I just finished reading my copy of 2014 Pulse of the Profession® by the Project Management Institute (PMI).   This year’s edition is subtitled “The High Cost of Low Performance.” Mulling over the content, it struck us that as a company whose offering is based on driving organization change through project delivery, we should take a fresh look at how we interact with our customers.  Further, as we looked at the offering, could the various delivery models improve our customers’ performance and therefore reduce cost and improve profitability?

The table below reflects the results of our assessment.  We focused on four delivery approaches based on our clients’ requirements to deliver change in the short term and on the need to improve project performance strategically for the long haul.
