Secure quality in a change project within a managed service organization by Rob van der Made.

Within Ericsson mobile and fixed operator networks are managed. Managing multi-vendor and multi-technology networks. This is called a managed service. Over 50 percent of the equipment is non-Ericsson. Today Ericsson is taking care for the continuity of 370 Million subscribers, say mobile and fixed phone connections, in more the 100 countries. Recently the location Rijen made a huge relocation of these activities towards Romania. During this relocation the number 1 goal was: “No end users impact allowed”.

The development of Project Support by Marko van Keulen.

Marko is manager at WIN Project Assistants and responsible for business development in the area of Project Support.

Project Support is of all times. The maturity and professionalism of this service however has increased tremendously in the last few years. What is happening now and what can be expected by PM in the future from this important fast developing role? Mature projects can’t do without Project Support.

Simplicity seems so simple by Ruud Peltzer.

Ruud is a board member of the PRINCE User Group NL and responsible for the support of project organizations through the Principal Toolbox software. His graduation program – a PRINCE2 implementation according to the book – triggered him to get more grip on the project organization. The lessons learned from the past are part of a recent study: simplicity, commitment and step-by-step growth. Simplicity includes the supporting tools: the easier we start the greater the chance for success within the project organization. Experts can be the heroes of a professionalized project organization; however, avoid them to put the bar too high. Achieving a mature project organization (including individual employees) takes time and the necessary success. Do you have this time? And how do you ensure success?
