Managed Project Services

A PMO typically provides process, reporting and oversight, but accountability for delivery still sits with the business. MPS owns the delivery outcome itself. Saros is accountable for whether the programme lands, not just for how it is governed. Governance is part of the service, not the whole of it.

Staff augmentation gives you people. You still manage them, coordinate them, and carry the delivery risk. MPS gives you a service with a single accountable owner. Continuity is built in, so delivery does not depend on any one individual remaining on the engagement.

MPS is built for complex, high stakes programmes where the cost of failure is significant.
Saros is independent and vendor neutral by design, with no technology alliances. Recommendations and delivery decisions are made solely on what is right for the client’s business.
The senior people who shape the engagement remain accountable for delivering it. Clients work directly with experienced practitioners rather than through multiple tiers of staffing, which matters most on programmes where seniority and judgement determine the outcome.
Delivery quality is actively governed throughout every engagement. Saros audits performance, decisions and outcomes on a continuous basis, ensuring a consistent standard is maintained rather than assumed.
MPS combines the seriousness and scale of a major delivery service with the independence and senior accountability that complex programmes actually need.

Yes. MPS is designed to be engaged at any stage, including initiation, mid delivery, and recovery. Where a programme is off track, Saros stabilises and resets delivery before taking full ownership through to completion. Where complexity is high, structured discovery validates feasibility before further investment is committed.

MPS operates as a service rather than a collection of individuals, which means capacity flexes to delivery need and mobilisation is rapid. Senior expertise is applied where it adds the most value, with the model scaling across projects, programmes and portfolios without increasing complexity for the client.

Either. MPS can be structured under fixed price or time and materials commercial models. These are payment mechanisms only. Scope, assumptions and change control are clearly defined in every engagement so that delivery remains controlled and transparent. Accountability is built into the service regardless of commercial structure.

Yes. Saros is vendor neutral by design. Recommendations and delivery decisions are driven by what is right for the client’s business, not by relationships with platform or technology vendors. Independent challenge is an explicit part of the service, with risks surfaced early rather than after impact.

A single reliable view of delivery rather than multiple conflicting status reports. A single accountable owner for outcomes. Executive ready reporting suitable for board and audit scrutiny. A proportionate governance structure actively managing delivery.

Yes. MPS operates through a consistent global delivery model, with single point accountability retained by Saros, onshore leadership and executive engagement, and consistent governance and reporting standards across locations. Geography does not change accountability or delivery standards.

MPS is designed to be engaged at executive level, typically the CIO, CTO, Head of IT, or programme sponsor. Saros provides executive ready reporting and engagement from day one, so the relationship is structured for board and senior leadership visibility rather than operational coordination.
