PROGRAM MANAGEMENT
PROGRAM MANAGEMENT
Program Management is an organizational function that oversees a group of individual projects linked together through a shared organizational goal or common area of impact. The benefit is a consistent level of governance and application of standards across multiple projects. With a single point of oversight, project statuses can be easily rolled up for a global view; this allows for baseline quality requirements to be evenly and equally enforced.
