APMC services are committed to strong values.
Performance
Our objective is to deliver extraordinary performance to clients:
we strive for perfection to gain the best results possible.
Partnership
Happy customers is the key success factor for every company facing
competition. For an interim manager or consultant clients satisfaction
can be a complex target. Implementation of the projects' objectives
often change habits and ways people work and therefore often provoke
different types of resistance against responsible project managers
preferably external staff. It is therefore very important that clients,
their employees and consultants do consider cooperation with an interim
manager or consultant as valuable partnership rather then unpleasant
necessity. Buy-in for a project is only achieved if the relevant parties
such as key managers, employees and consultants take full ownership
of the project. Often this is achieved through bonuses for accomplished
milestones.
However, the partnership between clients and consultants is based
on absolute integrity and honesty in every single project phase. If
e.g. a projects' scope is unclear or unlikely to provide a reasonable
benefit APMC will point out this fact to the client although this
might mean loosing a consulting opportunity.
Vision
We believe that a company should always have great objectives to be
stronger then its competitors; so does APMC for its clients. We help
clients and their employees to create and keep in mind the vision
of what their company tries to achieve and how the current project
fits in this overall strategy. The big picture is often lost during
hectic project phases and its objectives can even seem ridiculous
or dangerous to employees. We therefore spend a lot of effort in defining
the scope and rationale for all stakeholders of a project .
Pragmatism
Great ideas are not valuable if they can't be realized with available
resources. Due to a faster changing market environment many companies
are trying to realize too many projects at the same time and departments
or business units often claim their projects to be the top-priority.
This makes the notion of “top-priority” useless. APMC helps the client
to understand which projects are to be considered real top-priorities,
i.e. what projects are leading to the strongest competitive advantage,
by choosing a pragmatic approach: focus on what increases the company's
net present value best and work towards excellent results in this
area.
Innovation
A key target of every APMC solution is to make clients stronger then
competitors. This can only be achieved with continuous innovation.
However, innovation can have several meanings: solutions must not
be new but better. Thereby innovation can also mean that clients are
best served by introducing or improving a process type with proven
track record of success. Innovative solutions do often rely on previous
progress
