OGC PRINCE2 Exam Examples By Colin Bentley


PRINCE2 for Small Projects

How small does a project or piece of work need to be before you stop using PRINCE2 to manage it? When does PRINCE2 become a bureaucratic overkill? How can I manage a job that is too small to be called a project? How much PRINCE2 do I use to manage a project with only a couple of people in it?

This book sets out to explain how PRINCE2 can be tailored to any size of project, starting with the smallest. It takes every part of the method and shows what can be combined and how to tailor the method to avoid unnecessary overheads without losing control, but still making it clear what you want as the end result.

Revised throughout to match the details and requirements of the 2009 PRINCE2 manual and simplified to make it more useful for those who are new to the method, PRINCE2 Revealed, second edition, is the perfect first reference. A readable end-to-end overview of the complex PRINCE2 method that starts from a more accessible level than other detailed manuals, it will ease you into the topic and put the method into a real world context.

So, the next question is do we need a Project Brief AND Project Initiation Documentation? Is this not duplication? If you consider a five year project and the extra information that is created in the Project Initiation Documentation, I don’t believe it is duplication. The Project Brief information forms part of the Project Initiation Documentation, but we add lots of good things – controls, strategies, a refined Business Case and Risk Register etc.

Struggling to apply the principles of PRINCE2 in practice?
Need guidance on adapting the method for smaller projects?

PRINCE2: A Practical Handbook, third edition, provides the solution. This practical reference, matching the detail and requirements of the 2009 PRINCE2 manual, contains real-life examples and case studies, links between related themes and processes, and clear guidance on how to fine-tune the method to help you manage projects successfully, whatever the context or size.
