Software Tools and Infrastructure

Having the right tools and infrastructure significantly improves the chances of an effective Programme and Project Management Environment being sustained. Some might argue that for larger organisations the necessary consistency and control is not possible without significant automation of programme and/or project processes and communication mechanisms. Nevertheless, tools in particular need to be selected and applied with focus and discipline so that they truly enable programmes and/or project processes (rather than forcing the use of practices inconsistent with the Programme and Project Management Environment).

In the diagram below it is significant that ‘software tools and infrastructure’ is shown at the bottom, with a supporting role in relation to ‘people /organisation’ and ‘processes’.

It would be a mistake to try to build the Programme and Project Management Environment by starting with the selection of a set of software tools. Only when the required programme and project processes are in place, being performed by people with the right attitudes and behaviours, are the conditions right for tools to be introduced in a disciplined way to support what you are trying to achieve.

i-method from Interactive Methodologies Ltd is the most complete tool for governing projects with PRINCE2™.

The Business Case for i-method

Central to Programme and Project Management is the concept of a Business Case, used to justify the investment in the programme or project. Selecting a software tool warrants no exception to this:

Reasons • Project information is currently difficult to track, and often out of date
• Projects are not compliant with existing/new processes
• Need to sustain an effective project management environment
Options i-method is the only accredited support tool providing a collaborative end to end workflow for the application of PRINCE2. The application can be tailored to align with your own internal processes, as required.
Benefits It is estimated that Project Managers spend more than 25% of their time bogged down in administration, not knowing which version is which, or where to find what. The i-method can reduce this time, and indeed the frustration.

A saving of just 10% of this time represents a saving of £50 per day (based on an average of £500 day). These savings are equally reflected in the work of team and support staff.

• On a six month project, saves £6,000 (per project manager)
• On a 12 month project saves £12,000 (per project manager)
Operational Benefits • Consolidation of PRINCE2 into the organisation
• Controlled project environment
• Structured re-use of own best practice and templates
• Fast and accurate reporting and communication
• Real time view of project progress
• Reduce need for meetings saving time and money
• Standard documentation & automatic configuration management
• Access to current and archived project information
• Reduced administration
