Governance Frameworks for Public Project Development and Estimation includes a thorough investigation into theoretical perspectives and theories, mainly from economy and social sciences. Thirty-two aspects of theory are assessed, and it is indicated whether each framework design seems to have put weak or strong emphasis on each of these aspects. The purpose of the report is to seek better understanding of how the governance framework and the projects interact and how the framework influences the project. Governance frameworks help to improve the initial and fundamental design of projects as well as avoid some of the common problems related to the implementation of projects. Implementation of governance frameworks represents a potential for considerable savings and added value by making cost estimation and time planning more effective.

An organization's governance framework for managing projects significantly affects how its project teams develop project estimates. And these frameworks, particularly when teams are working on public sector projects, can influence a project team's expectations and performance. This paper examines a PMI-supported study--involving four case studies--looking at how project governance frameworks can affect the front-end appraisal and the implementation of public investment projects. In doing so, it defines the concepts of public and project governance; it overviews the historical development of three frameworks for governing public projects in Norway and in the United Kingdom (UK). It compares these frameworks, noting the points of similarity and disparity. It then analyzes the four case studies, detailing how a public project's governance framework can affect its implementation and outcome. It also lists ten lessons about governing public projects that the authors learned from analyzing the four case studies.

Although program management has received much attention in recent books, program governance remains a relatively new subject. While selected books and standards touch on this important topic, few are devoted to program governance as a subject. This book fills that need. Program Governance provides a thorough understanding of governance while reviewing the underlying theories. The first book dedicated to this subject, it caters to the needs of practitioners, researchers, and students of management and governance. The book provides a holistic view of program governance while covering multiple elements of program governance. Topics covered include the governance structure, governance roles, governance functions, governance mechanisms, factors influencing the governance framework, and different domains of programs that come under the jurisdiction of a governance framework. The book presents the author’s own program governance framework, called the Contingent Governance Framework for Programs (CGFPrgTM), which is adaptable to suit different program contexts. This adaptability ensures that the different elements of governance, including structure and mechanisms, are aligned with program requirements. Such alignment results in an efficient and effective environment with an increased probability of program success. The text supplies references to research and case studies to help readers understand key concepts in more detail. It also includes objectives at the end of each chapter to help readers gauge their knowledge of the subject. The book clarifies the linkage/dependencies between program governance and other governance levels, such as international governance and corporate governance, which have a strong influence on governance framework for programs. It also explains the difference between the dynamics of temporary organizations, such as projects and programs, and permanent organizations. This distinction between temporary and permanent organizations provides readers with a practical understanding of how governance should be implemented in both types of organizations.

Understanding governance as it applies to portfolios, programs, and projects is growing in importance to organizations, because appropriate governance is a factor in the success or failure of strategic initiatives and portfolios, as well as an organization's programs and projects. Implementing an effective governance framework can be challenging due to factors such as increasing business complexities, regulatory requirements, globalization, and rapid changes in technology and business environments. Many organizations do not have a consistent approach to portfolio, program, and project governance. PMI's Governance of Portfolios, Programs, and Projects: A Practice Guide, developed by leading experts in the field, provides guidance to organizations and practitioners on how to implement or enhance governance on portfolios, programs, and projects. This practice guide provides definitions for governance in an effort to distinguish the different levels of governance and to identify their common elements.

Corporate governance has come under intense scrutiny in recent years, following numerous high profile corporate collapses. Shareholders and other stakeholders are demanding increased accountability, transparency, and ability to implement strategy. As projects and programs are the vehicles for delivery of corporate strategies, project governance, within the corporate governance framework, has become a hot topic in organizations. In the last year or so, project and program governance have become widely used terms in organizations and have been used in titles for several conferences, but there has till now, been no publication that has clearly presented project and program governance concepts and their application in practice. This book meets the needs of researchers, teachers of project management and practitioners while also responding to the needs of senior managers, project and program managers in organizations tasked with establishing project governance frameworks. It presents a clear view of what constitutes project governance, how it relates to corporate governance and how it can be deployed in organizations to enhance corporate performance.

This research-based book takes an organization-wide perspective to describe the governance and governmentality for projects in organizations. Governance of projects defines and directs the ways managers of projects, programs, and project portfolios carry out their work. Governmentality is the way the managers of these managers present themselves to those they lead. Governance and Governmentality for Projects starts with introducing existing theories, models and paradigms for governance and governmentality. It then develops a chronological framework of the ways governance and governmentality for projects is enabled in organizations, how it subsequently unfolds in organizations of different types and sectors, and the consequences of different governance approaches for project results, trust, control, and ethical issues in projects. Special emphasis is given to the link between corporate governance and the governance of project, programs and project portfolios. Three real-life case studies exemplify the research findings described in the book. Through its structure this book describes the development of governance and governmentality in the realm of projects from its organizational origins, via observable practices, to expected consequences of different implementations. Aimed at academics, post-graduate students in business and management, reflective practitioners, standards or policy developers, those in governance roles and others in need of a detailed knowledge of the spectrum of project related governance in organizations, this book will help develop a comprehensive understanding of the theoretical and practical underpinnings of the subject, their interaction, and implications for implementation. This allows for understanding and developing of both generic and idiosyncratic governance structures, such as those needed in project-based organizations.

Public sector organizations are under increasing stakeholder pressure to demonstrate accountability and transparency when implementing policies and adapting to changes. This article examines how four Australian public sector organizations have generated value from using project management to implement governance responsibilities. In doing so, it overviews select studies on public sector initiatives to invest in project management and on public sector practices to establish effective governance frameworks, listing four reasons driving public organizations to improve five types of operations. It defines the concept of network governance and public value management (NPV), looking at these in relation to the drivers of generating value from--and investing in--practicing project management within the public sector. It discusses the four cases, describing each organization's function and its reasons for implementing project management. It then compares the authors' findings from reviewing the four cases, noting the common issues and themes. It analyzes--using these findings--the public sector's perception of the value of practicing project management, detailing these findings in relation to four critical themes. It also explains the findings in relation the PMI-sponsored study on project management's value (findings published in 2008) that was conducted by Thomas and Mullaly.

The literature on project governance continues to grow as this paper is being written. In this paper, project governance will be examined from various points of views, such as concepts and ideas; the project sponsorship perspective; the three levels of governance (the executive board level, the context level, and the individual project level) within the project-based organizations; governance of project management (GoPM); project, program, portfolio governance levels; governance of multi-owned projects (GoMOP); project owner point of view; relationship between corporate governance and project management; project governance models, and project governance frameworks. It is also important to denote, that this paper outlines the previous literature that has been written in the area of project governance and ultimately it delineates the conclusions and recommendations for further research on project governance. This literature review is an interim result of ongoing research that addresses the relationship between corporate governance and project management.
