FAQ Answers

Questions about project leadership.

Which enterprise projects has Ivo Schönberner led?

With IT am Main, among others, the IT build-up of Discover Airlines from 2021 to 2026 with a prepared handover to the group IT of the Lufthansa Group, and the IT build-up for FraAlliance, the joint venture of Fraport and Lufthansa, in under four months.

What is special about IT projects in joint ventures?

Two or more shareholders bring their own IT standards, security rules and approval routes. Project leadership has to connect these worlds without violating any of them, and be able to evidence every decision to both sides.

Does Ivo Schönberner also take on carve-outs and carve-ins?

Yes. Separating a unit from a corporate group (carve-out) or integrating into a corporate group (carve-in) are situations in which Situational Awareness is particularly effective, because business and IT are in motion at the same time.

How does Ivo Schönberner report as project lead?

With evidence instead of status slides: decisions in the decision log, progress measured by verifiable results, risks with owners and dates.

Does Ivo Schönberner have experience in aviation?

Yes. Two of his largest engagements took place in the environment of the Lufthansa Group, including Discover Airlines with the network connection of the Operations Control Center and FraAlliance in Frankfurt.
