About the framework

Project management focuses on achieving results through managing opportunities and risks, managing stakeholders and making the best use of resources. It seeks to ensure that each project will deliver outcomes that are consistent with organisational policy and strategic objectives.

The OnQ project management framework seeks to improve project delivery capability and performance. It does this through promoting:

• communication with project stakeholders
• solutions that increase stakeholder satisfaction and benefits realisation
• an understanding of the bigger picture and the project's part in it
• identification and appropriate management of opportunities and risks
• planning of the total project life-cycle before committing resources
• improved reliability in estimating costs and benefits
• a team approach to problem-solving
• a focus on reviewing and improving processes.

The framework establishes fundamental principles to achieve consistency in project management. It details a methodology that can be tailored to any nature or size of project. It specifies the roles and responsibilities of the key players, including approval processes, and offers tools, techniques and templates to assist those working on the project.

This site proposes that projects be established using the project governance model and then managed, as per the project methodology, by completing the appropriate templates.
