HBSC recognizes that today's Fortune 1000 companies have a heterogeneous collection of best-of-breed applications, custom solutions, legacy applications and non-standard business processes. Moreover, projects and daily operations frequently involve external vendors, global business partners and a diverse set of customer requirements that require both integration and standardization. In order to manage this complexity, it is necessary for organizations to have the appropriate level of governance, project and program management and delivery capabilities.

Enterprise Program Office Methodology

HBSC helps organizations optimize their project portfolio and ensure that it is in alignment with the enterprise business strategy. We help companies put the organizational structures, business processes and systems in place to effectively manage large scale changes. By establishing an Enterprise Program Management Office, our clients are able to leverage HBSC’s standardized best practice methodology that reduces the risk of delivering highly complex interdependent projects. Our project delivery methodology (MAPS) has combined best practice from the IBM Rational Unified Process (RUP), the Project Management Institute Body of Knowledge (PMBOK), ITIL and CobiT to facilitate, conceptualize and assure outstanding results.
