David is an experienced Consultant and Lecturer who has particular expertise in the introduction and implementation of structured methods for Project and Programme Management, systems development, and the introduction, use and application of PRINCE® and SSADM.
From an early career in Industrial and Civil Engineering he moved into computing in 1974 in the water industry into a project to design and build a computerised data base for the National Water Council. After successfully running this database for 7 years he was a direct entrant (through open competition) into the Civil Service. Here for 8 years he was a consultant and trainer in the UK Government's Cabinet Office. He was then approached to join an international computer services company where he spent five years as a Managing Consultant. During this time he developed a unique (and commercially successful) portfolio of software and other tools for users of the PRINCE® methodology.
He now runs his own Consultancy and Training Company which provides services to support users of structured Programme and Project Management methods and the infrastructures that are needed to support their successful use.
David has wide experience in both the public and private sectors. He is able to work at all levels in an organisation and is known, and particularly respected for, his practical, pragmatic and helpful approach.
His expertise is internationally recognised and he has written many articles and books on PRINCE® and on Programme Management. He is a regular presenter at national events, conferences and international seminars. David also develops and presents, on behalf of UNICOM and Monadnock, a regular programme of International Seminars on Programme and Project Management.
David's particular specialisation is in the provision of the necessary infrastructures to support structured Programme and Project Management methods and their successful use and also in providing guidance to support users of the methods.
