All of Square Mile’s consultants have a wide range of project
management experience, gained over a broad range of projects throughout
the financial services industry. This experience ensures a good understanding
both of the business needs and of the critical success factors relating
to projects.
We use an approach based on PRINCE, the methodology developed as
a government standard. This approach concentrates on the deliverables
of a project, focusing on their quality, as well as the monitoring,
review and control of the processes during their production.
Independent reviews of major projects have consistently identified
poor quality project management skills as a prime reason for the
failure of projects. This applies to both large and small projects.
Square Mile has in-depth experience of project management in the
wholesale, retail and investment banking industries.

- Accurately define scope and manage change
