Our new module based training teaches metrics based governance techniques that helps you make project decisions that are based on facts rather than opinions and therefore easily communicated, verifiable and auditable. Modules are independent and therefore can be completed individually or in any order; each teaches a specific set of skills.

These leading edge techniques to enable you to confidently objectively answer questions such as: 

  • How big is your project and how can you have confidence that the project cost estimates are reasonable? – See Module 1 – Project Estimation & Module 2 – Project Sizing
  • How cost effective is your development process and would it have been cheaper to outsource? – See Module 3 – Governance & Benchmarking
  • How can you know the developers are providing value for money? – See Module 1 – Project Estimation & Module 3 – Governance & Benchmarking
  • Is the change you requested really worth what you were charged? – See Module 1 – Project Estimation & Module 2 – Project Sizing
  • AND more importantly should the project have ever been started? – See Module 4 – Investment Management Standard

Metrics  for Process Improvement  In any IT Strategy, it is imperative that organisations manage and  control their software applications environment by monitoring its  performance. Software metrics are the resulting values obtained by the  software measurement process, which indicate the performance  efficiency, cost effectiveness and quality of your software products  and processes. As the backbone of IT, the correct assessment of your  software applications can have a dramatic effect on the benefits IT can  bring to your organisation in driving continuous improvement.
