Cavendish operates a highly focussed mergers
and acquisition practice for the technology sector across the Asia

Project Recovery Services
The business drivers for employing Project
Recovery Services early in the project life cycle include:
- 49% of project budgets
suffer overruns
- 62% of projects fail
to meet their schedules
- 41% of projects fail
to deliver the business ROI objectives
Cavendish Project
Recovery services employ advanced processes to identify problem
areas, revalidate contract objectives, rebuild schedules and define
a fast-track route to recovery. Where we have been engaged too late
in the project lifecycle for recovery we restate the best options
for the salvage of sunk costs.
Deliverables
of a Cavendish Project Recovery Engagement:
- Project review report
identifying problem areas and a roadmap to recovery
- Project budget review
and forecast of cost to complete
- Reconciliation of project
goals with current project status
- Contract review report
and re-negotiation strategy where applicable
- Toolset review and recommendations
on toolset streamlining
- Project resource review
and optimisation recommendations
- Recommendations on available
Recovery Accelerators
- Optimised reporting and
risk and issue management recommendations
Project Assurance Services
The business drivers for employing Project
Assurance Services early in the program life cycle include:
- Reworking requirements defects on most software
development projects costs between 40% and 80% of total project
effort.
- Requirements defects may cost between 10
to 200 times as much when detected in a production system or
10 times as much if detected during testing as compared to detection
at the requirements definition stage.
- As much as 60% of all defects in a systems
lifetime originate from deficient requirements
- The costs of handling subsequent legal disputes
are often so high that the disadvantaged party abandons the
project or decides to pay more for less scope rather than attempting
to enforce their rights and rescue the project
Cavendish Project Assurance services
reduce project risk, contain costs, and increase the prospects of
on-time delivery of the required solution.

definition to project delivery
