Ship On Time with a
Delivery Plan That Works
Ambitious roadmaps collapse when nobody models dependencies, bench-marks velocity, or defines escalation paths. We build delivery plans grounded in your team's real capacity β with governance checkpoints that catch drift before it becomes crisis.
Your Delivery Planning Toolkit
Everything your programme manager, scrum masters, and stakeholders need to execute with confidence.
Release Roadmap & Milestone Plan
A visual roadmap with quarterly milestones, release dates, and dependency links β structured so leadership and delivery teams see the same picture.
Resource & Capacity Model
Role-by-role staffing plan mapped to sprints, with buffer allocations for unplanned work and ramp-up timelines for new hires.
Velocity Baseline & Forecast
Historical velocity analysis (or calibrated estimates for new teams) with sprint-over-sprint projections and confidence intervals.
Risk-Adjusted Timeline
Three-scenario modelling β optimistic, likely, and pessimistic β with Monte Carlo simulation for high-stakes milestones.
Governance & Escalation Framework
RACI matrix, decision-rights register, steering committee cadence, and escalation criteria so blockers get resolved in hours, not weeks.
Sprint Zero Playbook
Technical environment setup checklist, CI/CD pipeline requirements, coding standards, and definition of done β so sprint one starts clean.
Our Delivery Planning Process
Scope & Context Review
We review the product backlog, architecture decisions, team composition, and any prior plans to understand what's real and what's aspirational.
Days 1β3Capacity & Velocity Analysis
Analyse team velocity history (or calibrate with estimation sessions) and model realistic throughput across the planning horizon.
Days 4β6Dependency Mapping
Identify cross-team, third-party, and infrastructure dependencies β then sequence work to minimise blocking and maximise parallel execution.
Days 7β9Roadmap Construction
Build the release roadmap with milestones, governance checkpoints, and risk-adjusted buffers baked into the timeline.
Days 10β13Plan Review & Handoff
Walk stakeholders through the plan, stress-test assumptions, incorporate feedback, and hand off a living document your PMO can maintain.

Schedule Free ConsultationWho Needs Delivery Planning
If your project has more than one team, a hard deadline, or external dependencies, structured delivery planning pays for itself.
Multi-Team Programmes
You're coordinating 3+ squads across time zones and need a unified plan that accounts for cross-team dependencies and shared services.
Programme ManagementFixed-Deadline Initiatives
Regulatory go-live, product launch, or contract milestone β you can't slip, so the plan needs realistic buffers and early-warning triggers.
Hard DeadlinesPost-Discovery Kickoffs
Discovery is done, the backlog is ready, but nobody has sequenced the work or modelled capacity. We bridge the gap to sprint one.
Sprint ZeroRescue & Re-Planning
The current plan has drifted beyond recognition. We re-baseline scope, reset expectations with stakeholders, and create a recovery roadmap.
Project RecoveryWhy Our Delivery Plans Stick
We've planned programmes for banks, insurers, and high-growth startups β where missed deadlines have real consequences.

92% Milestone Accuracy Across a 9-Month Banking Programme
Delivery Planning for Core Banking Migration
A regional bank was migrating from a legacy core to a modern microservices platform. We built a 9-month delivery plan spanning 4 squads, 3 third-party integrations, and a regulator-mandated go-live date β and they hit 11 of 12 milestones on schedule.
Hard regulatory deadline with no room for delay
The bank had a regulator-mandated cutover date. Four development squads were distributed across two time zones, and three critical third-party integrations had their own release schedules that couldn't be influenced.
Our Approach: We ran calibration sprints to establish velocity baselines, mapped all 47 cross-team dependencies, built a risk-adjusted roadmap with Monte Carlo confidence intervals, and established a bi-weekly steering cadence that caught two critical blockers 6 weeks early.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most PMOs maintain plans β we create them. We bring delivery expertise from 85+ projects, structured risk modelling, and velocity-calibrated forecasting that goes beyond Gantt charts and gut feel.
