Programme Assurance
Peace of mind
Stakeholders need guarantees which can be hard to promise. Delivering a complex change programme is both tricky and risky. So how are expectations managed? A staggering 70% of change programmes don’t deliver what they set out to do. In a fast-moving environment with many parties involved and projects cutting across the organisation, it is difficult to keep things on track and manage expectations.
Programme Assurance is all about giving you peace of mind. It offers an independent, bespoke view to make sure your programmes are heading in the right direction and delivering the value you’re aiming for. By reviewing plans, processes, and progress, we can spot any risks or issues early, helping you stay on track and boosting your chances of success.
Risk Management
Get ahead of problems by identifying what might go wrong and finding practical ways to avoid or manage those risks, keeping your programme on safe ground.
Performance Monitoring
Keep an eye on your progress, making sure you’re sticking to your goals, timelines, and budgets. If something’s off track, you’ll know right away. No surprises.
Benefits Realisation
Make sure all your hard work pays off by focusing on delivering the business outcomes you set out to achieve, so nothing falls through the cracks.
Governance and Control
Check that your programme’s rules and structures actually work and fit with your organisation’s bigger picture, building confidence that everything is managed the right way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Risk management is vital for your programme’s success because it lets you spot, understand, and address potential problems before they disrupt your plans. Risk Management is all about proactive problem solving and informed decision making.
Independent oversight gives you a helpful outside perspective, offering a fresh set of eyes that aren’t caught up in day-to-day routines or internal pressures. These independent reviewers are great at asking the right questions and challenging the usual ways of doing things, so they can spot potential issues or risks that might get missed or be hard for your team to raise on their own.
Nine Feet Tall have a tailor made health check which will provide a quick assessment on your programme’s health and identify areas for improvement. It involves a critical assessment of whether you are on track to deliver maximum benefits and a detailed evaluation of how your project costs, benefits, communications, reporting, risks, planning, resourcing, and governance are being managed.
