The Simply Projects® Method
WPM’s Simply Projects® Method is documented in a single volume comprising 5 self-contained booklets, all based on the PRINCE2 Project Management Methodology. The booklets guide staff on how to manage projects.
A key feature of the Method is the classification of projects into three types by reference to a set of pre-determined criteria that apply to all your projects and are applicable across the organisation. These types determine the level of management effort required for each project.
The “Type” booklets have been written to be easy for Project Managers to follow, taking the project chronologically, rather than being a reference book where the reader has to know where to look to find the topic of immediate interest. In particular, the Type 1 Project booklet (for simple projects) uses the minimum of project management jargon to make it easy to read for relatively inexperienced project managers. The booklets make the PRINCE2 methodology easy to understand and apply to projects in the real world.
- Booklet 1: Essentials
- Booklet 2: Managing a Type 1 Project
- Booklet 3: Managing a Type 2 Project
- Booklet 4: Managing a Type 3 Project
