Technology and managed services provider Intuate Group has been certified by Post Vision Technology as a Project Portfolio Office (PPO) training partner.
The company will now be able to provide formal administration, user, life cycle, and management training to existing clients, including Group Five and Nedbank, as well as any new PPO users.
PPO is a Web-based project management application, locally developed by Post Vision Technology, and provided on a software-as-a-service platform to assist organisations across different industries to manage projects and project portfolios.
Obtaining this training certification forms part of Intuate Group's drive to align itself with the four key areas of the new PPO partner programme, namely training, sales and marketing, implementation, and support, before the programme officially kicks off on 1 March.
According to Mia Roux, training manager at Post Vision Technology, sharing the work load with certified training partners such as Intuate Group increases the number of PPO users that can be trained per year. More end-user training leads to greater successes within the organisations using PPO, she adds.
"Training is crucial for all users to be able to take advantage of the full functionality of PPO, as it provides the foundation from where they can improve project management processes and perform change control, while it also minimises the support that might be required later on.”
Peter Green, programme and project management executive at Intuate Group, says: "Our certification broadens the reach of the PPO training offering for PPO users, which means more flexibility in terms of group sizes, pricing structures, as well as timing, where users might be accommodated faster."
Green states that with the PPO offering becoming increasingly popular, Intuate welcomes the new partner model, and believes the formal grading processes will ensure a higher quality of service is maintained according to the grading level achieved by each partner.
