A professional Project Business Manager on prime contractor side has the the skills to induce changes in a troubled project to effectively reinstate the profitability of the project for the own organization and ensure the satisfaction of customer and sub-contractors.

This program expands the set of project management competencies with those needed to successfully manage a customer project under contract as a prime contractor.

The ability to mediate between customer and subcontractors is essential for the prime contractor. Diverse business interests and corporate cultures affect a number of mission-critical challenges. In international project supply networks (PSNs), this is amplified by differences in time zones, cultures and legal systems, whose effective meeting makes the difference between success and failure, but also between profit and loss.

Examples from reality show that project managers achieve the highest success in these situations, when they establish a "Mission Success First" culture together with the customer, own management and employees, and subcontractors, to ensure "Completing before competing" and jointly achieve project goals.

Particularly important aspects of our offering are avoidance of and response to crises, for which we present established approaches, but also new ones like benefit engineering and rolling award fee contracts.
