This website is all about the Managing Successful Programmes (MSP) methodology - what it is, who owns the method, which are available and who you can contact for training and consulting.

Large, complex deliveries are often broken down into manageable, inter-related projects. For those managing this overall delivery the principles of programme management are key to delivering on time and within budget. Cabinet Office Best Management Practice in this area is found in Managing Successful Programmes which was updated in 2011.

Managing Successful Programmes comprises a set of principles and processes for use when managing a programme. It is founded on best practice although it is not prescriptive. It is very flexible and designed to be adapted to meet the needs of local circumstances.
