Reporting management is an enabler
Integration
We gather and integrate data from various sources. This involves collecting data from your organisation's departments, systems, and tools. We combine all this data into one coherent and comprehensive report, providing a holistic view of your project or programme.
RACI
We determine who owns each data feed. We establish clear roles and responsibilities for each data source to ensure clarity and accountability. This is known as the RACI framework (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed). This helps maintain the integrity of the data.
Accuracy
We engage with the project or portfolio leads to validate the information. Our team collaborates closely with project leads to verify the accuracy of the data included in the reports. This validation process ensures that the reports are reliable and reflect the current state of your projects.
