Project: ERP procurement assistance
We had not been through the MBIE RFX process before and needed someone with experience to assist us on this journey and at the same time upskill our team.
We engaged the Integral Group to take us on our RFX journey. The effect was amazing. The objectives we set for this engagement were exceeded on all accounts, both Frank and Bridget were fantastic.
Their approach was logical and based on many years of deep experience. I would absolutely recommend using them and would not hesitate to work with them again.
Very good overall

Looking forward to the next workshop or project to build on this new knowledge. Thanks.

Brilliant. Really enjoyed.
Found it super helpful. Case studies were great.
Found a lot of it useful but still have a few "yes but" chickens!
I still need to understand how to write an appropriate policy and strategy - next time maybe. But the whole process of delivering a project using that process will help me understand what I need to do and what others need to do. I might be the "teacher"

Excellent
Frank created an easy, friendly environment where all suggestions/ideas were considered and everyone was able to participate. All sessions flowed nicely and each built on what we had learned in the previous sessions. Constant recapping meant all that was learnt will stick much easier.

It was fun and fully enjoyable with the large amount of interaction.
The use of charts and sticky notes has shown me that there are better ways to illustrate and think about ideas instead of typing on the computer etc.
Good place but got lost at times
Food was good, ha ha!
I thought it was really good. To me it felt like it's more a course about how to be a good person. Which I think is good because a lot is missing. It added a lot of value to me but I wouldn't see it as a core project management course.
Super fun, especially with all the activities we did. Grouping different workmates with different knowledge.
Great introduction to project management for someone with no prior experience.
Great content, good presentation, clear and concise
Perhaps just a little more group activity would have been good. Excellent content and presentation
Frank was great! Informative and used several real life examples.

Excellent facilitator and course. Very practical. Fun.
Frank clearly knows and is passionate about the topic matter! This helps bring a great mood to the workshop and makes it easier to learn.

Great tools and stories of experiences. Good group exercise. Would be better in a smaller group to encourage more depth of discussion.
Very well run course with excellent trainer. Content is very relevant and delivered in an engaging and up to date way.
Very engaging and interesting workshop. A lovely and valuable refresger/ revisit of skills oftene forgotten and hurried through. Appreciate the hand s on aproach. Hope to use thse skills moving forward (wish I had this last year at this time)
Good first step and would be good to have a longer workshop.
Frank has a great personality. Expectation of the course was exceeded. Thoroughly enjoyable and useful.
The post-it notes made it fun, but informative, and being visual the ideas became real, and you worked with other councils.
All concepts and ideas described with examples so I could imagine how they could be applied to what I do.
It's probably one of the most useful and practical training I've ever been on and I've done a lot

Thanks Frank and Kerry. Super engaging and practical course with heaps of good practical tips to implement.
The workshop was awesome so much shown. My suggestion (and don't have to follow it) is with the different acronyms, principles and paradigms, could we do something activitiy wise so we're able to connect e.g DOSAC activities, Personally as someone whos a hands on learner will connect more.
Short, focused, practical, helpful.
Great presentation.
Really good, learnt heaps.
Great content presented amazingly, Frank and awesome support from Debbie

Lots of chocolate provided. I have learnt a lot of the process of planning a project. Visuals aids make it easier to see and track where things are at. Interactive groups were nice, small teams make it easer to talk.
Wonderful training (with full of energy) not another dull one?.
There should be more exercises to practice.
Good motivational speaking
Really enjoyed material, gave me a few more tools to implement and get project moving more smoothly.

I think the workshop fronted a useful overview for those who aren't experience in the procurement process. Would have been useful to have the organisational templates available (RFP)
Course and delivery are really good. NB: Having already been on a course run by Frank my expectations were high - didn't disappoint, hence rating above met my expectations.
Exactly what I have been looking for in a project management course - LG focussed, relatable, ready-to-use tools, real life examples.

Having attended the Contract Management course prior, I found I enjoyed this course a lot more - as this time around the tools/learnings were not comletely new. I feel more confident in my ability to now apply these tools and am certain they will help me to successfully run projects.
Great job
Great couple of days thanks!
Great delivery
Some good tools and advice to use in here.
Fun, really interesting content.
I am happy that I attended this training. It clears my thinking about project management.
Very interactive
Well-run and executed - concepts were well-explained with real-life examples.
Very relevant - authentic. Nice flow - helpful.
A very practical session highlighting useful tools to manage a project successfully. Good engagement by using "scenarios" and actually putting tools (DOSAC, Right Track etc) into action.
Very valuable and practical course, immediately applicable. Anecdotes were colourful but also directly relevant.
Was fun
Heaps of tools that I can use that are relevant to my work.
Well presented; lots of chocolate; lots of tools to take away; for someone of little PM experience was great insight; interactive.
An enjoyable interactive workshop that gets you to think about the issues and options in a segmented way.
Very practical and lots of hands-on stuff to do
There was a lot of information that was very valuable but a small amount of time for delivery and intake.
Taking away a number of very useful tools. Difficult in that with internal parks staff in not procuring services - more plant/materials. But do see how much of content can be adapted to suit/be used for this
Very good!
Great sessions. Upbeat and full of great advice and knowledge
Got me thinking about the planning and the process
Excellent and informative
Really good course. Project management was fairly foreign to me even though I'm tasked with this in my day to day job. Heaps of useful techniques, could be great to have a follow-up to how I'm applying this.
Very satisfied with the workshop, it will really help with my project management.
Awesome engagement, structured, informative, relevant, relateable.
Very broad course covering participants with little to higher understanding. I would have benefitted from a more advanced session.
Two days much better than 1 day course. Very relevant this time round due to my role changes.
The presenter is very entertaining.
Challenging, revealing, delightful. Good to get some common understanding across teams.
Brilliant, very useful tips. Lots of fun
Very good content and appreciate the tools and resources to take home to support our learning.
Really engaging
Good use of the two days. Content well presented and relevant

Good solid foundation of project management. A few parts seemed a bit ouf of place/not flowing, e.g. stress/bully. Can't actually think of much wrong so upgraded to 5!
Enjoyed the process- by day 2 it was starting to make sense.
Very good workshop - learned a lot, thank you
Thought provoking and reinforced the useful tools.
Having too much fun
A fair amount of the course was directed towards the processes I don't use. It was good to get some background but I feel some of the very good ideas need to be adopted by the organisation as a whole
Really enjoyable, valuable course. Love the prolific use of post-it notes. Thanks for the great tools, I can already see how to apply for my next project.
Brilliant.
Very engaging and entertaining
Was pitched a little too low. Needed more depth
Great course, not overly prescriptive. Lots of useful tools to apply to bespoke project management projects.
It was fun and simple.

I came due to a gap in knowledge in contract management. I felt that we spent too much time on project and procurement management and then rushed through the post contract award sections. However, the project & procurement management info was great and I did learn some new tools.
Useful tools, simple language and user friendly and easy to transfer to practise.
Very engaging.
Ka pai!

Got a lot out of it; more tools for the toolbox.
Really fantastic, thank you for letting me come. I learned a lot and really enjoyed it! Didn't fall asleep once!
Very interesting and enjoyable
The use of real life contracts/procurement situations is very helpful and makes the learning more real.
A good morning

Good content, relevant. Well presented. Can be used in other areas of council not just project management

Was the best thing that could have happened in the first weeks of a new project.
Great content over 2 day; went quick. Thought it would be a bore, was not.
Very satisfied, just felt that at time more depth could have been given.
This was an excellent course and I got a lot out of it. I can apply the learnings to the projects I am about to get involved with and I have good tools (proven successful) that I can use.
I wanted to learn new ideas - I have lots! I have been challenged and I have had FUN.
Good presentation and content
Good overview, excellent tips, actions to work on

Very valuable training.

Enthusiastic and exceptionally knowledgeable.
Fun, engaging workshop. I was expecting some fairly dry theory but have had a great 2 days - thanks!
Kept us all focussed both days!

The detailed heavy procurement stuff was over my head as never been exposed to it and unlikely to be involved in future.
Very practical and inclusive. I can apply some principles to my day to day work even though I am not a project manager - so huge win for me.
Really enjoyable, with practical processes and real life examples - dynamic presentation.
Excellent information and presenter. Helpful templates and simple ways to approach problems.
Loved the facilitation and content. Immediate value add!
Was good. Good examples aused and humour. Day 2 was longer and taxing. Was good to understand the reason/theory behind procurement and best practise ways.
Great course, I have minimal experience with project planning but have a solid understanding after this course
Very enjoyable. I came with an "I don't have time" attitude, but was easily able to change that due to the delivery style and content.
Engaging - kept things moving nicely! Lots of breaks from sitting down etc
Very helpful.
Absolutely taking in the information to help with structure.
Really surprised that I enjoyed it as much as I did. Some things I won't use and I just need to take away from the course relevant ones. In saying that, I have a better understanding now around procurement.
Fun, great content. Great workshop, thanks for using mine as one of the examples.
Excellent, easy to follow steps for great project management that doesn't need to take that long.
Really good overview of what tools to help make for a less stressful process.

Getting all onto a common framework and understanding 'why', was the key objective which you and the team nailed. Thank you.
Use of examples made content easy to understand and see how it applies directly
Really good presentation of PM strategies with practical applications and examples given.
Decision making is limited to upper levels therefore need to get ELT to take part in project planning but difficult to get time commitment.
I feel like I got a lot of practical lessons that are easily transferable to a wide range of situations.
Some good background, evidence this works and key tools to improve procurement and contracts.
Great takeaways. Knowledgeable and credible.
As always, very engaging and informative session.
More from the course was relevant for me than I thought might be.
Good although quite long.
We had fun. We achieved our objectives. Lots of stuff to incorporate into our work.
I felt stretched (which is good).

Really enjoyable and interactive and practical
Great clear summarised concepts
Very good, lots to take in and put to practise.
Good course, great presenter.
Wicked. Great delivery and prep.
I'm very new to contract management so a lot to take in with limited base to be building from. Would be good to return to course in 1-2 years.
Day 1 - 3 star; Day 2 - 4.5 star - for me.
Great refresher for me
2 days spent to save many hours of planning in the future - time well spent.
Found the subject matter really useful and applicable - I will be taking this stuff back to my job!
Great energy. Great content. Practical skills to implement fast.
Had relatively low expectations as to how useful this would be, but got some generic learnings that I can apply elsewhere. And although I don't do lots of contract management, it's a useful complement to procurement training and to understand the issues.
Well presented with good ideas to take away
Overall good crash course into procurement. Very helpful having previously run through it with Frank with the Pahiatua Main St designer procurement.
Thank you for a fun, informative training session. Two days is about the right length.
Enjoyed the recap and bringing of the WDC on the course
Day 1 = been there done that. Great content but could have been done in half day. Day 2 - great content, bit rushed.
Current and immediately applicable. Changed my perspective!
Pre-training comms poor.
Excellent facilitator, experience and knoweldge
Well presented - thanks.
Lots of good tools, especially DOSAC and the one pager.
Great content, practical and easy to put to use.
Facilitated well, interactive and fun. Kept the room awake and alert

A lot to take in, but there are some good practical tools I can use straight away.
Fantastic engagement.
Awesome frameworks and timing is really good for our EMO project. Frank was engaging, level of participation/hands on great.

Good tools, good facilitator, had fun!
A very entertaining and engaging two day session with Frank - who is a good facilitator. I learnt a lot which I can apply to my life.
This really consolidated my earning from the business case training and gave me some understanding of overall project management.
Great interactive analysis of case studies.
Really great couple of days. Very professional and thought out. Great flow and clear learning objectives.
After Day 1, I was utterly and completely lost - for a variety of reasons - But Day 2 has been much better . Some participants would need 5 days to take in content (I needed more than 2 days)
Easy to use tools for project management and day to day.
Really thorough project management overview with many tools to use in real life situations
Very interactive and well-structured.
Dynamic, fun, interactive. A bit more context for concepts would be good but I guess it was the purpose of the first part of the workshop.
Good content, fun and heaps learned.
Learnt a lot of new skills/tools and felt like I achieved my objectives for the workshop.
Really, really great course. I've learnt a lot as a project manager.
I have no PM experience so in a couple of areas I struggled to understand. Otherwise was an amazing workshop.
Wide commentary bit hard to dig down deep.
Fantastic opportunity to drill down on how to tender.
A good refresher with simple but effective tools/techniques.
Because people could self-select for this workshop everyone deals with quite different levels of projects - meaning some people were more engaged/less engaged for certain sections that were relevant to them.
It was fun; fast-paced; lots of different takeaways.
Great course.
Great trainer, great examples.
Great, really enjoyed it.
Informative, good tools suggested and demonstrated over and over to encourage memory (while being entertaining and angaging)
For myself who would use these skills on small projects within my own team some concepts went over my head. Although I like how it relates back to council. Simpler terms would have made it easier to sink in.
Excellent workshop - learnt loads and had fun in the process.
Some relevant information for construction industry. Some tailored more for government departments.
Lots of useful tools.
Really useful hands on ideas, suggestions. Collaborative learning was great.
The tools that were given to us during the training were helpful and will start to use them.
Perfect.
Engaging, content was very accessible.
Kept me engaged.
Loved the real life examples
I knew very little about procurement before this workshop. I know a bit more now and know where to go to find help when I need it.
I found the overall day interesting. I will never look at charts and post-it notes the same again.
Thank you - nga mihi. Kia Koe Frank (and to Ange!).
Powerful and compelling
Quite high level approach
Great, practical tools.
Course was relative and delivered in a way that we were engaged.
A fabulous interactive day
Exciting to be introduced to a more collaborative and positive way of engaging with and selecting suppliers/contractors.

Very well delivered course.
Good positive energy. We had fun!
Great to have real world examples
Enjoyed the interactiveness.
Engaging, interesting and educational.
Very good content and speed. Great delivery and real examples.
Relevant to my role and contracts, but may have not been as relevant for communities and facilities staff.
Great workshop (keep in swim lane)
Not having participated in any other workshops, project management etc I found these aspects beneficial to the overal procurement framework.
Course was very relevant to my work
Great workshop - excellent facilitation skills!
Excellent, was kept engaged at all times.
Too short! But good advice, tips
Gave me a good understanding of good procurement processes.
My expectation were different coming into this of what project management would entail. Learned some useful thing I can use
All good, awesome, informative
Thanks, felt like I have some practical skills to take home. Nice to do with our team, so more people in organisation with these skills.
Enjoyed. Great course, look forward to demonstrating to the team.
Lots of content to take in and very understandable.
Didn?t realise how effective and appropriate this would be
Understood some of the fundamental processes from P.M. workshop so was a bit repetitive. Would have appreciated more time on our policy and tools for PM and developing contracts (this is where we get screwed up).
Well delivered, good examples. Not too content heavy!
Really great course.
Really great. Learnt heaps and looking forward to implementing into my daily work routine.
Really positive experience
Engaging but not all relevant in my job.
Some double up but understandable, useful doing case studies
Excellent material, was a lot there however once we do the procurement process will then find this helpful.
Interaction as teams, the lollies!!
A very well thought out course which has provided some useful enabling tools.
Good general project management training. Widely varying levels of experience within group.
Enjoyable time. Refreshing way to return to work instead of the usual emails and bullshit.
As a beginner in this area, valuable to come up with some tools to use that are not complex. (Note at times did move into space where discussing things at a higher level not relevant to starter.)
Good mix of discussion, workshop, slides, standing up.
Great course and awesome delivery
All good.
Thank you.

I have not been in a Project Management role so it was all new, but fascinating. The things/concepts you taught can be used in many areas/roles.

Good workshop, it was great getting another perspective than the government-centric view
somewhat confused at start then it came together as it progressed
The workshop was creative and engaging! Course material was clear and gets to the point. The mix of real world council project examples was good and gave an idea of how to approach any project.
Great course, really enjoyed it. Thank you.
I'm moving back into procurement, but it's been an age. For me, I'd get more value from this course 6-12 months into my role when I have tangible examples to relate back to
The course was very useful at KDC. I hope staff recognizes and appreciate the importance of project management
Excellently presented. Lots of visual information techniques.
Great facilitator, great relevant content, enjoyable and interactive.
Little custard, great energy and information
Gained some new tools and have some things to think about when doing negotiations

Loved it, need it, got it because we need to implement it.

Really interesting. A lot of information that I'll need time to assimilate. Love that I will have some new templates.

This is an interesting human relations in project management course.

Sharper and more refined than 2010 version
Thoroughly enjoyed your "witty" quips and relaxed training style, layered over your knowledge of the subject matter. Thanks for including me too. I turned up yesterday to support Toni, but does make sense to be involved.

Really good, energetic workshop with some simple, effective tools to manage projects for great outcomes.

Fun, informative and engaging which I love. Thank you so much.
Very relatable, enjoyed Frank's personal examples.
Enjoyable, good mix of interactive sessions and 'workbook' sessions. Good examples.

Good pace, relevant examples, engaging presenter.
Loved the workshop, incredibly informative and gave me plenty to think about for my project.
Got through a good deal and was well presented.
Lots of information to take in over a short period of time, but lots of amazing stuff.

Great tools and real life examples. Worked on our own project
You were a lone presenter last time - this time I felt I was even more supported because I had one of your experts walking me through the steps. This meant no wasted time trying to figure things out on my own. The day is too short for wasted time.
Really great course. Frank is an excellent facilitator and very well supported by Bridget.
Pretty quick - will need practise.
Good update - fast review which was great.
Very informative but in a fun way
You are a great and entertaining presenter.
Dynamic and interesting
Great training. Lots of life learning lessons.
Good presentation and engagement
Coming to do a course like this, you always consider the possibility that it is going to be a waste of time? or boring!! This course was neither of these. Having never done PM before, I now feel like I could run a project with ease.
Excellent
Really enjoyed it. I have done a one day project management course before and got nothing out of it, so I was hesitant this time! Also I struggle to stay focussed for long periods of time but didn?t struggle here!
Very good, prepared and practical workshop.
I loved all the workshop and learned a number of useful techniques and principles with drawing a point because: the exercise in real negotiation felt rushed and because there was no time to prepare properly it left me feeling totally useless
Interactive, diverse range of participants
Very well presented and clear guides/templates. Size was excellent. Have attended large 20ppl vs 6 ppl - smaller better.
Enjoyable and productive.
Very good training simple, smart and effective. Value for money. Excellent services and great communciation from Kerry, Frank, and Angela
Frank kept class on track and used examples of projects.
Great interactive workshop.
Very informative and engaging. Helped solidify prior procurement learnings.
Well delivered, well explained. Was not too sure what to expect.
Very well presented, not a dull moment.
Awesome - I have learnt many tools to take away with me. Huge learnings from this workshop
Awesome
A little confusing with the multiple styles however helpful as a 2 day course to learn a variety of PM tools and templates
Great workshop filled with common sense, tried and tru scenarios
Very good workshop, well presented
Excellent course. After lunch perhaps you could do an exercise where you have to get on your feet - felt my eyes drooping
Interactive, practical, simple tools
Good workshop
Great material and presentation
Excellent presenter
An excellent course, well structure and easy to follow throughout
I really enjoyed how interactive the workshop was

Really well facilitated.

Very practical, useful workshop delivering relevant tools that will help me deliver better
Frank is a great instructor and has simple ways of explaining complex stuff.
Exceeded expectations; was expecting that would focus heavily on PM process and impressed with big picture focus and tools that could be applied in many areas of life.
Great interactive workshop. Whole new appreciation of post it notes
Very well conducted in a fun way
Practical, easy tools. Easy to implement at any level, and both at work and at home!
One of the most engaging and valuable courses I have attended.
Good presentation
Engaging workshop
Explained some of the fundamental elements of setting up projects for success. Tools were explained with examples and exercises.
Learnt a lot more than I expected - and application to every day working life. Not only negotiating contracts.
Frank is good to listen to as he is clearly passionate about the subject matter and presents in a clear and concise manner.
Very good workshop.
Some bits I might struggle to apply in a real-world situation - problem solving is usually more immediate than taking a full-team consultation approach. Look forward to using some of these principles when managing discrete projects.
Great presentation.
Very informative and knoweldgeable
First time doing - learnt a lot.
Very good course with practical tools.
A lot of information to take in, in just 2 days.
Well-presented, with good information I can use as I progress in my cadetship.
Great use of flipcharts. Very visual.
Superb range of content covered in a really engaging way. Some of the best and most relevant training I've attended.
Insightful and engaging
This workshop was great in clarifying the tools of negotiation. I will definitely be implementing the scrumboard and the DOSAC.
Really useful tips on how to work more efficiently and effectively. Great tools on how to manage and track projects (i.e. everyday work).
Workshop was thorough. Frank was clear and easy to understand. Made it fun!
Very useful and helpful tools
Good fun, good collaborative teaching techniques! Helpful problem solving methods, good snacks.
Great real life content
Interesting, and great delivery style.
Very informative and enlightening.
Fantastic skills, simple to follow and use.
Well delivered and heaps of information and practical ideas
Good info and will give me lots to go on. Plan, plan, plan.
Tools emailed are very helpful, i.e. project plan, documents and spreadsheets.
A fantastic 2 days.
Really helpful and I have learnt some great skills and tools. Super helpful workshop!
Workshop was presented amazing and understood clearly
Wasn't sure how this would work with my role, but I was able to learn practical strategies, especially with the wider team functions.
As someone whoe knew nothing about project management, the first day was a challenge and it was not until I did the practical PM plan that I understood the content. Day 2 was good to consolidate and learn from others' PM plans.
I will email in more comments. This course was fantastic!
Great information.
Clear, concise, presented in a fun way
Great workshop. Very interactive and easy to keep up with.
I was at a slight disadvantage on Day 1 as I hadn't been on the first (half day) course. Would have been useful as I did not understand some of the discussion on the morning of Day 1.
It was engaging, interesting and dynamic. Lots of fun.
Great, informative workshop. Good practical examples.
Great facilitation
Mix of listening and active participation
Relevant examples
Great course. Heaps of content. Great teacher.
Good information.
Helpful and engaging
I really enjoyed this workshop. It was engaging and really hands on. I was able to apply it to our mahi and seriously feel lighter knowing that the templates will arrive and help.
Thoroughly enjoyed today. Great engagement, facilitation and loved the real-life scenarios. Thank you!
Really enjoyed the course. Feel like I now have the tools to take on a project.
Very good course with lots of great content and ideas.
Very useful information
Fun workshop, clear and relevant, facilitator who made the learnings relateable.
Excellent, thank you for the new skills.
Brilliant. There was a lot to absorb so I will be viewing website link. Is also advantageous to have other staff atttending from same organisation.
I didn't get a breakdown of what this was about so didn't really know what to expect. I'm sure the full day is fantastic.
Very good - enjoyed it in all aspects
Bloody good. I was excited about this given my big negotiation with NZTA on the Haul Road.
It was good to have done the short course prior to this one.
Great set of tips and tricks that can be easily adopted in every day situations.
More time to cover aspects further to not feel rushed
Overall super engaging and interesting course. Great balance between learning and activities.
Great. Informative.
Thank you for the opportunity. Your workshop was inspiring. I was really impressed with your delivery and you kept us engaged.
Learned some good skills.
Excellent facilitation.
Really helpful session. Great range of tools to use. Would be great to extend to other staff in the organisation. Good techniques for fast processes, speeding up complicated things.
Very engaging. Everyone was involved
Enjoyed the real stories used to cement the theory. Good content, well-covered. Great combo of PPT and hard copies. Obviously well-trialled presentation that works well - thank you!
Upbeat, positive and informative.
Comprehensive coverage on all the things I wanted to know.
I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this workshop. It was simple techniques which can be applied in my role and therefore of value to me. Enjoyable.
More time
Well facilitated; with a good focus on learnings.
Very useful course. Found the real world examples/ implications/discussions helpful and engaging.
Entertaining stories and useful tools
Real examples very helpful.
Does not really fit with my position but I did learn a lot that I will try to fit in
Really enjoyable, learnt a bunch of different techniques.
Good engagement.
Good course, Frank is a very engaging trainer and made it interesting. For me it was more of a refresher but I think it was really useful for my manager to hear key messages, as I was surprised by the lack of project management since joining NCC 3 months ago.
I have really enjoyed this. I've felt confidence in that my gut instincts have been right.
Good 2 days training and learning some new tools and how my own experience may align to a council setting.
Great knowledge sharing and theory with practical examples.
Fun
Very good, informative.
Very relevant and engaging.
Some sessions a bit theory-heavy without time to discuss. More time for questions would be useful. Time to consider non-cmmercial negotiation scenarios.
Great use of real life examples/applications.
Good systems and tools. Good pace - didn't get bored or distracted
Thanks
Engaging and relevant
Very comprehensive and well-developed workshop. Highly recommended!
