Why it matters

Many public and private sector organisations are under pressure to meet improvement and development targets, or deliver major change programmes to high standards. When an organisation decides to implement its business strategy it will often do so through a set of projects aimed at delivering a specific functionality or benefit. These projects must be co-ordinated to ensure that the aims of the strategy are delivered, desired benefits met and outcomes realised. Programme and project management is the discipline that provides this co-ordination.

Key challenges

Today's project and change management challenges include: Improving efficiency and effectiveness in response to targets and public sector reviews

• Improving and developing an organisation's programme and project management capability
  
• Disparities in the ability to deliver programmes & projects, and their expected benefits, successfully
  
• A failure to realise the anticipated benefits
