Kevin Curry
Chief Revenue Officer
Reed Group, a Guardian Company
“Working with Ceneé of 5280 PMO consistently delivers results that move the needle. At Reed Group, she not only supported the enterprise PMO, she drove it forward, leading complex software implementations, launching new products, and streamlining operations with measurable impact. She handled specialized client needs with precision and speed, consistently delivering tailored solutions.
During two major M&A transitions, Guardian Life’s acquisition of Reed Group and Reed Group’s acquisition of AON’s Leave Management business, Ceneé played a key role in aligning teams, integrating systems, and maintaining momentum, ensuring both transitions stayed on track.
She also led the full transition for a new building, overseeing planning, vendor coordination, and move-in logistics with clarity and accountability.”

“I was brought in to transform and build out key technology capabilities for a rapidly expanding Healthcare organization. 5280 was a strategic partner in that multi-year journey. They brought key portfolio management capabilities and valuable insight across a spectrum of technology functions. Whenever I had a resource or skills gap, 5280 PMO jumped in and provided insights and resources to keep us on track toward our Business and Technology goals. Their services were top-notch, and they always generated a high ROI.”

“5280 PMO built a highly effective team that managed development projects across multiple commercial products and technology initiatives. They played a critical role in rescuing major clients and led a year-long, multimillion-dollar acquisition project, integrating technology and service centers for a company three times our size. Mobilizing over 50 people, 5280 PMO completed the project on time, avoiding significant penalties and ensuring a smooth transition.”

“I worked under 5280 PMO’s leadership for over a year as we transformed an organization from a small local healthcare company to a global player in the industry. 5280 built and matured an enterprise PMO from the ground up, and to date, it is the single most effective ePMO I have worked with in 13 years of consulting.”
Dan Wolf
Guardian Life Insurance
“In my years of working with 5280 PMO, I was consistently impressed by their leadership and ownership on multi-million-dollar projects. Unlike other project managers, they understood the technical aspects critical to tracking progress and mitigating risk, which kept us on time and within budget. 5280 PMO took personal responsibility for each project’s success, providing value at every stage and ensuring that resources were efficiently managed. They added serious value and accountability throughout the project lifecycle.”
Internal Auditor
Financial Services Firm
“Before my current role in Internal Audit, I worked on many large-scale technology programs; few were as well planned, organized, or effectively managed as this transition of application ownership from the incumbent vendor. The effort reflected disciplined execution, strategic foresight, and strong leadership throughout.
Your guidance was a key driver of the team’s success, and I hope we continue to benefit from your expertise in the future. Well done, and thank you for setting such a high standard.”

“I had the opportunity to work closely with Tyler Lie during a period of significant technology and operating model transformation, and he was a key driver of progress throughout.
Tyler played a central role in large scale technology simplification efforts, supporting system rationalization, migration and outsourcing strategy, cost efficiency analysis, and the preparation of clear, decision ready materials for senior leadership and an executive steering committee.
He regularly led complex working sessions, developed core strategy and governance artifacts, and helped align diverse stakeholders on both direction and execution.”
