11. Do you use particular project management software?
IPMS does not endorse specific project management software packages, but uses tools that fit the size and culture
of our clients' organizations. We've used software such as Microsoft Project, Microsoft Office Suite and enterprise
project management systems. We have found that it is best not to "force fit" activities into a certain format or
template, but choose the appropriate tool for each individual circumstance.
12. What makes IPMS unique?
Execution
In addition to strategy formulation and detailed planning, IPMS's staff work alongside clients throughout the course
of the project, to ensure successful plan execution and to facilitate effective decision-making, should unexpected
challenges arise mid-stream. Many consultants provide advice and develop plans, but few conduct onsite follow-through.
Experience and qualifications
IPMS project managers bring years of experience across a range of operating environments. The majority of IPMS's staff
have received professional certification through the Project Management Institute and some are Six Sigma certified.
IPMS averages more hours of continued training per year per employee.
IPMS approach
IPMS is committed to our core competency - project management. We apply best practices honed over thousands of projects
across a variety of client environments and are proud to have earned 90% repeat business.
