QUALITY ASSURANCE OF PROJECTS.
Here we explain how to achieve resilient projects by:

• Apply effective risk management methods and processes
• Using one of the world’s (probably) best methods that combines risk management and estimation in one process

The methods can be used in all project types, e.g. building and construction, HW/SW development, IT, outsourcing, product development, tenders, business cases, etc.

Below you can download appetizers for the materials we use for training and webinars.

We also develop customized courses and materials.

Introduction to quality assurance with the Successive Principle.
Here you can download handouts for the slides we use in the training/webinar (customizations may occur).

The Successive Principle is a project management methodology that results in Robust Plans and Budgets through early quality assurance of the project, program or portfolio.

The method has been successful in thousands of projects in Scandinavia and Europe.

Here you can download an excel spreadsheet that shows the principles and calculations.

References companies
Here you can see references to some companies where 1000’s of projects have used the Successive Principle and created Robust Budgets & Plans.

Estimation of Building & Construction Projects
Here you can download handouts for the slides we use in the training/webinar (customizations may apply).

Here you can read about e.g. ‘New definition of UFs’ (Unforeseen), Contingency reserves, Consultant’s budgeting, Estimation of UFs (Incl. Unknown Unknowns), Multiple critical paths in the project plan, etc.

Robust schedules
Here you can download handouts for the slides we use in the training/webinar (customizations may apply).

Here you can read about:

• How to get from the activities to a duration plan
• How to move forward to a robust schedule

Estimation of Unknown Unknowns
Here you can download handouts for the slides we use in the training/webinar (customizations may apply).

In construction projects, for example, we talk about UFers:

• The unforeseen costs, Unknown Knowns (What you forgot to include)
• The unforeseeable costs, Unknown Unknowns (What you don’t know you don’t know)

In the webinar, you’ll learn how to estimate these types of costs.

Benefits:

• Greater robustness in budgets and plans
• Nature awareness Unk Unks in projects
• Reduction of Unk Unks because you consciously search for them

Estimating IT Projects
Here you can download handouts for the slides we use in the training/webinar (customizations may apply). First, we provide an introduction to the Successive Principle, which is the basis for ensuring robust budgets and plans.

For IT projects, it can be crucial that the project gets off to a good start.

We do this by, for example:

• To quality assure the foundation
• Identifying the Top 10 uncertainties
• Creating a robust budget and plan
• Combining the Successive method with agile methods

In the webinar, you can learn how to estimate IT projects.

Flipover slides
Here you can download flipover slides that we often use in training/webinars (customizations may apply).

The handbook:
“Proactive Management of Uncertainties using the Successive Principle”. Translation of the English edition by Henrik K. Søndergaard.

We sell the handbook in hardcopy (physical) format.

It is also available in PDF format from Molio.dk

FACILITATOR TRAINING
We train employees to become facilitators specializing in conducting Successive Workshops with different types of analysis.

Training includes e.g:

• Introduction to the underlying theory
• Training on the pitfalls to avoid
• Training via own projects or cases

Requirements for the participant are e.g:

• The person is used to facilitating workgroups
• That the person is curious about their own way of acting in a group process
• That the person works with positive feedback
• That the person is open-minded and curious about how a process is carried out

The training can be conducted in Danish, English or ‘Scandinavian’.

Benefits:

• Ensure your business has clear budgets and plans – that stick
• The company increases its project efficiency and competitiveness
• That the company at least stabilizes or better increases its EBIT
• The company can more easily recruit qualified employees
• The company experiences less stress in projects and among employees
