1. An architectural program refers to the broader objectives and client requirements of a project. It is a written document used alongside a functional brief. 2. A project is unique and time-bound, while a program is ongoing and implemented within an organization to consistently achieve certain business results. 3. The document discusses the difference between project and program management in the context of designing facilities for a knowledge community like a university.

1. ARCHITECTURAL PROGRAM for
KNOWLEDGE community - prof. R.Karunakaran
Architecture
brings together the
arts, sciences, technology and environmental awareness.
The profession of architecture
encompasses everything that influences the way in which the
built environment is
planned, designed, made, used, and maintained.

2. ARCHITECTURAL PROGRAM for
KNOWLEDGE communities.
Architectural program
Refers to the broader objectives of a project and
requirements of the client.
written document, used in conjunction with
FUNCTIONAL brief''
PROGRAM Management
A PROJECT is unique and is of definite duration. A PROGRAM is
ongoing and implemented within a business to consistently achieve
certain results for the business.

3. ARCHITECTURAL PROGRAM for
KNOWLEDGE communities.
KNOWLEDGE COMMUNITY
Refers to a particular type of a facility like an
University or a college.
With a large campus like BS.Abdur rahman univesity
With mixed development incl.
hostels, housing ,
social facilities like prayer hall, health clinic , food court etc.

4. ARCHITECTURAL PROGRAM for
KNOWLEDGE communities.
PROJECT PLAN
formulated in collaboration between
owners, users, customers,
facility experts,
builders/contractors
and
Architects, engineers & designers

5. ARCHITECTURAL PROGRAM for
KNOWLEDGE communities.
PROJECT REPORT
reappraised by various stake holders of a project like
consultants, managers on
STRATEGY & BUSINESS planning ,
MARKET STUDY & FINANCIAL reporting,
HR & TECHNOLOGY
BUDGETING – quality , time & cost

6. ARCHITECTURAL PROGRAM for
KNOWLEDGE communities.
1. A project is designed to deliver an output or deliverable and its success will be
in terms of delivering the right output at the right time and to the right cost.
2. Program management includes management of projects which, together, improve
the performance of the organization. A program's success will be measured in
terms of benefits.
3. Benefits are the measures of improvement of an organization and might include
increased income, increased profits, decreased costs, reduced wastage or
environmental damage, more satisfied customers.
4. Improvement of processes is a continuous operation that very much
contrasts a program from a project.
5. There will normally be a process to change the predetermined scope of a project.
Programs often have to react to changes in strategy and organization.
