This publication provides a universally applicable project management method - the principles, processes and techniques that enable individuals and organizations to successfully
deliver their projects within time, cost and quality constraints.
Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2™ forms part of a pair of publications that are the result of the PRINCE2: 2009 Project to update the PRINCE2 guidance.
Its companion is Directing Successful Projects with PRINCE2™.
The title has been designed to be a role specific handbook for Project Managers, Team Managers and Project Support.
The new 2009 edition:
- Explains the principles that underpin PRINCE2
- Describes the PRINCE2 processes in their entirety
- Describes 'Key Themes' of project management, specific to PRINCE2, that are required for the processes to be effective
- Cross-references techniques that may be applied
- Explains how to tailor the method
- Provides context of when and how to use PRINCE2 for different project environments (e.g. standalone or as part of a program).
Like the 2005 guidance, the book contains chapters on Starting Up a Project, Directing a Project, Initiating a Project, Controlling a Stage, Managing Product Delivery, Managing Stage Boundary and Closing a Project.
