Specifically, you will learn how to: Enable the project board to make key decisions and exercise overall control over the project, whilst delegating the day-to-day management of the project to the project manager. Set the solid foundation for the management and control of a project, helping customers to understand the work, time and money required to deliver the project’s products before they commit to a significant investment. Assign work to teams, monitor the work, manage issues and risks, report progress to the project board, and take necessary actions to ensure that a project stage remains within its tolerances. Control the link between the customer and supplier by placing formal requirements on the team manager for the work to be done. Provide the project board with an updated status of the project so it can review the achievements of the current stage, approve the next stage plan, review the updated project plan, and confirm the project is still justified and that the risks are still tolerable. Provide a set point at which it is confirmed that acceptance for the project product has been obtained, to review whether the objectives set out in the original project initiation documentation have been achieved and that there is nothing more to do as regards the project.
