Programme Management Process
Our approach to programme management uses a 'Programme Lifecycle' that as well as acting as a guide for clients;
provides a clear, concise and consistent basis for the delivery of programme management services.
The ‘Programme Lifecycle’ comprises 5 phases and each phase is focused on establishing a firm foundation on which to
proceed onto the next; i.e. ensure that the objectives of the endeavour are clearly defined before exploring possible
options/solutions.
Each of these phases has key inputs and outputs and associated deliverables, and the approach provides the following
overall benefits:
• Aligning outcomes with strategic business goals.
• Reducing complexity and bringing clarity of purpose.
• Gaining buy-in from key stakeholders from the outset.
• Providing a flexible framework that is able to respond to the changing business environment.
• Providing senior executives with confidence that initiatives are being effectively managed and governed.
Our goal is an efficiently and easily understood structured programme or portfolio of various projects that have clearly
defined objectives and boundaries that together support achievement of the desired business goals and benefits.

support the delivery of the projected business benefits.
