Presentation Case Study

This case study will take you through the long term implementation of Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) in a large Pharma.  From the first pilot in the IT component, to the global roll out in the Product Development PMO, we will discuss success factors, barriers, and how the organization has declared CCPM not as a Project Management Methodology but as our Operating System. We will discuss how we leveraged the integration of CCPM with our Six Sigma efforts in order to gain speed to delivery.
