Your programme is late.
The answers don’t add up.
We lead delivery and recovery on programmes where the plan, the suppliers and the business have stopped agreeing. Our consultants have done this at Currys, Standard Chartered, Alshaya and MYPINPAD.
Tell us where delivery stands and what is worrying you most. We will tell you what we would look at first, what we have seen work in that situation, and whether this is something we can help with.

Why work with Battlehill
Clear responsibility.
From delivery to adoption.
A lead who owns the connections
Complexity often sits between workstreams. We take responsibility for the agreed delivery scope and manage the dependencies between your teams, suppliers and decision makers.
You receive an integrated plan, named owners and recommendations that explain the effect on cost, timing and business readiness.
See programme recovery at CurrysPeople readiness in the delivery plan
We bring change management into delivery from the outset. Process decisions, sponsorship, communications, learning and operational preparation have owners and milestones alongside the technical work.
You see where people are ready, where adoption is exposed and what needs to happen before and after launch.
See change across 56 countriesEnterprise experience at the right scale
A critical project in a growing business may need one experienced lead. A transformation may need several disciplines working together. We define the responsibility first, then agree the people and controls it requires.
You can commission a focused review, an individual specialist or a managed scope with clear fees, deliverables and acceptance.
Compare ways to work with usAn agreed handover from the start
We plan for the point when your team takes ownership. Operating records, knowledge transfer, support routes and residual actions are part of the engagement from mobilisation.
Your team receives the information and working knowledge it needs to manage the service and sustain the change.

Experienced support.
Built around your team.
For a growing business, we can bring structure and expertise to an important project without assuming you have a large internal delivery team. For an enterprise programme, we connect sponsors, workstreams, suppliers and business readiness. In both cases, the scope, responsibilities and ways of working are agreed around your organisation.
