PRINCE2 is a de facto standard developed and used extensively by the UK government and is widely recognised and used in the private sector, both in the UK and internationally. It embodies established and proven best practice in project management.
PRINCE2® (PRojects IN Controlled Environments), is a widely used project management method that navigates you through all the essentials for running a successful project.
PRINCE2 is a flexible method and is aimed at all types of projects.
The development of PRINCE2 from the earlier PRINCE method was driven by user based improvements, project management specialists and a review panel of 150 public and private sector organisations. This end result is a generic best practice tool which is flexible enough to be tailored to your organisation and used successfully for all types of project.
Official Launch Event - The official launch of the latest revision of PRINCE2 took place on 16th June 2009 at the Cavendish Conference Centre, London. The core publications that comprise the updated method are now available.
