Course Overview

Most recovery effort on claims automation projects is spent on problems that were visible early. A schedule for this part of project and portfolio delivery without a critical path is a wish list with dates. Ambition around the project and portfolio delivery capability outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. It treats claims automation projects as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of this strand of project and portfolio delivery rather than to abstract argument. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better the project and portfolio delivery capability is rarely technical. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of claims automation projects to standardise and which to leave flexible. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with this area of project and portfolio delivery. Work concludes with a self-assessment of the project and portfolio delivery discipline that participants can repeat annually.
