Why this matters

Most transformations fail in the gap between a plan and the work.  We close that gap with an approach that blends governance, delivery leadership, and practical change, so your programs land, scale, and sustain.

Philosophy: Governance provides clarity.  Delivery builds momentum.  Outcomes create sustainability.

Our Approach: From strategy to execution, built for measurable impact.  We connect strategy to day to day delivery through a simple, proven operating system.  Leaders see what’s happening, teams know what to do next, and results are measured. 

Our Promise...We don’t just deliver frameworks, we deliver capability.  Our approach builds systems you can run, dashboards you can trust, and governance you can scale.  The result? Organizations that don’t just finish projects, they create lasting impact.

Our Position | The Client Experience

Our strength is execution.  With proven expertise across Fortune 500, Saas, and retail, we build governance that lasts, tools teams embrace, and outcomes that sustain growth. 




Integrated, not isolated.  Governance, delivery, and change operate together, not in silos..

A partner who listens first, then builds a structure that fits.



Outcome-driven.  Every stage includes metrics, not just milestones.

A team that speaks your language, technical, operational, and executive.



Tailored by design.  Enterprise discipline, customized for your scale, culture, and technology stack.

A roadmap with milestones you can measure and own.



A timeline is a graphical representation on which important events are marked.

A cadence that keeps leadership informed and teams accountable.



Technology-enabled.  We use Smartsheet, Power BI, Microsoft 365, and AI tools to connect strategy to delivery.

A relationship built on trust, clarity, and execution excellence.



People first.  We invest in your team’s capability, so progress sustains long after we leave.

When you work with Goddard, you won’t get a report and a handshake.

Implementation Model | The Heartbeat

By crafting unique and compelling brand identities that leave a lasting impact. 

Governance & Cadence


  • Intake & Prioritization: criteria, scoring, capacity view

  • Status Cadence: weekly team check-ins; biweekly portfolio review; monthly steering

  • RAID Discipline: risk appetite, thresholds, owners, due dates, escalation paths

  • Decision Authority: RACI + “who decides what, by when” (and how it’s recorded)

  • Steering Materials: one-page exec briefs; exception highlights; asks & decisions

Roles that make it Work


  • Sponsor: accountabilities, KPIs, decision windows

  • PMO Lead / Program Lead: cadence owner, reporting integrity

  • Workstream Lead: delivery owner; RAID updates; demo reviewer

  • Change Lead: readiness heatmap, comms, training/adoption KPIs

  • Data/Admin: dashboard refresh, integrations, template hygiene 

Measurement


  • Delivery: milestone attainment %, schedule variance, burn variance

  • Risk/Flow: issue aging, decision latency, dependency cycle time

  • Adoption: training completion, usage/adoption scores, survey pulses

  • Value: benefits realization (leading/lagging), cost avoidance, cycle-time deltas 

Collaboration Stack 


  • Smartsheet: work plans, intake, RAID, approvals, automations

  • Microsoft 365 / Power BI: executive roll-ups, KPI trends, portfolio analytics

  • Jira / Dev tools (as needed): integration for status sync & dependency view

  • CRM/ERP: alignment for funding, benefits, and operational KPIs 

Responsible AI & Automation 


  • Use cases: predictive risks, capacity forecasting, variance alerts, NL status drafting

  • Guardrails: explainability, data minimization, audit logs, human-in-the-loop reviews

  • Value lens: only automate when it reduces decision latency or reporting burden 

ERP Transformation


  • Assess: data quality scan, process mapping, readiness checkpoints

  • Design: integration & cutover blueprint; role-based training paths; adoption KPIs

  • Execute: migration rehearsals, command center, hypercare playbook

  • Sustain: post-go-live stabilization dashboards; accountability for defect aging & cycle times
