The Problem 1.Very good at reviewing things (Not very good at implementing outcomes) 2.Pretty good at implementing systems (Not very good at realising the benefits) 3.OK at managing individual projects (Not very good at joined-up thinking)

Programme Management ‘the coordinated management of a portfolio of projects which change organisations to achieve benefits that are of strategic importance’. It is an approach recommended where there is ‘…complexity and risk…many interdependencies and conflicting priorities to resolve’ and ‘provides a framework for managing this challenging environment’. (Managing Successful Programmes, OGC). (or, Meta-Project Management)
12
Managing Successful Programmes Developed by the UK Office of Government Commerce, building on the PrInCE Project Management methodology Provides a structure and process for programme management and realising benefits from these capabilities’Focus on ‘delivering new capabilities and realising benefits from these capabilities’ Projects deliver capability; the programme delivers benefits

17
The Process Management Board Oracle Student System (OSS) project/earlier review group established need for process management (September 2001), essential for success but outside scope of project Reconvened as the Process Management Board, ‘which will take developments forward and oversee JMU becoming a "process managed" organisation’ (Executive Board 23 rd April 2001) Decided to use Programme Management as method to coordinate multiple projects towards shared strategic objectives OSS project now within framework
18
Why Programme Management for JMU? Places projects in broader context Aligns projects with corporate strategy Manages resources across as well as within Provides specific roles to manage the project portfolio & the delivery of benefits Recognises that the objective is to realise the benefits, not just deliver the capability – an IS project may deliver the capability to do things better, doesn’t necessarily mean the University will do things better
19
Progress to Date Project Management accepted, endorsed, & implemented – essential precursor to Programme Management (start of cultural change) Project portfolio identified & draft Programme plan in place Completed Student Financial Management pilot as proof of concept – Overall student debt reduced by 19% from £3.2m 2001 to £2.61m 2002 In year student debt reduced by 49% from £1.448m 2001 to £709k 2002
20
Progress to Date OSS Phase 1 near to completion, Phase 2 in planning as part of programme Need for integrated eBusiness suite recognised as part of programme Management structure in place in line with new organisational structure, clearly on the executive agenda Aligned with new commitment to the Excellence Model as the blueprint for the programme to deliver against
