Projects in Controlled Environments or PRINCE2 is a project management method used by government bodies, individuals and businesses throughout the UK and internationally. The PRINCE2 project management system sets out to establish a set of processes to successfully manage any project and bring it to a satisfactory conclusion.

There are a number of stages to the PRINCE2 method, which include:

* Starting up a Project

* Directing a Project

* Initiating a Project

* Directing a Project

* Managing Product Delivery

* Managing Stage Boundaries

* Closing a Project

* Planning

By breaking tasks down in to their composite parts, organisations are able to methodically work through the necessary processes in order to deliver on the initial brief.

PRINCE2: Advantages

PRINCE2 PM systems break up projects into manageable steps, and provide the persons responsible for those steps with clear defined goals. Each step then has a well-defined start point and end point helping individuals and businesses find it easier to provide time estimates and required resources to complete the task.

As a project management system, PRINCE2 can provide every employee working on a project with a series of responsibilities and a definitive role; therefore, if a problem occurs during a project, other individuals know precisely who is responsible for correcting it.

Improving Efficiency With PRINCE2:

It is feasible to enhance the PRINCE2 system with the addition of project management software, such as those offered by Atlantic Global's team. Project management software allows you to define the structure, stage boundaries and content of a project plan and the procedures needed to deliver that plan, and can be accessed easily by all the projects individuals. The software acts as a hub for the project, and can significantly improve on the efficiency of a PRINCE2 project.
