      <title>CheckPoint Partners Provides IT Governance Support to Executives of Major Companies</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>Quincy, MA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 12/11/2012 --  Companies looking to drive change through strategy and execution often have no clear tools to achieve goals which have been set. CheckPoint Partners has created a 360 degree <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="IT Governance" href="http://www.checkpointpartners.com/">IT Governance</a> Model which is a toolkit used to characterize and surface risks. Techniques and interventions are used to enhance capabilities necessary to undertake changes which are critical. "The unique assessment process used by CheckPoint Partners identifies the change corridor a company needs to make use of to maximize return on investment," Corey Gorman explains.<br />
<br />
Companies must not only focus on the here and now, they must also plan for the long term. Any plans that are made must connect across the enterprise. "When a company turns to CheckPoint Partners for help with their <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Strategic Governance" href="http://www.checkpointpartners.com">Strategic Governance</a>, the process is defined to ensure long-term success. This is done by defining the governance model so it aligns strategic processes with lifecycle, technical and operational processes. Doing so ensures consistency now and in the future," Mr. Gorman explains. "Once the long term strategy has been identified, day to day processes must be analyzed. Processes become very technical and difficult, but companies often fall into a rut and don&apos;t see the need to change. CheckPoint Partners comes in, identifies barriers to success and develops an Operational Governance policy which leverages the process so it is aligned with Strategic Governance, allowing the business to move forward in a positive manner."<br />
<br />
<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Lifecycle governance" href="http://www.checkpointpartners.com">Lifecycle governance</a> is the third area addressed by CheckPoint Partners. The creation of business capabilities is dependent on the end to end Service Lifecycle. "Most businesses find that these processes are disconnected when it comes to senior leadership. As a result, many are under the impression that IT isn&apos;t doing their job properly. Here at CheckPoint, our goal is to align a company&apos;s visions, people and goals as, by doing so, common issues are eliminated and the leadership team is aligned with all employees," Mr. Gorman goes on to say. "Once this occurs, a real discussion of business value and technical alignment can begin."<br />
<br />
The final stage of the process focuses on Technical Governance. "Companies often have no problem implementing technology software, but the challenge lies in getting the full competitive value from the technology. CheckPoint Partners comes in and defines areas where improvements can be made to better align all aspects of the business. When all parts of a business are aligned, the company sees an improved return on investment through effective and sustainable change," Mr. Gorman states.<br />

      <title>CheckPoint Partners Sets New Fixed Price Business Model for Governance</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>Quincy, MA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 12/11/2012 --  CheckPoint Partners, a leader in management consulting services, recently announced a new fixed price business model. This new way of doing business, says spokesperson Corey Gorman, effectively changes the game of high-priced firms like Accenture, KPMG, and EY Delloite.<br />
<br />
This change was a long time coming, according to Gorman. "Over the last decade, Checkpoint has been challenging the existing rules governing organizational effectiveness. We seek out quantum leaps in business process performance through maturity driven improvements, with our clients driving the pace through what we call Checkpoints. We are redefining how Governance is done. We have changed the game by getting the basics out of the way. And we have done it for companies you know."<br />
<br />
Gorman points to satisfied clients like CIO Bill Clark, who says, The Governance problem does not go away with a tool, it&apos;??s a core change to your people, processes and policies" According to Gorman, with the new price change, more companies will be able to take advantage of <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Strategic Governance" href="http://www.checkpointpartners.com/index.php/sprints/strategic-effectiveness">Strategic Governance</a>, something needed by any company executives who demand the very best performance from not only business-critical IT software solutions, but also from their organization.<br />
<br />
According to Gorman, The ROI Governance Model has generated over 900M in combined <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="IT Governance" href="http://www.checkpointpartners.com/">IT Governance</a> Effectiveness Savings across many Fortune 500 companies. "We make an impact on our clients&apos; businesses through attainable ROI. Our mission statement says "Achieve ROI through Governance". This means that our Governance Model has to work, it has to resolve the current challenges when we say it will, and it has to do what our clients need it to do. We bring a heritage, promising and delivering results?? of finishing the engagements we start, no matter how difficult or complex, on time and on budget."<br />
<br />
When asked how his company can truly do things differently, Gorman responded, "We set ourselves apart by hiring people who possess an innate hunger for resolving business problems. We nourish that hunger by providing them with challenging, important work. And, they stick around. We boast an employee retention rate significantly higher than the industry average. We distinguish ourselves from our competitors by never forgetting that our success is only possible through our clients&apos; success. This is a guiding principle why our present and former clients speak so highly of us, and continue to have success. Greater than half of our current business comes from clients we have worked with before. Such challenging work like <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Lifecycle Governance" href="http://www.checkpointpartners.com/index.php/sprints/fixed-price-lifecycle-effectiveness-report">Lifecycle Governance</a> requires the best talent available."<br />
