PRINCE2's Project Organisation


PRINCE2's organisation theme defines the Project Team or organisation. It establishes the project's structure of accountability and responsibilities.

As PRINCE2 is based on a customer/supplier environment, it assumes that there will be a customer who will specify the desired result and probably pay for the project, and a supplier who will provide the resources and skills to deliver that result.


A successful project management team should have business, user and supplier stakeholder representation.


Business

  • The products of the project should meet a business need which will justify the investment in the project.
  • Should also provide value for money.
  • The Executive looks after business interests

User


The user viewpoint should represent those individuals or groups for whom some or all of the following will apply:

  • They will use the outputs of the project to realize the benefits after the project is complete
  • They will operate, maintain or support the project’s outputs
  • The outputs of the project will impact them
  • The Senior User(s) will represent this stakeholder interest on the Project Board

Supplier

  • The creation of the project’s outputs will need resources with certain skills. The supplier viewpoint should represent those who will provide the necessary skills and produce the project product or Specialist Product.
  • The Senior Supplier(s) will represent this stakeholder interest on the Project Board.
  • ’Customer’ can usually be interpreted as a collective term for business and user interests

What are Important Roles in Scrum-Agile Teams?

The Primary Team roles in scrum are named as • Product Owner  • Scrum Master • Development Team Scrum Master, Product Owner, and Team are considered as people who are committed to the project while customers and executive management are considered as involved but not committed to the project. Scrum Teams are self-organizing and cross-functional.

The team model in Scrum is designed to optimize flexibility, creativity, and productivity. Scrum Teams deliver products iteratively and incrementally, maximizing opportunities for feedback. Incremental deliveries of “Done” product ensure a potentially useful version of working product is always available. All the roles are based on the concept of “S...
