Programme Aerodynamics

Our unique approach, Programme Aerodynamics, accelerates delivery of high-impact programmes by enabling organisations to anticipate, shape, and manage change across the programme’s lifecycle.

Programme Aerodynamics is delivered through five key components:

Continuous Strategy
Predictive. Proactive. Resilient.
Responds to changing perspectives and environments, providing leadership with the ability to anticipate future needs, develop choices, assess options, and evaluate outcomes. Centred on simulation technology, it provides a radically different approach to Portfolio and Programme Management.

Flexible Architecture
Dynamic. Rapid. Flexible.
A framework to define the key design components of a major programme and manage the relationships between these components. Based on a set of single page templates, it helps manage evolving designs, improves resource reallocation and ensures greater alignment across the programme.

Transformation Delivery
Action. Integration. Evaluation.
A delivery process, a cadence of meetings, which creates a forward looking, problem solving and aligned mindset. By focusing on building a delivery rhythm and transparency, the process accelerates programme delivery and momentum.

Digital Catalyst
Transformative. Innovative. Optimisation.
Delivers digital capabilities to shape the designs of solutions and manage delivery. Leverages technologies such as new sensors, digital twins and control towers to design more precise impactful solutions which can be delivered with greater flexibility. These tools help de-risk design choices and support accelerated delivery.

Human System Design
Adaptive. Cohesive. Pre-emptive.
An approach that ensures that at each stage of the programme life cycle, the right roles, skills, capabilities and leadership styles are in place. In addition, HSD leverages the Flexible Architecture design to ensure we can pivot the programme management structure to respond to evolving requirements.
