Paul Sutton talks to Mick Edmondson, who specialises in the project management of complex cross-border restructurings, including legal entity reduction / corporate rationalisation and digital transformation programs. They look at how to manage large-scale projects so that they deliver the intended results, the different methodologies that are appropriate in different situations, and some of the technology and tools that are available.


Paul and Mick’s discussion covers:

  • The definition of a project, and what distinguishes this from ‘business as usual’
  • The cost / benefit analysis of devoting time and resource to project management, as opposed to ‘just getting on with it’
  • The crucial importance of bringing together all the key stakeholders at the start, and getting top-level buy-in
  • A basic framework process that helps to avoid common pitfalls
  • Some potential consequences of not completing each stage before moving on to the next
  • The main project management methodologies, and when each is appropriate
  • The key questions that a Head of Tax should address when considering starting a significant project
  • Some of the technology tools that are available, and how to use them most effectively
  • Key takeaways for people who are contemplating a large or complex project.
