emergn Launches Program Consulting Solution to Reinvigorate Stalled IT Projects by Applying Agile Methodologies

emergn Helps Global Multi-Billion Dollar Financial Services Firm Launch Research Application, Improve Quality 500%

NEW YORK & LONDON--()--emergn, a global services consultancy, today launched a service designed to focus on the successful delivery of IT projects. The service is designed to reinvigorate stalled IT projects to ensure investments have the best chance of success. The new service is specifically designed to deliver effective delivery approaches, by leveraging agile and lean methodologies, to generate near-term results.

The service leverages the Company’s global network of specialized teams as well as its proprietary value, flow, quality ® operational model to make a substantial impact on the delivery of IT projects, rather than focusing on the up-skilling of staff requiring widespread organizational transformation. The new solution works around cumbersome IT development methodologies that often result in slow, costly delivery and a lack of true alignment with core objectives and strategies. The offering applies agile methodologies and an emphasis on leadership and hands-on engagement into a project team to drive program delivery to a successful outcome quickly, cost effectively and, most importantly, aligned with the customer’s priorities.

emergn recently helped a global, multi-billion dollar financial services company that was struggling to develop and launch a new application. At the onset, the project scope was ambiguous, and was plagued with critical defects, and missed deliveries. emergn’s services enabled project teams to deliver on time, under budget and improve on the overall relationship and customer experience by working more collaboratively with the end client, while delivering incremental progress and building confidence. As a result, the overall quality of the application improved by more than 500%, and the team could focus on continually delivering the value-adding features to make it stronger and more customized to specific needs and challenges.

“IT departments today are challenged with delivering tangible, rapid results in key programs and projects, because of the requirement to adhere to cumbersome methodologies,” said Philip Black, Chief Operating Officer, emergn. “Companies aren’t always able to do a wholesale transformation of their departments to make a single project successful. We believe that critical, complex projects and programs can benefit from the application of more agile and lean methods to increase the chance of successful delivery, and realize near-term incremental benefits, even before the project in complete. Our unique and innovative Value, Flow, Quality model has helped program managers and directors get more from their delivery teams.”
