/ Delivery management, Brisbane
Delivery management
A senior delivery manager keeps scope, schedule and benefit in one line of sight, and tells your sponsor early when one of them moves.
Delivery management is the job of getting a program from approved plan to working outcome. Softwired supplies senior delivery managers in Brisbane who own that job for the length of the program.
They run the plan, the risks, the dependencies and the vendors. They report to your sponsor against the benefit in the business case.

Delivering programs since 2010
8 sectors, from mining to professional sport
Our team has worked on programs for Metagenics, Aurizon Network, Suncorp, Origin Energy, the Hunter Valley Coal Chain Coordinator, Orica, Big W, Griffith University and The University of Queensland.
Delivery slips when nobody owns the trade-offs
Most delayed programs have plenty of activity. What they lack is one person who decides, with the sponsor, whether to give up date, scope or budget when something gives.
We put a senior delivery manager in that seat from the first week, so each trade-off reaches the sponsor while it is still cheap to make.
How we work on your program
What you get
What delivery management covers
Planning and sequencing, risk and issue management, dependency and vendor management, status reporting, and release readiness. The delivery manager works in your Jira and Confluence workspace, so your team sees the same plan we do.
How it fits with project management
Delivery management is the day-to-day running of the work. Project management adds budget, governance and benefits reporting. Many programs need both; some only need the first. We tell you which on the discovery call.
Agile, waterfall or both
We run delivery the way the work demands: agile delivery for product teams, staged plans for regulated change, and a mix when a program has both.
Signs this is the right next step
- A program is running late and nobody can say which dependency is the cause.
- Your delivery lead has left and the plan is going stale.
- Several vendors are delivering at once and no one owns the joins.
- The sponsor wants one honest status report.
The questions we get before we start.
