Project Team Governance

Introduction

Team Governance MBA project management Project and program Team Governance that is used quite loosely in the project management community. There is a growing trend, that when a project fails, project Team Governance seems to be the root cause for the unsuccessfully executed project. But what does Governance mean?  entails all the key elements that make a project successful. However, this is not one-size-fits-all. Much of the published governance advice is focused on a corporate or organizational level, concentrating on regulatory activities, or reform initiatives (often centered on IT). The focus of this Team Governance MBA project management guidance is on the efficient instigation and delivery of public sector projects. It is meant to be a quick response to what should be addressed by those responsible for the efficient and effective delivery of projects in the public sector. The governance structure of a project needs to evolve during a project’s lifespan and should therefore be updated periodically as it passes from one stage to the next. 

Project governance is the management framework within which project decisions will be made. It is a critical success factor to have a framework to govern IT projects within MDAs. Therefore, the role of project governance will be to provide a decision making framework that is logical, robust and repeatable to govern IT projects in MDAs. In this way, MDAs should have a different structured approach for conducting business as usual activities (operations) from IT projects. An IT project management governance structure should be developed, approved by MDAs’ Top Management and communicated to all project key stakeholders during the project initiation stage. When delivering effective project management, there are a number of different ways. Some of the structures and mechanisms that can be used may sometimes conflict with each other, so it is important to identify any potential problems at the beginning and to ensure that all necessary protections are in place.
