Trends and Challenges
in the World
Increasing difficulty in project management due to increasingly complex and sophisticated business/IT environments and shortage of PM talent
The IT environment surrounding companies is rapidly becoming more complex and sophisticated due to accelerating DX promotion, addressing aging legacy systems, utilizing IoT/AI, and the generalization of multi-vendor systems including offshore.Accordingly, system requirements and stakeholder interests handled by projects are increasing, and cases that cannot be addressed with conventional approaches are growing.
Meanwhile, there is a shortage of PM talent capable of properly leading such complex projects, and with ad-hoc responses or vendor-dependent systems, risks such as quality degradation and schedule delays tend to materialize.
To maintain and strengthen competitiveness, accurate visualization of situations, early detection of risks, and quality assurance through standardized project management are essential.
EBSS has experienced many large-scale and complex projects in manufacturing and has accumulated know-how in execution management and risk management. Leveraging this expertise, we provide support to guide client projects to success.
