicate value and align IT investments with business priorities to drive a competitive advantage.
Today, many high performing IT organizations are adopting Integrated IT Portfolio Analysis (IIPA) best practices to effectively Run the Business of IT. Developing a holistic data model and financial framework is key to driving transparency across disparate IT domains and providing accurate and reliable metrics to enhance decision making."
Microsoft recently announced the release of Microsoft Project 2013, the latest Project and Portfolio Management solution from Microsoft. This webinar covers the four stages of the UMT Project Portfolio Management Governance Lifecycle: Create, Select, Plan, and Manage.
The quest to define IT’s relationship with the business has gained new momentum over the last few years, primarily due to a more difficult economic climate driving the need for transparency in spending decisions. The momentum is manifested in a fundamental awareness, developed since the technology hype of the late 90’s, that IT organizations must be integrated more closely with the businesses they support. Management teams in many organizations are focused on defining a better Business-Technology partnership, which is shining the spotlight on a new discipline -- Project Portfolio Management (PPM).
The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Portfolio Management ImplementationsUMT
Originally published in 2003, this white paper on portfolio management has stood the test of time and is still relevant in all 7 best practice areas. Although the 7 best practices remain the same, the field of portfolio management has evolved substantially. To follow are some key questions that have been answered in the last few years:
Where should I start: Process or Tools?
For IT portfolios, what is more important: APM or PPM?
Which is the right level to start: Project or Portfolio?
Has portfolio management become more widely accepted as a practice in the last three years?
Are there financial benefits to implementing portfolio management?
Optimizing Organizational Performance by Managing Project BenefitsUMT
Too many organizations today still measure the success of a project based only on the traditional project management standards of delivering On Time, On Budget and On Scope. While these criteria are valid measures of successful project management, they are less suitable when assessing a project’s true success: its contribution to the overall organization's performance. Indeed, the ulti-mate success of a project – whether cost savings, revenue increases or customer satisfaction improvements – may not be known until years after it has been successfully delivered.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.
Major Financial Institution Rationlizes Project Budgeting Process
1. Challenge
The executive management at a major financial institution was faced with making project planning decisions across
departments that did not share a clear, organization-wide set of objectives. The manual, time-consuming process for
planning lacked a standard methodology to allow planners to align initiatives with objectives, create an understanding
of cross-initiative impacts and dependencies, and ensure visibility and reporting. Collectively, the five-month annual
planning process was overwhelming the ability to make optimal initiative investments based on organizational objec-
tives and current information about each initiative.
External market forces, including increased regulatory pressure from the government, dictated that this method of
planning initiatives could not be sustained.
Solution
UMT consultants assisted the company in defining a corpo-
rate standard, process and configuration of Microsoft Office
Project Portfolio Server (formerly known as “UMT Portfolio
Manager”), for initiative planning & reporting. Through facili-
tated workshops and iterative configuration prototyping, UMT
designed and gained consensus on process and Microsoft
Portfolio Server configuration that was both robust and flexi-
ble to meet the company’s specific but varied initiative plan-
ning needs.

2. With a proposed solution in place, UMT consultants conducted
numerous customized presentations on PPM processes and the
Microsoft Portfolio Server configuration to ensure buy-in and
ease adoption, in addition to Instructor-led customized training
both on the process and tool. With feedback from all of the
company’s divisions and extensive walkthroughs with the com-
pany’s corporate planning team, the PPM team at the company was confident of a successful deployment.
Results
A pilot included fifty users within the finance organization using the solution to actively track and generate monthly
initiative reports. Integration with the transactional cost tracking system, removed the manual aggregation, data en-
try, and reconciliation that used to be required for initiative costs reporting, also eliminating the occurrence of manu-
al errors. Furthermore, the standardized status report with defined and automated status indicators ensured that
management had a consistent view across initiatives.
Subsequent to the success of the PPM pilot, the company is in the process of an organization-wide rollout of the Mi-
crosoft Portfolio Server and process to over 300 users across the organization.
