Governing a Programme

This section deals with designing and implementing the governance arrangements for the programme.  The term 'governance' is defined here as the functions, processes, procedures and responsibilities that define how the programme is to be setup, managed and controlled.  Programme governance provides the backdrop for all activities of managing the programme and achieving the programme's outcomes.

What you need to do

Procure or lease appropriate facilities, or re-deploy existing facilities to provide office space and services for the programme. 

The technology and tools to support the programme need to be acquired and implemented. e.g. intranet and or internet sites, planning, estimating and scheduling tools, document and record management tools.

Points to consider

The Resource Management Strategy should define the requirements for the programme's working environment.
