PRINCE
Our project management methodology is founded on PRINCE 2.

Unfortunately project failures are all too common - some make the headlines, the vast majority are quickly forgotten. The reasons for failure are wide and varied. Some common causes are:

• Lack of co-ordination of resources and activities
• Lack of communication with interested parties, leading to products being delivered which are not what the Customer wanted
• Poor estimation of duration and costs, leading to projects taking more time and costing more money than expected
  
• Insufficient measurables
  
• Inadequate planning of resources, activities, and scheduling
  
• Lack of control over progress so that projects do not reveal their exact status until too late
  
• Lack of quality control, resulting in the delivery of products that are unacceptable or unusable.

We believe that the quality design and delivery of excellent solutions and services needs a strong project management methodology; PRINCE 2 underpins our assure Risk Management and Benefits Delivery Programme.
