Abstract
The entire framework described so far exists for one purpose, which is to enable the right projects to deliver effectively within an organisation. Projects are the individual efforts that deliver specific measurable results. Strategic portfolio management and programme delivery management are concerned with ensuring organisations invest in the right initiatives to deliver strategic value, and that the delivery is coordinated and executed in a way that delivers the right results and contributes towards meeting strategic aims, while managing the organisational risks involved in business change. However, it is in the projects that the results are actually produced.
