What is MSP?

Managing Successful Programmes (MSP) is a framework for managing change and delivering organizational benefits from a set of related projects. It is regarded as best practice in the UK and is used by government departments, local authorities, charities and commercial organizations to coordinate and direct programmes of all kinds, regardless of scope, timescale or budget. With its emphasis on stakeholder engagement and benefits realisation, MSP also allows an organisation to maintain a clear link between individual projects and the strategic vision.
