Crisis Recovery Services

When a critical program is slipping—scope is unstable, governance is failing, and vendors are misaligned—we stabilize and recover delivery with a 5-step framework.

What is crisis recovery?

  • A rapid, structured intervention to stabilize a troubled program and restore predictable delivery.
  • A governance reset that clarifies scope, ownership, risks, and decision cadence.
  • A delivery acceleration plan that reduces rework and increases stakeholder confidence.
  • A benefits and compliance alignment layer so outcomes are measurable and audit-ready.

Typical troubled projects we rescue

  • SCADA modernization (upgrade/migration, remote access, historian integration)
  • Asset management rollouts (CMMS/EAM) with complex data quality constraints
  • Customer/citizen service portals (accessibility mandates + security obligations)
  • Regulatory reporting transformations with evidence gaps
  • Multi-vendor integrations with unclear accountability and weak testing discipline

Methodology

Our 5-step recovery framework

A repeatable approach that combines governance, engineering discipline, and executive reporting.

1

Stabilize

Rebuild cadence: weekly executive brief, PMO artifacts, RAID log discipline, KPI definitions.

2

Diagnose

Perform delivery forensics across scope, vendor contracts, requirements, test coverage, and risks.

3

Reset governance

Rebuild cadence: weekly executive brief, PMO artifacts, RAID log discipline, KPI definitions.

4

Recover delivery

Replan for achievable milestones; enforce quality gates; remove blockers; re-align vendors.

5
