Eye-Openers Consulting
Fresh Perspectives, Real Results
Facing a challenging problem or seeking an outside perspective? Let’s talk. By asking insightful questions, we’ll explore the issues, their importance, what you’ve tried, and the resources at your disposal.
We’ll discuss the outcomes you want to achieve, the impact you desire, and why change is necessary. Then, we’ll assess how we can assist you.
Project Management
Typically, consultants work on specific projects with well-defined endpoints and success criteria. The principal methodologies applied are Waterfall, Agile or Hybrid, depending a.o. on
- How fast or how well known the requirements are known at the start of the project
- Whether we can implement a Minimum Viable Product or Service and already start to capture value, or whether we need one full-sweep change as possibly many departments are involved.
Functional Areas
This section of the site showcases our expertise in various technical domains, providing insight into the challenges we can tackle for you. We can help you with larger systems implementations, with challenges in the logistics area, with marketing and sales and HR.
Themes recurrent in various areas are the Analysis of data and definition of KPIs. And the importance of the use of creativity and visioning to really propel your thinking is an area where we can help.
Change Management
Project acceptance criteria, which mark the end of a project, don’t always align with the desired outcomes. Often, outcomes become evident once users fully adapt to a new way of working, and the synergy between people, systems, and procedures begins to flow seamlessly. For example, consider an ERP system implementation. While going live is a significant milestone, the true purpose lies in achieving benefits like real-time accounting and improved cost data.
Two key considerations:
- Measurable Outcomes: Even if certain outcomes are realistically achievable after the Go-Live date, it’s essential to make them measurable. Quantifying progress ensures alignment with project goals.
- Change Adoption: Successful outcomes depend on people embracing the required changes. If people not fully adopt the change, the envisaged outcomes will not be realized, and in fact the change project failed even if the (technical) project´s acceptance criteria were achieved. To prevent this from happening we strongly suggest always to add a change management component in your projects.
