Projects in Controlled Environments, also known as PRINCE2, is a method of project management used by individuals, businesses and government bodies across the UK as well as internationally. The PRINCE2 system attempts to set up a set of procedures by which any project can be managed successfully and taken to an adequate conclusion.

The PRINCE2 method consists of a number of stages, which include:

* Directing a Project

* Directing a Project

* Managing Stage Boundaries

* Directing a Project

* Controlling a Stage

* Managing Stage Boundaries

* Managing Product Delivery

* Closing a Project

By breaking tasks down in to their composite parts, organisations are able to methodically work through the necessary processes in order to deliver on the initial brief.

Advantages Of PRINCE2:

The PRINCE2 project management system breaks up projects into manageable phases and provides those individuals accountable for those phases with clearly distinct objectives. Each phase has a defined beginning and end points, and therefore individuals and businesses find it easier to supply estimates for the resources required & estimated time needed to complete any given task.

As a project management system, PRINCE2 can provide every employee working on a project with a series of responsibilities and a definitive role; therefore, if a problem occurs during a project, other individuals know precisely who is responsible for correcting it.

Improving Efficiency With PRINCE2:

With project management software provided by the team at Atlantic Global it is possible to supplement the efficiency of PRINCE2. Project management software allows you to define the stage boundaries, content of the project plan, the structure and the necessary processes to complete the plan. It can be accessed easily by all persons involved with the project and acts as a hub for the project sufficiently improving the efficiency of any PRINCE2 project.

Developed by Motorola in 1981, the Six Sigma method of business and project management is a widely recognised system, designed to improve efficiency and product quality, and is used by businesses in a range of sectors.

Six Sigma projects usually follow certain methodologies:

* DMADV: Define, measure, analyze, design, verify

* DMAIC: Define, measure, analyze, improve, control

As a method of both project and business management the Six Sigma method has many advantages. Typically, individuals and businesses utilizing the Six Sigma method improve the quality of their services and products, develop and enhance staff skills, and enjoy the advantages of a common language for defining and discussing products and projects.
