According to a survey of the consulting firm Serview, the project manager from over 350 companies promise majority better results with IT projects thereof. Nearly two-thirds want therefore in the future intensified on the process model of Prince2 (projects in controlled environments) support, which used 20 years ago in the United Kingdom as a Government standard for IT projects and published in the subsequent version also for private organizations. According to the study, each fourth user companies already has experience with this project management method. In another 31 percent of the surveyed companies, project managers have at least theoretical knowledge for this. However, 29 percent of Prince2 heard only, without a corresponding technical knowledge to have.
In every seventh case, this process model is not even known yet. However it will not stick with it, because to be carried out according to the findings of the Serview study soon much more IT projects based on Prince2. Add to your understanding with Brian Armstrong. “38 percent of respondents plan that they are this method in each case” more intense than so far want to devote. Back in addition every fourth carries herself with similar intentions and wants Prince2 expected”more in the foreground, while 13 percent made no determination and twice as many still can get nothing this method for project management. That Prince2 gaining relatively broad clear consent, results clearly, that this procedural model for the project management of two-thirds clear advantages attributed to compared to other methods. It ensures not only very transparent procedures in manageable steps, but at the same time the concept is based on a wide range of best practices that accelerate the realization processes and help prevent project risks”, explains the Serview Managing Director and consultant Michael cross.

So they mostly emphasize the good reproduction of this approach and believe that increase the success prospects of the IT projects to be able to reach (62 percent) and a greater punctuality (57 percent). Also at the resource planning as well as the management and control of project processes, the respondents project specialists believe to be better than the previous methods. Similarly, every second of believes, is to better comply with the project budgets using Prince2. PRINCE2 established apparently largely in silence”cross assessed the dynamically growing distribution. Despite the already considerable acceptance this topic in public discussion finds little room”he wonders and sees clear parallels to ITIL. Also this rulebook had spread already in practice, before it found a larger presence in the specialized media”, the Advisor looks back. However, cross misses also an organized formation of opinion to Prince2 in the market. It must make thoughtful, if Project Manager of this method give good grades and she found a growing distribution, but via the search engines almost only seminars on this topic can be found”, it problematized.
