Within OGC’s MSP® framework, the Delivering the Capability process within Managing the Tranches is entirely focused on starting, monitoring and closing projects within the programme. This process does not need to be tailored when working with PRINCE2®.
The PRINCE2 process most affected by working in a programme will be Starting up a Project.
This process could be undertaken almost entirely by the programme.
The programme will: appoint the Executive and Project Manager, review previous lessons, design and appoint the project management team, and probably prepare the Project Brief.
The Project Manager will, however, be responsible for preparing the Initiation Stage Plan. In this context, it is not so much that the Starting up a Project process is not done, just that it is now done mainly by the programme.
