MSP Overview

Organisations are striving to achieve benefits from improving existing practices, to achieve business excellence, to be better prepared for the future, to enable innovation and to encourage new ways of thinking about doing business.

Where there is major change there will be complexity and risk. There will be many inter-dependencies and conflicting priorities to resolve. Programme Management provides a framework for managing this challenging environment.

Programme Management, like project management, is a management tool for bringing together people, activities and information to achieve something. Programme Management is a way of approaching the setting up and running of a programme. So, what is a programme? A programme is made up of a specific set of projects identified by an organisation that together will deliver some defined objective, or set of objectives, for the organisation. The objectives, or goals, of the programme are typically at a strategic level such that the organisation can achieve benefits and improvements in its business operation.

There is a close link between Programme Management and project management because the programme is made up of projects and can only succeed if the projects within it succeed. The concept of a programme is that it should be more than the ‘sum of its parts’. In other words, without Programme Management, the projects would probably still be able to deliver their particular outcomes but these would not be co-ordinated or integrated into the achievement of a strategic goal.

The Principles in Managing Successful Programmes Advise

• manage a business case for the programme
• organise people to ensure responsibilities and lines of communication are clear
• plan the work in a way which achieves results
• ensure that the organisation does benefit from undertaking the programme
• ensure that all interested parties (the stakeholders) are involved
• resolve issues which arise
• identify and manage risks
• ensure quality
• keep up to date information which tracks the continually changing environment
• audit a programme to ensure standards are being followed

The Processes in Managing Successful Programmes Describtion

• identify the aim of the programme and envisaged benefits to the organisation
• define the programme, and specify how the organisation will be different afterwards
• define and implement the governance requirements for the programme
• monitor and coordinate the projects within a programme to a successful conclusion
• manage the transition between the ‘old’ and ‘new’ ways of working, ensuring benefit
• close the programme and ensure the ‘end goal’ has been achieved

(M_o_R)® Overview

Introduction

A certain amount of risk-taking is inevitable if your organisation is to achieve its objectives. Effective management of risk helps you to improve performance by contributing to:

• Better service delivery
• Reduction in management time spent fire-fighting
• Increased likelihood of change initiatives being achieved
• More focus internally on doing the right things properly
• Better basis for stragegy setting
• Achievement of competitive advantage
• Fewer sudden shocks and unwelcome surprises
• More efficient use of resources
• Reduced waste and fraud, and better value for money
• Improved innovation
• Better management of contingent and maintenance activities.

Scope of M_o_R

The framework of M_o_R (Management o Riak) is based on four concepts:

• M_o_R principles, essential for the development of good risk management practice.
• M_o_R approach to be adapted to suit each individual organisation.
• M_o_R processes to ensure that risks are identified, assessed and controlled.
• Embedding and reviewing M_o_R to ensure that the principles, approach and processes are applied across the organisation and that their application undergoes continual improvement.
• M_o_R is now regulated so that service providers, user organisations and individuals can be accredited against standards in process and knowledge and regulated through examinations and audits

AgilePM® Overview

What is AgilePM®?

More organisations and project professionals than ever are embracing Agile tools and frameworks as they aim to increase the success of – and return on investment from – projects and other change initiatives.

Despite originating in the software development arena, Agile methods and frameworks are becoming increasingly popular in a wide variety of industries and projects as the benefits over more traditional frameworks and methodologies are realised.

Key benefits often attributed to Agile include:

• Improved revenue and speed to market: The Agile philosophy supports the notion of early and regular releases, enabling benefits to be realised early as the solution continues to develop.
• The right product/solution: traditional approaches typically require detailed specifications during the start-up phase. Agile, in contrast, advocates a high-level plan at the start of the project whilst encouraging change and flexibility though incremental development cycles, helping to ensure that what’s delivered at the end of the project is current, fit for purpose and satisfies the client/business.
• Increased collaboration and customer satisfaction: the continuous involvement of a user representative and/or product owner, high visibility of the solution and progress, and the flexibility to change when change is needed, create much better business engagement and customer satisfaction.

In partnership with the Agile Business Consortium (formerly DSDM Consortium), APMG developed AgilePM – a training and certification scheme underpinned by the AgilePM Handbook, a project manager’s subset of the Consortium’s Agile Project Framework.

The AgilePM guidance offers a practical and repeatable methodology that achieves an ideal balance between the standards, rigour and visibility required for good project management, and the fast-pace, change and empowerment provided by Agile. It’s based on the Consortium’s eight principles for effective Agile project delivery.

  Benefits of AgilePM®

• Enable change faster, at lower cost and with lower risk, by continually validating project milestones against objectives and developing solutions incrementally.
• Improve time-to-market and project success rates by encouraging stakeholder involvement, feedback and effective controls.
• Empower project personnel and encourage increased collaboration and ownership.
• Based on the Agile Business Consortium’s Agile Project Framework (established for over 20 years and regularly refreshed).

What does AgilePM® include?

AgilePM® brings together all the elements of a project in an agile content:

• Principles (the behaviours);
• People (roles and responsibilities);
• Process (the life cycle);
• Products (what is produced and when); and
• Practices (timeboxing, modelling, iterative development, prioritization and facilitated workshops).

What qualification levels are there?

AgilePM® has two accredited certifications:

• Foundation level – a 2 day course with examination at the end of the second day
• Practitioner level – a further 2 day course (4 days in total) with an examination at the end of the fourth day.
• Both qualifications are internationally recognised
• Over 65,000 exams sat since 2011
