1670 – Print Implementation 2
SUMS had played an on-going role helping to define requirements and project manage the implementation, while supporting a handover to an in-house project manager. As the project manager took more responsibility our role moved to clarifying requirements and monitoring benefits realisation. The project has now had a successful pilot and roll-out is continuing.
1727 – Virtual Project Office Review
The assignment reviewed the project management services and structures at Oxford Brookes to assess the effectiveness of project delivery across the institution. We compared the model in place with other HE institutions, to make recommendations around the approach, methods, governance and resourcing of the major strategic initiatives, including estates, IT and process improvement projects.
1733 – Merchandising
We helped inform the development of corporate merchandising. We drew on our consultants’ commercial experience and previous SUMS work. Offerings at other universities were investigated to formulate high level estimates of potential sales and options were brought forward to capitalise on opportunities.
