Program Management

Overview

The Geneva Software project management approach considers a holistic view of the processes, disciplines, and leadership required to achieve project success.

Process

Our certified project managers implement processes that encourage collaboration, engage stakeholders, and ensure initiatives are completed within planned budget, scope, quality and schedule. Their experience includes adaptive agile models such as Scrum, Kanban, and Scalable Agile Framework (SAFe), as well as traditional predictive SDLC models such as waterfall. Our Program Managers are skilled in assessing the appropriateness and organizational fit of these models, advising our customers on the approach that would yield the highest quality and return on investment for their particular situation. We have the skill and experience to consult on effective hybrid strategies when needed. To help achieve effective communication, we provide project documentation throughout the lifecycle, such as schedules, risk registers, and other reporting as required.

Discipline

To demonstrate excellence in project management disciplines, we ensure that our project managers achieve certification as a Project Management Professional (PMP), ScrumMaster and/or Scrum Product Owner. It is the goal of Geneva Software LLC that 100% of our Project Managers maintain the PMP credential and 100% of managers on Scrum-based teams have achieved one or more Scrum certifications. To ensure the disciplines are applied appropriately and effectively, Geneva Software maintains a rigorous compliance program for all projects. The result of our compliance program is that our project teams benefit from continuous improvement, which leads to more predictable quality outcomes for our customers. As evidence of our strength in adhering to solid repeatable processes and executing continuous improvement practices leading to high quality outcomes, Geneva Software maintains a CMMI-DEV 3 appraisal rating and an ISO 9001:2015 certification.

Leadership

Our project managers maintain an emphasis on people balanced with the tactical management of tasks. Experience has shown us that clear communication is at the heart of effective project leadership. Geneva Software’s leadership implements flexible communication systems aided by a technology stack that enables clear and continuous communication with all team members.

Our corporate Project Management Office works with the project managers to create and implement proven hiring strategies to build teams of highly qualified professionals that fulfill the needs of the customer.

Additionally, our project managers are well-equipped to manage teams across all levels of the enterprise and adapt to the customer’s organizational structure. This enables our teams to harmoniously integrate into the customer’s environment. Throughout our history, our project leadership has been recognized for maintaining reliable and trustworthy relationships, and delivering with quality.
