Project Management Methodologies;

PRINCE2 Vs SSADM

PRINCE2 (PRojects IN Controlled Environments)

The PRINCE2 framework says that a project should have:
  • An organised and controlled start, i.e. organise and plan before leaping in.
  • An organised and controlled middle, i.e. keeping projects organised and controlled.
  • An organised and controlled end, i.e. when you've got what you want and the project has finished, tidy up the loose ends.
To describe what a project should do and when, PRINCE2 has a series of processes. These cover all the activities needed on a project, from starting up to closing down.


SSADM (Structured Systems Analysis & Design Method)

SSADM uses a combination of text and diagrams throughout the whole life cycle of a system design, from the initial design idea to the actual physical design of the application.
