Project Management - PRINCE2™ 2009 Publications

"The updated guidance will help those running projects of any size and in any environment to effectively deliver what is required by appropriately managing the costs, timescales, quality, scope, risks and benefits.

This latest version of 'Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2' represents an evolution of the previous manuals. The basic method remains but by building on feedback from users, this new manual aims to be more accessible and easier to tailor. For those people who sponsor or direct projects there is a revolution in that they now have a role specific guide targeted for their needs."
Andy Murray, Lead Author, PRINCE2
