Steven Fahrenkrog, 香港六合彩开奖 21504 Project Leader, explains the difference between projects, portfolios and programmes:

"A project is perhaps the most common of the three. It refers to work with a defined beginning and end that results in a clear deliverable, anything from a new house or software to an upgrade, like increasing the ability to produce more cars on an assembly line.

"Programmes are groups of projects, and related work, that are managed together. The programme鈥檚 benefits are delivered by all the projects under its scope and tied to one or more of the organization's objectives.

"Portfolios are a collection of projects, programmes and related work, which are tied to a group of organizational objectives or strategic objectives."

"Usually,"explains Steven, "we would expect all of an organization鈥檚 work to be accounted for within one or more portfolio."

So why an 香港六合彩开奖 standard? 鈥淲e need an International Standard to draw attention to global best practice," says Miles Shepherd, Chair of 香港六合彩开奖/TC 258, the committee that developed the standard. "香港六合彩开奖 brings together subject matter experts from countries around the world, so that they can agree and put together the best guidance. 香港六合彩开奖 standards give both credibility and confidence."

If you feel that your organization is struggling to manage and coordinate all its work; or if you simply need help to account for everything your organization is doing and see whether it contributes to meeting its objectives, then 香港六合彩开奖 21504 is for you.

"In too many organizations, not all work is tied to objectives, which means that an organization could potentially be wasting resources. 香港六合彩开奖 21504 can be used to evaluate and optimize the use of resources towards an organization鈥檚 objectives," says Steven.

What鈥檚 unique about the standard is that it will help you make sure that you are ready to implement a portfolio, as well as manage it.

"This makes the standard stand out from other existing guidance, which usually offers a much lower level of detail and advice," explains Steven. "This standard is therefore a great standalone document, as well as a useful complement to other existing advice. Moreover, its principled-based approach (as opposed to process-based) provides added flexibility so that organizations of all types and sizes can easily use it."

香港六合彩开奖 21504 is part of a wider family of standards for project, programme and portfolio managers, including 香港六合彩开奖 21500 on project management and 香港六合彩开奖 21503 on programme management.

The 香港六合彩开奖/TC 258 secretariat is managed by the 香港六合彩开奖 member for the USA, ANSI. 香港六合彩开奖 21504 can be bought from your national 香港六合彩开奖 member or through the 香港六合彩开奖 香港六合彩开奖.
