Project and programme management (PPM)

Today’s businesses often need to implement change faster than traditional project management methodologies can accommodate – and agile project management provides the solution.

To stay effective, businesses need to be able to change quickly. However, the core focus of traditional project management methodologies is to thoroughly understand the reasons for change before the change can be enabled; in the real world, this approach can be far too time-consuming.

'Agile project management' provides organisations with a leaner, more structured approach to project management. It enables them to respond far more quickly to change and provides a way to implement high-priority initiatives.

What is agile project management?

Agile project management is a set of frameworks that covers the people, products and practices (techniques) required to successfully implement projects. Agile is not only suitable for software/systems development - it can also be used to help manage any form of business change.

Agile frameworks concentrate on:

Putting the greatest business benefit first

Prioritising change around business benefits
Prioritising the implementation of change within releases
Regular reviews of prioritisation and re-planning

Good communications

Ensuring that all of the correct stakeholders are identified, involved and informed throughout the project's lifecycle
Regular planned reviews of work with stakeholders at the appropriate organisational levels
Facilitated workshops to gain consensus decisions from stakeholders
Daily communications between the change team and business representatives

Trusted teams

Self-directed and empowered teams of change and business personnel
Project managers facilitate the teams and do not direct them
Fixed timescales and resource budgets
Software development techniques that significantly reduce errors
