Project & Program Management

Program Management is bringing to conclusion a portfolio of projects which take part of a common philosophy.

 

The more speaking example is that of the deployment of the strategy of a company, following the phase of “Strategy Design” (Strategic Concept), the company must defined a portfolio of complementary yet stand-alone initiatives enabling to deploy its strategy and to make it a daily fact in the life of the company.

 

This example is selected to illustrate: the complexity inherent with this competence, the importance to implement this expertise well, and finally the need to align to ensure success. It is for us the means of providing the maximum of return to our customers as it is there that we can have a significant positive impact.More specifically, we define these competences as follows:
 
  •  
    Project management: who consists in framing a precisely definite initiative (objective, expected result, budgetary boundaries), utilizing a very restricted number of departments in the company (two to three maximum). A project contains a set of activities coherent and linear, which correctly sequenced and carried out, lead to the result.
 
  •  
    The management of program: who consists in framing a portfolio of projects, utilizing a widened number of departments (sometimes all the departments of the company). Contrary to the project, the program rests on a certain number of concepts, which evolve/move and progressively unfold. It is the role of the Program Manager to ensure the alignment of the these evolution to deliver on the required target.
