Deliver Fast  with

Mini PID
Manoj Agarwal
January, 2017
The purpose of this style of PID is to enable the good management practices that are employed
on larger projects to be used on smaller projects and consultancy assignments including
IAs.
This document contains the minimal set of PID information that is considered viable to allow a
smaller project still conform to the PRINCE2 philosophy.
If you need more than one page for each of the sections identified then you are probably
supplying too much information - The philosophy behind the PowerPoint PID is to minimise
the amount of text written and speed up the process of Project Initiation. However, feel free
to add additional slides that are diagrammatic in nature (e.g. scope charts, process
diagrams etc). The old adage a picture paints a thousand words is particularly relevant to
this approach.
The front cover has deliberately been left sparse to allow you to customise it for your particular
project.
Guidance text has been added to some of the slides - use it, modify it, or delete to suit your
need.
Please delete this slide before you complete this document.

overall success. It is a short form version of a full scale Project Initiation Document and is meant for use on small projects or
individual consultancy assignments.
To ease presentation the document has been broken down into 6 major areas as follows:
 Introduction & Background: This introduces the document, details its purpose and provides information on the
context of the project, and how we have arrived at the current position of requiring a project.
 Project Definition: Explains what the project needs to achieve. Under this heading are the following sub-headings
 Project Objectives
 Project Scope
 Method Of Approach
 Timescales
 Major Products

 Initial Business Case: Explains why the project is being undertaken
 Organisation: Explains who will be on the Project Management Team:
 Project Controls: lays down how control is to be exercised within the project, and the reporting and monitoring
mechanisms which will support this. This section also includes a statement on the approach to be taken for issue and
risk management.

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this document is to define the project, to form the basis for its management and the assessment of overall success. There
are two primary uses of the document:
 to ensure that the project has a sound basis before asking the Project Board to make any major commitment to the project
 to act as a base document against which the Project Board and Project Manager can assess progress, change management
issues, and on-going viability questions.
