Project assessment

Purpose

Projects cost organisations a lot of time, money, and effort. If everything goes well, the organisation takes an important step forward, but the consequences if things do not go well are usually big. Are you (partly) responsible for the success of an important project? Do you have questions like: Can we do this ourselves? Do we depend too much on the supplier? Do we have the risks under control? Can our project be done cheaper? Can we increase the predictability of our planning? And will the expected benefits be realised? In these cases an external pair of eyes or a cross-thinker are no luxury.

This is our project assessment

A project assessment by NRP is an independent assessment of your project that provides you with information on the status of the project or programme. We help you avoid common pitfalls and make pragmatic recommendations to move the project forward. We make visible what is going well, what is going not so well, and what you can do about it.

This is how it works

In an assessment, it is important to know why projects often fail to deliver the desired results, to recognise the symptoms behind these failures in time and to tackle the root causes. By interviewing those involved and studying all relevant documentation, we create a picture of your project and organisation. We act as a critical friend. We do this not only based on our knowledge and experience, but also on the latest scientific insights. Our project assessment and advice is discussed with the most important project stakeholders, in order to gain support and develop understanding. This gives you insight into the status of the project and a list of follow-up actions to successfully complete the project with confidence.

As a result of this assessment

  • You will know where your project stands and how much time it will take to finish.
  • You have insight into the most important project risks and how you can limit these.
  • We have shared our observations, experiences and possible project interventions with you.
  • We will ensure that safeguards are in place to improve the quality of the most important project processes and project deliverables.
  • You will have increased confidence in the success of your project and the capability to realise a faster and cheaper project delivery.

What our clients tell us

“The ERP implementation turned out to be more complex than anticipated. This was reason enough to halt the implementation and reconsider the basic principles and approach. The halt led to a depreciation of €18 million, part of the amount invested up to that point. After the assessment, we adjusted the governance and continued with fewer people. These interventions got the project back on track.”
