It’s not easy to become a Broadsword consultant.  Our professionals have years of hands-on engineering experience, and all have spent time with both engineering and management consulting firms honing their unique combination of skills.  They have been in the trenches and have lived the challenges you live with every day.  While proud of their PMP, Scrum Master, ISO, or SEI CMMI certifications, where they really add value is their expertise with planning,  communications, organizational change, facilitation, coaching, and implementing sustainable change.  Add to that Broadsword’s tools and methods, and you have a powerful, positive force at your disposal.

Executive Consulting

Sometimes you need strategic advice from an experienced hand or you just have questions about what the future holds. Maybe you need help framing the value of process improvement to your management, or need to better understand the value of CMMI. Our Executive Consulting service gives you face-to-face access to our most senior SEI Certified SCAMPI Lead Appraiser to discuss your most important and complex issues.

Senior Consulting

Our Senior Consultants are leaders in their respective fields and know how to make you successful.  They serve as coaches, facilitators, mentors, teachers, and trusted advisors.   They will help you drive your program to a successful conclusion, working with you on a scheduled basis to incrementally put you on the path to greatness and help you reduce process debt using Broadsword’s methods and tools.

Process Architecture Consulting

Any successful process improvement effort, especially those leading to ML3 performance, requires a cohesive process architecture.  Broadsword has pioneered the concept of a flexible, object-oriented architecture that simplifies process improvement and gives you the agility you need to be successful.  Our Process Architecture Consulting will accelerate your efforts, reducing months to days and bringing the experience of our many clients along with our methods and tools.

AgileCMMI Consulting

Broadsword’s agileCMMI methodology is our proven method for incrementally improving engineering performance with the smallest amount of overhead possible.  Our consultants are well trained and experienced at leading and coaching using this branded solution while teaching you how to improve performance.

Appraisal Planning and Preparation Consulting

As you near the time for your SCAMPI ML2 or ML3 appraisal sometimes you need a little help.  Data collection, PIID creation, data analysis, or just someone to help you “make the call” about the quality of the process and the evidence.  Broadsword consultants are experts at making this task, often thought of as tedious, as simple and efficient as possible.
