Project Management

Project Management

PODBIM supports you in the implementation of technical commercial projects, from concept development to successful realization. With expertise in classic, agile and hybrid project management as well as multi-project management, we support expansions and relocations of production facilities as well as mechanical and plant engineering projects on both the client and contractor side. Our holistic approach takes into account the needs of clients and users, forms project alliances and ensures that roles are clearly allocated. We also optimize life-cycle costs for long-term savings. Contact us to find out more about our services and how we can work together to make your project a success.

What you get out of it

  1. Schedule and budget stability through transparent project steering.
  2. Clear roles between owner-side and contractor-side.
  3. Reduced risk through early stakeholder and interface work.
  4. Reliable status information for executive management and steering.
  5. Clean hand-over to plant, operations or asset team.

What you concretely receive

  1. Project charter and stakeholder map.
  2. Phase plan with milestones and risk register.
  3. Weekly status report with risk/issue log.
  4. Interface and responsibility matrix (RACI).
  5. Lessons-learned documentation.
  6. Project hand-over package.

Who we work with

Owner-side (project owner / plant owner): You face a production expansion or relocation and need independent project steering with clear role guidance versus general contractors.

Contractor-side (plant engineering, machine building, EPC): You deliver to an industrial customer and need project management with reliable schedule discipline and interface control.

Industrial company in transformation: You are planning a production move, plant modernisation or line expansion in DACH and need a steering partner.

How we work

  1. Discover — Positioning, stakeholder mapping, data baseline review.
  2. Frame — Target picture, scope and success criteria fixed jointly.
  3. Plan — Roadmap, phase plan, risk register, delivery definitions.
  4. Steer — Weekly steering, status reports, issue/change management.
  5. Hand-over — Hand-over to plant/operations team, lessons learned, anchoring.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which projects does PODBIM typically manage?

Plant engineering, machine building, production expansion and production relocation in DACH — owner-side and contractor-side.

Classical, agile or hybrid?

The methodology is chosen to fit the project; mostly hybrid for technical-commercial industrial projects.

What is the difference between owner-side and contractor-side PM?

Owner-side is project-owner representation safeguarding project goals; contractor-side focuses on delivery discipline and interface control toward the owner.

Which artefacts will I receive?

Project charter, phase plan with milestones, risk register, status report, RACI, lessons learned and project hand-over package.

How big does a project have to be?

From a scoped plant-expansion module to a multi-year relocation — scaling via multi-project steering.

How does the engagement start?

Initial conversation + positioning + scope workshop + proposal with methodology, timeline and effort.
