HOW WE WORK

For Organisations
We provide our services in one of two ways:

REMOTELY. We can provide packages of software along with procedural information, for their initial installation and future operation and support, for you to deploy in your own time.
These framework packages can be set to work individually or as a comprehensive Programme Office package where all frameworks are included. All packages are compliant with current good practices and methods such as Prince2.
Ongoing support is provided by special arrangement.
For further information regarding the Framework Packages available for download please go to our Products Page. Free trial packages are also available.

IN HOUSE. We can work with you as part of your project team to install the frameworks you require up to and including the full Programme Office Set Up package.
All packages are compliant with current good practices and methods such as Prince2.

We have no corporate lawyers or expensive contract negotiators acting on our behalf. Instead a contract rate and duration is agreed at, or prior to, interview stage when the Portfolio Consultant attends the your office and discusses your requirements with your representative.

Following agreement of contract rate and duration, the Abbermist Portfolio Consultant works within your organisation's office. At this time the Abbermist Programme Office Package is made available to the you. The extent to which this is used is at your discretion.

Minor portfolio amendment such as incorporation of client logo in documents is completed free of charge. Extensive portfolio amendment costs are accommodated by adjustment of contract duration.

These packages use common everyday IT tools such as Spreadsheets, Word Processors, Presentation Packages and Windows Explorer. For the not so common planning applications we provide tools to enable the inexperienced to become quickly effective in the use of Microsoft Project including the area of Deliverable Management.

Training will be conducted 'on-job' by the Portfolio Consultant. Training presentations, practical demonstrations and exercises are available, the tools for which are to be found within the Product Packages. These will be presented or conducted by the Portfolio Consultant at the request of the Client.
