Is there a difference between PRINCE2 and MSP?
Yes, the main difference falls in the focus of each methodology. PRINCE2 focuses on project management, while MSP focuses on managing a collection of projects, known as a programme. As such, PRINCE2 teaches a structured method for project managers to follow throughout the course of any individual project, whereas MSP emphasises the importance of strategic alignment, governance and benefits management across multiple projects.
What are the core benefits of combining PRINCE2 and MSP?
By combining these methodologies, you can effectively manage multiple projects within the context of a larger programme. MSP offers a strategic approach, while PRINCE2 provides a more tactical focus. Using the two together means you can ensure that your project and programme management approach is aligned with the overall business strategy, while still maintaining a focus on delivering projects on time, within budget, and to the required level of quality.
