RefineM's Services

RefineM Project Management and Agile Services

Organizations that can reliably deliver projects on time, on budget, without surprises, gain a significant advantage over their competitors. This is the case whether the project is internal (e.g., launching a new product or service translating into faster time to market with fewer risks) or external (e.g., developing a product or service for a client translating into happy clients, fast processing of invoices, repeat business, and client referrals).

Here at RefineM, we get the big picture, and that’s why we provide a variety of services—all geared to take your projects (and your project managers) to the next level. RefineM offers the following four categories of services to meet your needs:

Project Recovery

Our mature project recovery methodology is rooted in industry best practices and our decades of real-world experience. Learn more >>

“Because of the value RefineM brought to Evangel University, there was clear value in bringing the firm to Teen Challenge USA. We had looming deadlines, eight projects and a team who lacked project management experience. RefineM provided project management leadership and focused our resources to successfully deliver the projects on time.”

Retrospectives for Agile and Waterfall Teams

Learning from experience during a project can be one of the most important parts of the project for teams that struggle to continuously improve. On Agile projects, retrospectives typically take place at the end of each sprint and provide teams a means of exploring what went well and what could have gone better. Teams emerge from the retrospective energized and ready to improve on their next sprint.
