Website Upgrade Incoming - we're working on a new look (and speed!) standby while we finalise the project

Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

PRINCE - does anybody actually use it successfully?

Perhaps this is a little controversial, but I will ask anyway.

These days there are many books, websites, training courses and so called practitioners of the PRINCE method. However, I have never heard of a project being successfully run using the PRINCE methods.

My question is therefore, PRINCE - does anybody actually use it successfully? Can anybody give us some details of a specific project it was used on that had a sparkling successful outcome?

Gary,

Not sure if this helps but look at the following link:

http://www.prince2.org.uk/Web/Site/ValueAddedProducts/Case-Studies.asp

Also The BestPractice Showcase is an excellent event where organisations provide overviews of where they have successfully implemented best practice (which includes Prince2).

Cheers,
Andrew
