Project Management Services

UCL Business PLC can provide Departments and Institutes with a comprehensive project management service.

For a negotiated fee we will provide staff equipped with the appropriate knowledge, contacts, expertise and experience capable of supporting either substantive single or multiple projects.

These individuals will play an active role in the project team, assisting the Principal Investigator and Departmental Administrators in managing the full life cycle of the project and contribute to effective teamwork within the project group. They will maintain effective liaison with internal and external key people and organisations.

More specifically these individuals will:

1. Lead project management activity to ensure that projects are delivered according to the project plan and funding allocations.

2. Play an active role in project teams troubleshooting problems and assisting the researchers in managing various aspects of the project. They will demonstrate personal commitment and contribution to effective teamwork across the full range of project activities including the maintenance of effective liaison with external and internal key people and organisations.

3. Liaise regularly with and co-ordinate the project activities of involved parties including grant providers, external funding parties and relevant UCLB staff.

4. Provide information and advice to the relevant Business Manager at UCLB necessary for them to make effective project-related decisions.

5. Assist in negotiations for the handling of all arising intellectual property, and identify mechanisms for effective commercialisation, where applicable.

6. Provide a continuing flow of information to the other project groups regarding general project developments and to respond to other project related queries.

7. Ensure that the Principal Investigator has the information necessary for effective decision making.
