Programme Management

What is Programme Management?

Effective programme management is key in improving an organisation's performance and, ultimately, provides better care for patients. Whether it's a transformation agenda, a range of clinical redesign projects, or non-clinical initiatives, an organised and effective programme management approach is essential in ensuring organisations deliver on time, on budget and, most importantly, with the desired outcomes.

Specialist programme management support will help an organisation achieve their strategic goals, increase the success of projects through better management of interdependencies, more effective management of resources and better management of risks and issues. Put simply, NHS organisations that organise their projects as programmes and employ programme management methodology are more likely to see their desired outcomes.
