People work on more than one project
And have responsibilities for routine work
History of over-committing functional areas
PRINCE 1

Benefits at GCHQ
Establish core specialist teams
Being part of a permanent team
Helps clarify who is working on a project
Rationalised projects
Roles define and quantify routine work
Customer / supplier relationship

32
Benefits at GCHQ
In one pilot area, the increase in work throughput with the same resources has been estimated at 30%. Although more modest improvements are expected overall, even a 3% improvement in the use of resources would represent 30 additional staff, or an efficiency gain on the salary bill of over £1M p.a.

Conclusion - 1
Organisations end up with matrix management
Which leads to problems with resource allocation and responsibility for work
And matrix management is blamed

Conclusion - 2
Centre Management is matrix management by design
It provides: assignment of staff to project teams execution of work packages - tasks execution of routine work - roles efficient and effective use of resources allows all work to be planned, authorised and
accounted for
