Project & Programme Management
Intercept IT has an extensive Project and Programme Management (PPM) team available to oversee all tactical and strategic engagements. The primary role of this team is to ensure that all Intercept IT’s project based engagements run smoothly, timely and cost effectively.
Our team of PRINCE2 or APM certified project managers and coordinators charge only for the time they spend on an engagement meaning that our project teams provide a cost effective, yet valuable service to track the progress of quality and key deliverables.
Whether you want to consolidate your infrastructure on a virtualised platform, introduce secure remote access to your line of business applications and data from anywhere or simply take advantage of both with the latest cloud solutions - Intercept IT has a successful track record of project managing all these solutions through to completion.
Transition Management
Our Transition Management approach is based on a transition methodology that combines best practice principles with its wide experience of providing services across a number of industry sectors through our own hosted cloud technologies.
During the transition process, we work together to identify, agree and define operational processes to maximise efficiency and minimise cost, as well as to agree realistic and achievable service levels to maintain productivity and enable the client to focus on core developments that deliver competitive edge.
By adopting a disciplined, structured approach to both due diligence and transition, we aim to fully understand the service expectation levels of both your professionals and business users. By establishing these fundamental principles at the outset, we lay the foundations for a mutually rewarding commercial relationship built on trust and understanding.

How it works
Risk management
Our IMPACT methodology ensures that steps are taken from the moment of engagement and continues through to account management. Properly scoping and implementing a project lowers your risk of investing in a solution that will not work or is more extensive than you budgeted resources for.
Personalisation
Though we have worked on many similar cloud computing deployments and virtualisation projects, your company’s needs are unique and important. We come in with an open-mind and upon speaking with you key personnel tailor solutions to your needs. Rather than delivering something “out of the box”, we delivers consultative and carefully crafted solutions, which are based on industry best practice and years of real-world experience, all supported by in-depth technical expertise and governance.
Clarity
We strive to ensure that all key project stakeholders are informed and confident about the implemented solutions. As IT projects are by nature complex, we produce documentation for each step, to eliminate confusion throughout the project and especially during the crucial handover and skills transfer stage at the end of each project.
Some examples of the documentation include:
- Project Definition Document
- Scope of Work
- Design documentation
- Requests for Change
- Implementation Guides
