Virtual Project Management · AU & NZ
Plug in a PM. Ship the project.
Fractional, independent project management for technology initiatives. Cloud migrations, platform rollouts, integrations, ERP/CRM, infrastructure programmes. You bring the projects. We bring the delivery discipline.
The problem
Tech projects stall because nobody owns them end-to-end. Internal staff get pulled back to BAU. Vendors run the show. Timelines drift. Budgets blow.
Hiring a full-time PM for a single project is overkill. Leaving it to “whoever has time” is worse. vPM is senior project delivery on tap. One project, a programme, or ongoing PM capacity across your portfolio for as long as you’ve got work in flight.
What we deliver.
Six pillars. The work that keeps a project on the rails. Done properly, not delegated to a spreadsheet.
Project initiation & governance
Scope, charter, RAID log, steering cadence, stakeholder map. The skeleton the project hangs off, set up properly on day one.
Vendor & delivery management
Implementation partners and internal teams held to the plan. Status calls that surface the truth, not the polish.
Risk, issue & dependency management
The stuff that quietly kills projects, tracked and worked. No buried red items. No surprises at steerco.
Status & executive reporting
Clear, honest, one-page reporting the board can actually read. Green when it’s green. Red when it isn’t.
Budget & commercial tracking
Variations, change requests, burn rate, contract obligations. We watch the money as hard as the plan.
Go-live, transition & handover
The last 10% most projects fumble. We see it through to operations, not just to launch day.
Projects we run.
Different shapes, same delivery discipline. If it’s a technology project that needs to land, we’ve probably run one like it.
- Cloud migrations (M365, Azure, AWS, GCP)
- ERP & CRM (Salesforce, HubSpot, D365, NetSuite)
- Data platform & analytics rollouts
- Network, voice & infrastructure refreshes
- Cybersecurity programmes (SIEM, EDR, IAM)
- Software integrations & middleware
- MSP / vendor transitions
- M&A technology integration
How we work
Four steps.
One project landed.
The same delivery rhythm refined across cloud, ERP, infrastructure and cyber programmes. Boring on purpose.
- 01
Understand the project
What it really is, not what the brief says. We pressure-test the goal, the scope and the assumptions before anything else.
- 02
Stand up governance
Plan, RAID, reporting cadence, roles, decisions log. Boring on paper, the difference between landing and drifting.
- 03
Run the delivery
Weekly drumbeat, vendors managed, risks worked, status honest. We do the chasing so your team can do the work.
- 04
Land it and hand it over
Go-live, transition, lessons learned, proper handover. The project closes properly, not just quietly. The relationship continues into the next one.
Engagement models
Mostly ongoing.
Sometimes single shot.
Most clients keep us on as ongoing PM capacity across their portfolio. Sometimes it starts as one project. Either way, no fixed packages, no tier cards.
PM-on-retainer
Ongoing fractional PM capacity across your portfolio, drawn down as projects arise. The default. No hiring, no benching, no gap between projects.
Programme delivery
Multiple linked projects under one governance umbrella. One PM, consistent reporting, joined-up risk. Continues as the programme evolves.
Single project
Fixed-term engagement for one defined project, end-to-end. Plug in, deliver, hand over. Often turns into the first of many.
Why independent
Independent. Full stop.
- ·Not aligned to any implementation partner or vendor. We work for the project, not the project’s suppliers.
- ·No incentive to extend scope or hide bad news. Status reports say what they need to say.
- ·Commercially aware. We manage the contract as hard as we manage the plan.
