Managing Successful Programmes (MSP)

What is MSP training?

Successful programme management, much like project management, is a tool for defining what it is you hope to achieve and then bringing together people, information and activites to accomplish this endeavour. Managing Successful Programmes five day training course provides delegates with the fundamental skills required to ensure that any programme is a success and achieves the strategic goals of any organisation.

The Principles in Managing Successful Programmes advise how to:

  • Organise people to ensure responsibilities and lines of communication are clear
  • Plan the work in a way which achieves results
  • Ensure that the organisation does benefit from undertaking the programme
  • Ensure that all interested parties (the stakeholders) are involved
  • Resolve issues which arise
  • Identify and manage risks
  • Ensure quality
  • Keep up to date information which tracks the continually changing environment
  • Audit a programme to ensure standards are being followed

The Processes in Managing Successful Programmes describe how to:

  • Identify the aim of the programme and envisaged benefits to the organisation
  • Define the programme, and specify how the organisation will be different afterwards
  • Establish the programme
  • Monitor and co-ordinate the projects within a programme to a successful conclusion
  • Manage the transition between the 'old' and 'new' ways of working, ensuring benefit
  • Close the programme and ensure the 'end goal' has been achieved.
