HPS is an Oracle Primavera Gold Partner specialising in Portfolio Management. The company was formed in 2007 and works across the EMEA region. 2015 was an expansive year for HPS, with a similar growth curve already looking likely for 2016.

In 2014 and 2015, we invested heavily in people and training in Project Portfolio Management, including consultants, analysts, and sales, which has driven significant growth. Over the past year, we have also been developing skills in P6, successfully delivering two substantial projects, and see PCF as an opportunity to acquire further skills, knowledge and market track record in this solution, which we can promote to our existing customer base.

The Oracle roadmap for the development of Primavera Prime would suggest that Primavera partners will need to have good in-house skills across all aspects of Project Portfolio Management if they are to be able to respond to Oracle's demands of its partners - i.e. being able to deliver in business analysis and consulting, portfolio management, project planning and scheduling, cost control, risk analysis, etc. Our skills at the strategic front end, will match well with PCF's equally adept skills in the project management area, giving us a more integrated market offering.
