Managing Successful Programmes is the OGC Best Practice standard for defining and implementing change within an organisation.

The role of the OGC in driving improved performance within the public sector through Gateway reviews is raising awareness and demand for this accreditation across all areas of the public and sectors and within organisations serving it.

Managing Successful Programmes (MSP) is the leading open methodology for programme management.

It was originally developed by the British Government, and is supported by a full range of commercial partners. It has been refreshed in 2007 and Adaptive Frameworks are currently the only Accredited Training Organisation in Australia offering the new course.

Programme management is a framework which focuses on delivering business benefits through delivery of new capabilities from project and the transition of business operations to adapt to these new capabilities and deliver the business benefits.

MSP had a major refresh in 2007. It is now a more robust and well rounded framework.

It has been brilliant!!! Our executive have really appreciated the process so far.
To be able to demonstrate a systematic approach to such a large and nebulous problem/opportunity in DSTO has really helped us make it happen.
Paul Zanelli, DSTO

MSP is a framework, it is NOT a methodology.
It is about benefits realisation – pure and simple. It must be sold on this basis at Board level. Without Board support, there is no point using MSP.
Programmes must add value. There is a lot of overhead and expense in running a programme and if it does not add value, run a big project instead. MSP is suitable for specification led programmes, political and societal change programmes and particularly for business transformation programmes.

Adaptive Frameworks understands MSP and is at the forefront of training delivery and consultancy in this framework.
