A concern for many project managers is how to control and manage the risk of project. How the project manager controls the critical phases of the project has a direct result on the outcome. There are critical activities in projects that need to be managed. By managing these activities the project manager streamlines the control process and adds value by not wasting time and avoiding costly errors.

One of the elements of risk in project management is identifying the uncertainties and this exercise may be associated with relying on a consultant’s service(s) to plan, start and complete a project.  Choosing the right consultant or consulting firm with high-quality services and a competent team cannot only rely on testimonials from past projects as in an era of increasingly rapid change in customers’ expectations, technology, and the regulatory landscape, continuous professional development and improvement is needed through an accreditation such as the “Consult” that mitigates such a risk.

What are the risks of using a non-accredited consultant or consulting firm?

Below are few thoughts:

Inexperienced and incompetent staff

Insufficient resource

Incomplete project 

Unclear reports and inappropriate recommendations     

A lack of impartiality

No formal complaints procedure, no higher authority to address consult-client issues

Lack of due diligence

Projects go over budget  

Timelines and goals not achieved

Possible insurance gaps
