Case Study on Using
AgilePM
in a
PRINCE2 Project
This presentation will be taking a look at a project where
“Agile Project Management” and PRINCE2 methods of
project delivery were successfully employed together. The
project was for the delivery a new bandwidth usage protocol
configuration onto a Bank’s National Network to enable
Application bandwidth prioritization usage as the new
applications, and hence teller system, was being moved to
Java functionality.

Introduction to Relationship between
PRINCE2 and AgilePM methodologies
• The following slide will show a graphic view of
the correlation of processes in PRINCE2 and
the Phases employed by Atern Agile Project
Management
• AgilePM established with PRINCE2
• Correlation of the Processes/Stages to
Phases/Increments
• Relationship of plans and lifecycles

The Project -
A Bank Network Upgrade
• Part of bank teller system replacement programme to employ Java based
applications
• Network to introduce QoS (Quality of Service) banding
– Gold for high demand applications (40% b/w)
– Silver for general demand applications (next 30%)
– Bronze – backoffice applications (20% b/w)
• QoS was a new concept indicating that the required solution to Prioritize traffic
would have to evolve
• Scope was two years old so requirements would have to be reviewed as well as
equipment
• Proof of Concept (PoC)facilities no longer available from the incoming Telco
(Optus)so alternative had to be sourced
• PoC was allocated one (1) month to complete defining, testing and piloting the
Gold, Silver and, as Could, Bronze.
• Estimates for Effort would be broad as new functionality and no known active
solution for this type of network
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
• Initial Project Start Up employing PRINCE2® as the primary methodology
• Stage 1- (P2) Initiating a Project used to setup and review Project in detail
• Stage 2 - (P2) Redefine current scope, Pre Project phase for Stage 3, Tenders for Integrators
• Stage 3 – (APM) Define and Develop requirements for technical solution, deploy 1st Pilot
• Stage 4 – (APM-P2) Refine Technical solution (Pilot feedback), 1st Pilot - Engage Integrator
• Stage 5 – (APM-P2) Refine Technical solution (Pilot feedback), 2nd Pilot - Plan National Roll-Out
• Stage 6 – (P2) First group of Retail Banks for Live Upgrade
• Stage 7 – (P2) Upgrade remaining 345 retail branches Nationwide
The Project Plan -
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
• Initial Project Start Up employing PRINCE2® as the primary methodology
• Stage 1- (P2) Initiating a Project used to setup and review Project in detail
• Stage 2 - (P2) Seek Integrators and Hardware requirements
SU and Stages 1-2 – PRINCE2 – High Level
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
Pre Project
• Stage 2
o Review current scope (2 years old at this point)
o Define resource requirements (original Proof of Concept facilities no longer valid)
o Define Approach for PoC delivery (AgilePM) for Stage 3
o Plan Stage 3 - AgilePM Feasibility/Foundations and then move into first Development Phase
(Exploration and Engineering Timeboxes)
SU and Stages 1-2 – PRINCE2 - Detail
• Starting Up a Project: document and sign-off Project Brief and
Approach - Use a hybrid of methodology using PRINCE2 and Agile
• Initiating a Project: Usual IP activities and preparing Stage 2 ,
planning the project to engage both delivery approaches: Agile
for the PoC and PRINCE2 for the main rollout and overall
Organisation and governance mapping for Roles and
Responsibilities
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
• Stage 3 – (APM) Define and Develop requirements for technical solution,
deploy 1st and 2nd Pilots to check initial design
Stage 3 – AgilePM managed Increment (P2 stage) HighLevel
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
• Use Feasibility/Foundations to define and prioritize the requirements to be delivered
over how many increments.
• Approach was to build the “Gold” application configuration requirements during the
1st increment and deploy into the 1st Pilot
• Feedback on the 1st Pilot (HeadOffice branch) was fed back to 2nd Timebox for further
refinement
• 2nd Pilot used for checking Telco configurations and hence full “Gold” function
Stage 3 – AgilePM Development Phase
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
• Agile: Refine Technical solution (Pilot feedback), 2nd Pilot
• PRINCE2: Engage Integrator, Preparations for Hardware builds and
configuration
Stage 4 – Joint AgilePM and PRINCE2
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
Agile:
• Refine Technical solution for Gold using Pilot feedback (1st Pilot)
• Commence development of configurations for Silver and Bronze
• Deploy Silver and Bronze solutions and commence 2nd Pilot
PRINCE2 • Engage Integrator
• Start planning the roll-out stages 6 and 7 with Integrator
• Define and order hardware requirements
Stage 4 - PRINCE2 managed stage – AgilePM Develop solution
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
• AgilePM - Refine Technical solution (Pilot feedback), 2nd Pilot
• PRINCE2 - Plan National Roll-Out in detail
Stage 5 - PRINCE2 managed stage – AgilePM - Develop solution
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
AgilePM
• Timeboxes under this Development Increment used to
• Refine Silver and Bronze applications • Develop other requirements (including any dropped from earlier Timeboxes)
• Complete Pilot stage and sign-off developed solution now ready for
Deployment and hand back to PRINCE2
PRINCE2
• Finalize plans for 1st Stage roll-out in Stage 6
• Ensure resources in place and hardware (replacement network) preconfigured
Stage 5 - PRINCE2 managed stage – AgilePM Develop solution
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
• Stage 6 – (P2) First group of Retail Banks for Live Upgrade
• Stage 7 – (P2) Upgrade remaining 345 retail branches Nationwide
Stages 6 and 7 - PRINCE2 managed stages: Main Project Roll-Out
PRINCE2® ® is a Registered Trade Mark of the Cabinet Office The APMG Swirl Agile Project Management Device is a Trade Mark of APM Group Ltd.
• Stage 6 - Upgrade the first 20 Branches spread nationally: 5 a night 4
nights
• Stage 7 – On successful completion of Stage 6 and sign-off, follow rest of
the Roll-out plan and upgrade the remaining 345 Nation-wide branches
• Post Project – Agile to monitor the success of the Bandwidth Prioritization

Summary of Presentation
• PRINCE2 and Atern AgilePM can be used to deliver projects of
varying delivery requirements and needs
• Most projects are probably in reality managed this way
• There are some direct correlations between the
processes/phases of both methodologies
• Not necessary to marry these up directly, more important to
know and understand how each can be best employed for
each project
