This book explains how PRINCE2 can be tailored to any size of project
Purchase: PRINCE2 for Small Projects
I recently did a webinar for IT Governance about using PRINCE2 for small projects. It seemed to go down well and I gave out several templates and examples of case studies that should be useful.
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.
