Program Repair
Your program may be broken… but it can be fixed.
When your program or project runs into trouble, we step in fast — minimising damage and recovering momentum. As rapidly as required. Many programs fail.

Risk Resolution
We can help protect your program, and organisation from danger.
Programs may progress through their lifecycle successfully. They may finish and be deemed a success, but what we have seen many times across government and private sector programs is that risk is nearly always mismanaged.
A failure to adequately identify risks, to assess them, mitigate them, and have plans and triggers established to respond to them, may be fatal. In some situations risk events have been existential threats to the organisation. Risk management is at the core of all programs. Looking at historical and industry programs and projects can provide key signals. Our team has decades of experience in high value and high importance programs and we are uniquely equipped to protect your program and organisation before risks become incidents.
Risk Review of Current Identified Risks
Understand the business case, goals, and required outcomes vs risk.Risk Gap Analysis
Review existing identified risks - assess for missing and “underrated” risk.Document and Classify all Existing Risks
Ensure fully documented identified risks and their initial assessment measures.Mitigation and Risk Response plans
Ensure adequately qualified personnel are able to review the identified risks, clarify if mitigation is possible, and to what scale. Prepare risk response plans, processes and procedures.Red Team 1
As required, setup a team to “break” the plans. Find new risks, backdoors, “black swan” scenarios and storyboard.Governance Review
Review the full risk management plan with key stakeholders and sponsors to ensure they are aware of all identified risks, mitigations, and response:- Which risks can be mitigated, at what cost and time.
- Which risks can be accepted and what that could mean.
- What responses are proposed in the event of a risk trigger - cost and effects expected. Definition of levels of response (DEFCON 1 - 5), for example.
-How staff and 3rd parties can be managed and engaged to identify new risks, issues, executing mitigation activities, and practicing responses to risk trigger events.
Red Team 2
As required, setup a team to “break” the plans again in a real-world scenario. Trigger false-flag events, test response times, processes and procedures.Progress Tracking & Learning
Track and measure rigorously. Learn from mistakes.Manage Active Risk
As required, actively manage risk for the program administratively or with a 24/7 support team setup to monitor for new risk, mitigage identified risk, and respond to pre-defined triggers and new unplanned risk issue events.Complete & Sweep
Gain full acceptance through final sweep of the program.Proper Closure
Ensure all risk management activities are completed, documented and reviewed, as required by the organisation.
Risk is something that amateurs leave to chance. Experts with experience, who have seen the (eye-watering) horror of what poor risk management can produce, will leave nothing to chance. Risk is at the core of all good program and project management.

Operations Enhancement
We audit and optimise your BAU (Business As Usual) Operations environment.

We identify them. We eliminate them. We leave your operations leaner, more resilient, and fully compliant. Many organisations treat BAU as "set and forget".
We treat it as a continuous opportunity for optimisation — without disruption.
