Project Management Consulting

What I Bring to Your Project

• • Planning & Scoping. Translating goals into a clear scope, milestone plan, budget, and success criteria everyone can align to.
• • Execution & Delivery. Running the day-to-day cadence — status, standups, decisions, and follow-through — so the project keeps moving.
• • Stakeholder Management. Keeping leadership, internal teams, and external partners informed, aligned, and accountable.
• • Risk & Issue Management. Spotting problems early, surfacing trade-offs, and course-correcting before small issues become expensive ones.
• • Vendor & Implementation Oversight. Coordinating third-party vendors and internal teams so the plan on paper actually gets implemented in practice.
• • Process & Operations Improvement. Documenting workflows, closing gaps, and leaving your team with repeatable processes long after the engagement ends.

Types of Projects I Lead

• • New program or product launches
• • Benefits, HR, and operational implementations
• • Vendor selection, transitions, and rollouts
• • Cross-functional initiatives that have stalled and need to be restarted
• • Process redesign and organizational change projects
• • Interim / fractional project leadership during transitions

Who I Work With

Employers, HR and operations leaders, nonprofits, associations, and professional service firms who need experienced, hands-on project leadership on a contract basis. Engagements are scoped to your needs — from a single project to multi-month, multi-workstream initiatives.

How I Help

A PMP-aligned lifecycle applied to every engagement — from first conversation through final handoff.

1. 1. Initiate — Discovery

   Clarify the business need, define objectives and success criteria, identify key stakeholders, and confirm the project is worth doing. Deliverable: a lightweight project charter and stakeholder map.

2. 2. Plan — Scope, Schedule & Risk

   Build the roadmap: scope, work breakdown, schedule, budget, resource plan, communication cadence, and an initial risk register. Everyone leaves this phase knowing what "done" looks like and how we'll get there.

3. 3. Execute — Deliver the Work

   Run the day-to-day: coordinate teams and vendors, remove blockers, manage change requests, and keep the plan and the reality aligned. Decisions are documented, owners are clear, deadlines are protected.

4. 4. Monitor & Control — Track & Adjust

   Regular status reporting against scope, schedule, budget, and risk. Issues are surfaced early with options and trade-offs, so leadership can steer with confidence instead of react in crisis.

5. 5. Close — Handoff & Lessons Learned

   Confirm deliverables meet acceptance criteria, transition ownership back to your team with clean documentation, and capture lessons learned so the next project starts stronger than this one.

How Engagements Work

1. 1. Discovery Call. A 30-minute conversation to understand your goals, timeline, and constraints.
2. 2. Scope & Proposal. A written scope of work with clear deliverables, milestones, and pricing.
3. 3. Kickoff & Execution. Structured project cadence with regular status updates and stakeholder check-ins.
4. 4. Handoff. Final documentation, lessons learned, and a clean transition back to your team.
