Project Health Check & Recovery when it’s slipping.

A fast, independent diagnosis of what is really happening on a troubled project – and a practical path back to delivery that sponsors and the team can both stand behind.

Signs your project needs a health check

Milestones keep moving

Dates slip, and the explanation is different every time.

Amber on paper, red in the room

Status reports look manageable, but the team tells a different story.

The same risks, every week

Risks are logged and reported – but never owned or resolved.

Confidence is draining

Sponsors are losing patience, and vendors and teams are starting to protect themselves.

What’s included

Every engagement is scoped to the work – this is the typical shape, not a fixed package.

  • Rapid root-cause diagnosis – not just symptoms
  • An independent view of schedule, budget and scope
  • Stakeholder and vendor conversations
  • Clear options: continue, re-scope or pause
  • A re-baselined plan the team can deliver
  • A governance reset so decisions happen on time

Diagnose. Decide. Deliver.

The same discipline, applied in the same order – so nothing important is decided by accident.

Common questions

Recovery work is usually urgent. The Clarity Call focuses on what can start immediately and which information is needed first, so diagnosis begins without delay.

The diagnosis is designed to be light on the team – short conversations and existing documents, not new reporting. The goal is to take pressure off, not add to it.

Then that is the recommendation. Sometimes pausing or re-scoping is the decision that protects the most value – and sponsors deserve to hear it clearly and early.
