Programs that will transform results for you

Akshaya Centre of Excellence, ACE in short, is a project delivery excellence firm formed by world class professionals who have worked in top positions for top global companies. Founded by Nagaraja Gundappa, ACE team consists of result oriented, hands-on people who have solved day-to-day project delivery problems with innovative solutions and can ensure that our services can deliver results for your organisation. Our logo conveys that rays of our insights make a tree to bear fruits, where the tree represents an organisation and fruits represent organisational results such as reduced cost, increased customer satisfaction, increased repeat business from customers and so on. As our byliner says, transforming results is our motto in all our services rather than stopping short at just providing the service. Result transformation can have different meaning and implication for customers of different profile: 

  • For participants looking for certification such as PMP, CPRE etc, we not only offer result-oriented training but also provide follow up services and so far, our success rate (of number of our students getting certified in first attempt) is above 90%.
  • For project managers who want to improve their project execution, we provide training programs loaded with real life examples and case studies so that the learnings are applicable at day to day work. Thus, the students can apply the learning at work, improve the efficiency thereby transforming the project results.
  • For business heads looking for organisational results, we provide customised delivery transformation programs covering their entire project manager pool combining customised training content, mentoring and assessments to deliver targeted result improvement.

Our delivery transformation programs are highly relevant for software service organisations that are moving towards more of fixed price projects and their regular quality processes are inadequate to manage the challenges of fixed price projects. Having ourselves gone through such a journey from an environment with predominantly T & M projects to predominantly Fixed Price Projects, we can offer packages that can be very specific and precise to the needs of the customer and transform their results The customer needs in the delivery transformation area vary based on their process maturity level, type of contract mix (Time & Material v/s Fixed Price contracts), project portfolio (ground up development v/s package implementation v/s maintenance support) and team size. And having seen variety, we understand the flair of specific needs of the customer and we tailor-make training curriculum and deliverables of consulting programs to ensure that results are transformed for the customer. 

Our consultants carry in-depth delivery insights and are excellent in training too, having won awards for delivery transformation through training and mentoring. We update ourselves with the cutting-edge know-how in the area of project delivery and we also publish white papers and speak at industry forums. Please go through the result show-case for specific case studies on result transformation. 

Backed by this unique strength, we offer faculty-led class room training programs, various types of consulting services, e-learning course on-line, on-line and off-line assessment for project managers, self-assessment and evaluation-based assessments for project managers, and a resource centre with free resources.

  • We don’t chase volumes and we only offer specialised programs that carry a deep understanding of customer needs and deliver our services to the complete delight of our customers
  • While our services are not cheap, they offer a very high degree of value for money, coming from stellar industry experts.
