PRINCE2 vs APMP
PRINCE2 training should not be confused with the Body of Knowledge (BoK):
• PRINCE2 is an integrated project management method providing a set of processes and these that can be applied to manage a project from start to finish
• A Body of Knowledge covers the broad spectrum of project management competencies and techniques that Project Managers may need to apply, such as leadership and negotiation.
The comparison between PRINCE2 and a Body of Knowledge, such as the Association for Project Management’s Body of Knowledge, the Project Management Institute’s PMBoK or the International Project Management Association’s Competency Baselines.
The differences between the two books ironically make them complementary as one supplements information which the other does not have. PRINCE2 provides a framework of what needs to be done, by whom and by when. The BoK provides a range of techniques of how those things can be done. For example, in PRINCE2 a critical step in creating a plan is estimating. PRINCE2 does not say how estimating should be done as there are a number of techniques that can be applied depending on the project context, whereas a BoK provides an explanation and analysis of the range of estimating techniques available so that the planner can judge which one is most suitable to use.
Tailoring PRINCE2 if the organisation is aligned to any particular BoK should include:
• Agreeing a single set of terms to apply. For example, in the APMP course, the steering group is equivalent to PRINCE2’s Project Board.
• Aligning PRINCE2’s management products recommended by the BoK. For example, in PMBoK the project charter is equivalent to PRINCE2’s project brief.
