Project Value Delivery philosophy
• “We empower organizations to be reliably
successful in executing large, complex
projects”:
– Our objective is a sustainable transformation for
repeatable success – we give out knowledge
– We focus on large, complex projects
(typically>100M$ and global)
– We don’t just advise, we do the work

Project Value Delivery Approach:
a Cost-Effective Solution
• Focused interventions only by senior professionals
recognized for their expertise and track record
– Very high effectiveness and laser-focus on business needs
– We do not replace resources - we leverage on internal
resources (involvement, training and coaching) to ensure
sustainability
– Not a typical “Big Consulting Firm” invading with large
teams and juniors
• We work on retainer basis – availability + pay-as-
you-use – never full time
– We remain available for discussions, emails, document
reviews…
– You pay only for the time we spent face-to-face

Project Value Delivery
A Specific Business Model
• Our business model is:
– Mostly part-time work on a medium-term basis so as
to see through the transformation and be effective
(typically 25-50% time often more than 1 year)
– Specific more intense shorter term interventions for
project startup support, project review etc.
– Training and coaching interventions
• Our business model is not:
– Taking operational positions (which require full-time
even temporary): no interim management
– Taking over management’s responsibilities
– Providing a full team of consultants

w w w . P r o j e c t V a l u e D e l i v e r y . c o m 7
Integrity is essential to us
• We are aware that our interventions expose us to confidential
information
– We make sure we keep our clients’ information confidential
– We declare any possible conflict of interest in our proposals
and whenever they would arise
– We minimize our involvement in pre-award stages and we
focus on project execution post-award
– We do not have any commercial relationship with any
software provider so as to maintain our advisory
independence

Project Start-up Support (1/2)
• We believe that proper project setup is key to
project success
• PVD has developed a proprietary start-up process –
effective and comprehensive, to respond to time
constraints
• This process tackles both processes, systems, and
project team formation
– Use of effective workshops to shape project and
build project team
– Logical flow from the definition of project
objectives to the review of the execution plan,
definition of the baseline etc.
