Client-Side Leadership Vendor Transitions Delivery Governance GCC Programs Risk Control

What We Do

Outsourcing and delivery programs often fail not because of strategy, but because execution lacks ownership. SCG provides independent project/program, transition, and governance leadership to help organizations manage vendors, align internal teams, and deliver change in a controlled and predictable manner.
We work across the full lifecycle, from early readiness and planning to transition execution and stabilization.

Early readiness and planning

Seamless execution

Full lifecycle support

Continuous improvement

This enhances consistency, visibility, and speed without replacing human judgement.

What Clients Typically Achieve With Us

SCGachieve

Controlled vendor transitions

Structured planning, clear milestones, and active risk management help ensure knowledge transfer and ramp-up happen without service disruption.

Improved delivery governance

Clear roles, decision forums, and executive reporting reduce ambiguity, escalation noise, and management overhead.

Faster stabilization and predictable outcomes

Focused attention during the first 60–90 days helps avoid common pitfalls such as SLA leakage, ownership gaps, and delayed benefits realization.

How We Work: ACTIV Methodology™

Our engagements are delivered using SCG’s ACTIV Methodology™, a structured, stage- gated approach designed for complex outsourcing and delivery programs.

ACTIV is built around clearly defined phases, each governed by entry and exit criteria to ensure readiness before moving forward. This brings discipline, transparency, and control to high-risk programs.

Each phase concludes with a formal stage gate, ensuring risks are addressed, dependencies are resolved, and stakeholders are aligned before progressing.

AI-Enabled Delivery Support: ACTIV AI™

SCG leverages its own trademarked AI assistant to support project execution and governance. The tool acts as a project co-pilot, helping teams with:

Risk identification and mitigation tracking
Effort estimation and scenario planning
Governance notes, actions, and decision logs
Dashboard creation and executive reporting
Ongoing assessment of delivery health and outcomes

This enhances consistency, visibility, and speed without replacing human judgement.

Start With a Short Discovery Conversation

Most engagements with SCG begin with a focused discovery call. This allows us to understand your objectives, scope, delivery risks, and timelines before proposing an engagement model.

Following this conversation, we outline a clear scope of work, recommended approach, and a transparent commercial structure aligned to your needs.

Still have a questions?

What does SCG do, in simple terms?

SCG helps organizations deliver transition and transformation programs with strong governance, delivery control, and executive visibility, especially when vendors and multiple stakeholders are involved.

What type of engagements does SCG typically handle?

We typically support:
• Vendor transitions and outsourcing changes
• Operating model shifts
• Multi-workstream transformation programs
• Site / vendor consolidations
• GCC setup & enhancements
• Delivery governance where risk and visibility are critical
• Vendor exits

How do you price your engagements?

We use engagement-based pricing, not hourly or day rates. Pricing is aligned to scope, complexity, risk, and duration.
Typical engagements start at USD 15,000, with final commercials confirmed after scoping.

Do you work on hourly/day rate or staff augmentation basis?

No. SCG does not operate as staff augmentation or generic PM resourcing.
Our role is independent governance from client’s side, delivery oversight with defined outcomes and measurable deliverables.

What engagement models do you offer?

We offer three models:
• Small Transition / Transformation (3–12 weeks)
• Core Transition / Transformation (12–20 weeks)
• Large Transition / Transformation (20+ weeks)
The model depends on delivery risk, stakeholder complexity, and program footprint.

What exactly will we receive as deliverables?

SCG provides tangible outputs such as:
• Effort estimations, detailed business analytics
• Governance framework and cadence
• Transition execution plan and trackers
• Risk, dependency, and decision logs
• Performance dashboards and executive reporting
• Value realization summary and forward roadmap
Deliverables vary by scope but are explicitly defined upfront.

What are your payment terms?

We keep terms simple and transparent:
• Milestone-based payments for fixed engagements
• Monthly invoicing for longer programs
• Standard payment terms: 30 days from invoice

Can SCG sign NDAs, MSAs, and SOWs?

Yes. We are fully comfortable working within procurement processes and signing:
• Mutual NDA
• MSA
• SOW / commercial proposal documentation

Do you work globally (ANZ/UK/US)? Where is SCG based?

Yes. SCG supports clients globally, including ANZ, UK, and US. Delivery can be:
• Remote-first governance
• Hybrid model if required for key milestones/workshops

Who will actually do the work? Is SCG a team or a solo firm?

SCG engagements are led directly by senior leadership to ensure accountability and quality. Additional support of trusted resources onboard may be introduced as required to maintain cadence and execution control, without impacting governance ownership or outcomes.

What makes SCG different from a large consulting firm?

SCG brings:
• Exact experience of more than 2 decades
• Domain specific project managers
• Senior attention (no layers)
• Speed and clarity
• Clear governance & accountability from day 1
• Strong delivery control
• Cost advantage
• Outcome-based engagement structure
Clients choose SCG when execution certainty matters more than large-team staffing.

What makes SCG different from hiring a PM or program manager?

A PM typically tracks tasks. SCG provides:
• Governance design + execution control
• Vendor coordination oversight
• Risk, dependency, and decision ownership
• Executive-level visibility and intervention mechanism
• Its trademarked methodology and AI engine
It’s governance as a capability, not a role.

What if scope changes mid-engagement?

If scope materially changes, SCG re-aligns commercials and delivery plan transparently. We avoid open-ended engagements without defined outcomes.

How do we start working with SCG?

We start with a 30–45 minute discovery call to understand your context and assess fit. From there:
• We recommend the engagement model
• Confirm scope and deliverables
• Share a commercial proposal / SOW for sign-off
