Scaled Projects and Programmes10

www.dsdm.org

• Have a clear vision and plan• Small steps• Feedback• Lead by example• Celebrate and Build on success• Set expectations

• The culture of an organisation • Resisting the power structure• Managers feeling threatened by the process

of change• Resistance from employees• A lack of understanding about why change is

to take place• A lack of communication or trust• Employees fearing the unknown.

The success of any kind of social epidemic is heavily dependent on the involvement of people with a particular and rare set of social gifts. - Malcolm Gladwell

Organisational Transformation11

www.dsdm.org

• Part of a bigger whole

• Value against other initiatives

• Many more activities have to be done

• Business Processes

• Infrastructure

• Location

• Benefits realisation

Corporate Complexity12

The Agile Bit• An agile approach to the programme• Contains agile and non-agile projects• Frequent Enablement of Capabilities • Early Benefits Realisation• Autonomous Projects• Includes non-project activities

A mechanism for implementing change“A temporary, flexible structure created to deliver outcomes and benefits related to the organisation’s strategic objectives by driving, monitoring and co-ordinating a set of related projects and activities."

Agile Programmes13

www.dsdm.org

1. Programme goals are clearly and continuously aligned to business strategy

2. Benefits are realised incrementally and as early as possible3. Governance focusses on creating a coherent capability

4. Decision-making powers are delegated to the lowest possible level

5. Agile programmes are iterative and have the ability to contain both agile and non-agile projects

The 5 Principles14

Incremental Benefits15

MoSCoW for Programmes?

www.dsdm.org

• Programme Horizon– Plan in Outline– Define potential tranches– Potential Capabilities /

Benefits

• Tranche Horizon– Detailed for this tranche– Projects and activities– Not detail of projects

Short WorkshopBenefits of the Cambridge Guided Busway

27

The Cambridgeshire Guided Busway (also Cambridge-Huntingdon Rapid Transit Scheme, locally the busway or the guided bus) connects Cambridge, Huntingdon and St Ives in the English county of Cambridgeshire. It is the longest guided busway in the world,[1][2] overtaking the O-Bahn Busway in Adelaide, South Australia.[3][4][5]

Proposed initially in the 2001 the Cambridge-Huntingdon Multi-Modal Study, which recommended widening of the A14 road and construction of a guided busway along the old railway lines, construction began in March 2007 and it was opened on 7 August 2011 after a succession of delays and cost overruns.[2]

The original cost estimate of £150 million rose to £181 million by December 2010.[7] An independent review of the project was announced on 21 September 2010,[8][9] in which the Cambridge MP Julian Huppert at the time described the busway as a "white elephant".[10] A court case with BAM Nuttall, the main contractor, was settled by Cambridge County Council in August 2013.[11]

A total of 2,500,000 trips were made in the first year of operation, which Atkins reported was 40% higher than the predicted figure. Bus ridership along the corridor was estimated to have increased by 33% over the same period.[13] Before opening, the contractor had predicted that an estimated 11,500 journeys per day would be made on the busway.[14] The scheme was predicted to cause a direct reduction in traffic on the busy parallel A14 road of 5.6% (rising to 11.1% with the new Park & Ride sites), although as other traffic re-routes to the freed-up road space from other parts of the local road network, the net reduction is predicted to be 2.3%. The overall scheme was "not intended to solve the congestion problems on the A14" by itself, but will rather have an overall effect across the local road network, and be complementary to planned improvements on the A14.[15]
