6 PRINCE2 Themes Business Case: Why? Organization: Who? Quality: What? Plans: How? How much? When? Risk: What if? Change: What’s the impact? Progress: Where are we now? Where are we going? Should we cary on?

7 Business Case Executive is responsible Business justification Is (and remains) project: Desirable: cost/benefit/risk balance Viable: the project can deliver the products Achievable: the products can provide the benefits Develop: Starting Up (outline) and Initiating (detailed) Verify and maintain: with decision making Confirm: Benefits Review Plan Contents: reasons, options, expected (dis)benefits, timescale, costs, investment appraisal, major risks

10
10 Plans Three levels: Project Plan Stage Plans (and Exception Plans) Team Plans Approach to plans: Design the plan Define and analyze the products: (write the project product description) Create the product breakdown structure Write the product descriptions Create the product flow diagram Identify activities and dependencies Prepare estimates Prepare the schedule Analyze the risks Document the plan
11
11 Risk Threat / opportunity to objectives Identify: Context Risks: cause, event, effect Assess Estimate: probability, impact, proximity Evaluate Plan Threat: Avoid, Reduce, Fallback, Transfer, Share, Accept Opportunity: Exploit, Enhance, Share, Reject Implement Risk owner / actionee Communicate
