Benefits of a Project Methodology

Be Better Organised
- Defines standard outputs and reduces the possibility of inconsistent project delivery.
- The methodology helps to provide a point of reference framework for project members and stakeholders.
- The methodology is repeatable across the organisation and can be easily taught and learned.
Resources used by projects can be standardised and made easily available at project launch.

Know The Outputs
- Defines key documents that must be provided for project tracking and reporting.
- Expectations of stakeholders can be set at the outset and managed through the project lifecycle.
- Key documentation delivered as standard output improves project visibility and helps to make the current status more transparent.

Improve Management Information
- Management Information such as project progress tracking and delivered benefits tracking are easier to provide.

Improve Quality of Delivery
- Quality expectations can be defined and tracked and are not carried solely by the skill of the project manager.

Improve Cost Control
- Current business challenges can be passed into a known “solution pool” where cost of resolution can be easily managed.
