Project set up toolkit
A toolkit to support effective project set-up.
Projects that focus enough attention on the early phases of development are more likely to deliver the intended benefits, at pace. In collaboration with our community, the IPA has developed an integrated suite of tools to support project set-up.
The files in this collection may not be suitable for users of assistive technology. Please contact us to request an accessible format.
Details
The toolkit comprises:
- Project / Programme Outcome Profile – focuses on why the project should be delivered;
- Opportunity Framing – focuses on what the project will deliver; and
- Project Routemap – focuses on how the project will be delivered.
Applying these tools to more of our projects – at the right phase in their life cycles – will be another step towards realising our ambition of world-class delivery.
