P3M3 Programme Model
4. Programme Management Maturity Model
This model was developed rom research workundertaken during the preparation OGCs ManagingSuccessul Programmes (MSP) ramework andthe subsequent experiences o MSP and the originalversion o P3M3.
Defnition o programme managementProgrammes exist to manage the complexitiesinvolved in delivering benecial change. Programmemanagement is ocused on the areas o tensionbetween strategic direction, project delivery and
operational eectiveness. Mature organizationsrecognize and manage this eectively.
For the purposes o P3M3 a programme is denedas a temporary, fexible organization created tocoordinate, direct and oversee the implementationo a set o related projects and activities in orderto deliver outcomes and benets related to theorganizations strategic objectives.
A programme is likely to have a liespan o severalyears. During a programmes lie cycle, projects areinitiated, executed and closed. Programmes provide anumbrella under which projects can be coordinated, and
the programme integrates the projects so that it candeliver an outcome greater than the sum o its parts.
Characteristics o programme managementGood programme management will be expected tohave the ollowing characteristics.
Focus will be on direction and delivery oorganizational strategy
The delivery o a coherent capability will underpinprogramme activities
Visions and blueprints will be within theprogramme perimeter
Timescales may be loosely dened but there will bea denite end point
Risk will be viewed in terms o aggregation andoperational transition
Issue orientation will be towards resolving inter-project escalations and benets delivery
Benet realization will be dominant, with signicantocus on the rigour o benet descriptions andrealization delivery
Stakeholder management will be ocused at alllevels within the organization and on key externalinfuencers
Governance will be achieved through consistentprogramme strategies and the application oorganizational or portolio standards, wherethey exist
Planning will be orientated towards deliveringoutcomes through step changes (tranches) andmanaging project interdependencies
Business cases will ocus on benecial changebalanced against the cost o delivery.
Attributes o programme managementThe ollowing sections set out the attributes oreach o the seven Process Perspectives within theProgramme Management Maturity Model, at eacho the ve Maturity Levels, along with a descriptiono each attribute.
