Prince2

Seite 1

PRINCE2 is principle-based rather than prescriptive الزامي ; the principles are:

• universal in that they apply to every project

• self-validating in that they have been proven in practice over many years

• empowering because they give practitioners of the method added confidence and ability to influence and

shape how the project will be managed.

The PRINCE2 principles provide a framework of good practice for people involved in a project and were

developed from lessons taken from both successful and failed projects.

The seven PRINCE2 principles are:

• continued business justification

• learn from experience

• defined roles and responsibilities

• manage by stages

• manage by exception

• focus on products

• tailor to suit the project.

To be following PRINCE2, these principles must be adopted when managing a project. Minimum requirements

set out in the themes and processes chapters must also be satisfied. These minimum requirements describe

what has to be done, rather than how it is done.
