* Programme Management
Different Types of programme
Programmes can be defined as a group of projects, or size and complexity of projects. Types of programme can be grouped into ‘Must do’ (Imposed on the Organisation), Vision led (Driven by organisation Strategy), Emergent (Emerge from a combination of other projects)
Describe Key Concepts of Programme Management
Key concepts of Programme Management are Project Management, Change Management and Benefits Management. Programme Management brings all three of these together.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Programme Management * Advantages – Better Management of Uncertainty, focus on benefits, reduction of risks and better achievements of benefits * Disadvantage – Costs a lot of time and money, creates roles & responsibilities which aren’t necessarily normal to the company’s business.

* Requirements Management
Explain the Requirements Management Process * The Requirements Management process is to capture requirements from sources, analyse and prioritise each of the requirements. * Sources can come from customer feedback or corporate goals strategy. * Stake holders will be consulted what the new requirements are that the project needs to fulfil. * All requirements must be analysed and understood with regards to priority and Value etc. * Requirements must be understood how each of them interrelate. * Requirement must be tested to understand whether the customer true needs have been established and feasible
Explain different types of requirements * Requirements may be expressed as benefits of a project, the functional performance of the end product or technical specs of component parts. * Projects must clearly differentiate the difference between stakeholders needs, so the benefits can be clearly understood.
Relationship between requirements management and Project Lifecycle * Requirements management is used in the early part of the project
