Project Health Check

You think you know when you're going live.

Can you prove it?

1

Does your board pack withstand scrutiny on budget, contingencies, and mitigations?

2

Can you pinpoint every project issue and progression bottleneck right now?

3

Is your data migration fully automated with with overnight testing and validation?

4

Are all your interfaces fully specified, error-handled, and something your team can own after go-live?

5

Does your team actually have the capacity to deliver this alongside BAU?

If you hesitated on any of these — that's exactly the kind of thing a health check is for.

Programme & Project Management

Everyone's flat out. Nothing's moving.

Drowning in workshops, struggling to juggle BAU, and can't seem to make real headway on the project.

The vendor project plan says you'll be live in 12 months — you just can't keep up, despite pulling out all the stops.

Project team members have completely different levels of competency and different ways of working. Nobody seems to know what anyone else is doing.

Burning through the budget at twice the rate you expected — things just keep coming out of the woodwork.

Is it just us?

It's not. This is what almost every HMS implementation looks like without dedicated programme support.

Data Migration

Data migration is like opening Pandora's box.

Source data scattered across multiple systems and disparate spreadsheets.

Same errors every pass — fixed in real time, but they keep coming back.

Every vendor data pass is a mad panic — then a frantic rush to resolve validation errors during the load window.

Transformations in spreadsheets — someone breaks the sheet, start again.

Nobody knows how much to migrate, how much to archive, or who the data owners are.

Source data keeps changing — the system's still in use — how do you keep up?

Source data keeps changing — the system's still in use — how do you keep up?

It doesn't have to be like this.

Imagine arriving each morning to a report of exactly what failed validation overnight — already categorised, already actionable. No digging. No surprises.

Issues resolved progressively, day by day — not in a frantic scramble the night before a data pass. Transformations that run themselves, repeatable and reliable, regardless of how many source systems you're pulling from.

When it's time for your vendor data pass, you go in knowing the data is clean. No panic. No last-minute fixes. Just confidence.

Extraction Automated, repeatable, source-agnostic

Transformation Rules-based — no spreadsheets, no guesswork

Validation Runs nightly, issues surfaced by morning

Load Clean data, confident vendor pass

System Interfacing

I'm worried about our interfaces

You've explained the requirement four times. They've handed it back twice. It still doesn't work.

Nobody told you what to prepare for the scoping calls — and the vendor assumed you already knew.

They want field mappings signed off — but the system isn't even configured yet.

The vendor marks it "done" — you open it and it falls apart on first test.

Something breaks in production. Both sides point at each other. Nobody owns it.

A tiny mapping change. The vendor quotes a day-rate. You're locked in.

You're not alone — and there are ways to take back control.

With the right preparation, clear specs, and proper testing, you can own your interface designs and make changes yourself — no vendor day-rate.

What You Get

What a health check covers

A focused initial conversation — not a full audit. We ask the right questions to surface where the pressure points are.

Programme status

Timelines, governance, and whether resources match scope.

Data readiness

Extraction, transformation, validation — and whether it's being tested regularly.

Integration landscape

What systems connect, how they're specified, and what's been missed.

Key risks

The areas that commonly cause projects to slip — and whether they're already showing.

Team & vendor dynamics

Capacity, clarity of responsibilities, and where decisions are getting stuck.

Practical next steps

Honest input, no sales pitch — just what to prioritise based on experience.
