An Intensive 5-day Training Course
Distinguishing between Predictive and Adaptive Lifecycle Approaches
Why do many projects across both public and private sectors fail to achieve their intended results? In today’s dynamic and fast-evolving business landscape, effective project planning and control must go beyond rigid structures—they must embrace adaptability and view change as a continuous element rather than an anomaly.
Adaptive project management is designed to address this reality by enabling swift responses to evolving project requirements and conditions. While it retains essential elements like scheduling, planning, and milestone tracking found in traditional project management, this approach allows for greater flexibility, incorporating ongoing changes and refinements throughout the project lifecycle.
In environments marked by uncertainty and shifting stakeholder expectations, value delivery is better achieved through adaptive management strategies rather than through static, predictive methodologies. The Project Management Institute (PMI)® underscores this shift by integrating adaptive principles into the latest edition of the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide, 7th Edition).
While Agile project management concentrates on organizing project teams, Adaptive Project Management expands on that by incorporating analytical tools and quantitative assessments. This supports more precise hypothesis testing, performance measurement, and risk evaluation—making it a more holistic approach for navigating project complexity and unpredictability.
Adopting an adaptive project management model allows teams to respond rapidly to change, enhances the likelihood of project success, and accelerates benefit realization for the organization.
