PROGRAMME GOVERNANCE: HOW IT ALL STARTED...

  • Programme governance emerged as a way of ensuring projects are delivered within the given time limits and cost, and that all necessary stakeholders are kept informed at regular intervals.
  • Projects and programs can be very challenging, having the controls in place and agreed by all relevant stakeholders can put them on the path to success.
  • We have been asked to save number of projects on the path to a failure, because governance structure and process has been not set from the start.

HOW CAN WE HELP...

  • Set the structure, processes, procedures, and methodology for the programme.
  • Develop policies, procedures, guidelines, and templates.
  • Determine relevant stakeholders and create a governance body.
  • Establish metrics and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to measure the effectiveness of programme.
  • Develop a detailed plan that addresses timelines, delivery cycles and milestones, deployment engagement, resources, responsibilities and decision making, risk management, communication strategy, activity log, change management control and QA strategy.
  • As we have experience with business analysis, legal principles, change management principles and orthodox programme governance, we can provide management, mentoring and monitoring on a much wider scope than the usual programme governance practices.
  • Develop and implement post-implementation monitoring process.
