Better Project Management

Welcome to Crystal Consulting. We help organisations fix project management problems — whether that’s rescuing troubled projects, improving how projects are delivered, or upskilling your people so they get it right the first time.

We’re a team of experienced project professionals based in New Zealand and working globally. Our services cover three key areas: project delivery (we get stuck in and manage projects for you), consulting (we review, advise, and improve your project systems), and training (we build your team’s capability through practical, jargon-free learning).

If your projects are running late, over budget, lack clear governance, or just feel harder than they should — we can help. No fluff, no buzzwords. Just expert support that gets real results.

Let’s talk about how we can solve your project management challenges.

Consultancy

We offer a range of project management delivery, rescue, and consulting services, all tailored to meet the unique needs of your organization. All of our project management practitioners hold the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification from the Project Management Institute (PMI).

We also specialise in delivering a comprehensive range of professional project management consulting services that actually help you and your organisation succeed — no gimmicks, just real tangible results based on decades of real world experience.

As an official AXELOS Consulting Partner (ACP), we offer world-class Portfolio, Programme, and Project Management (P3M3®) maturity assessments with actionable recommendations for improvement. In plain English: we help you figure out where you are and how to get where you want to be.

But that's not all. We've developed our own suite of tools based on empirical data collected over years of experience to assess and boost your project management maturity, capability, and success rates.

Check these out:

3PM™: Let's assess your current level of project management maturity and craft the right improvement actions.
