IBM Rational Method for Program Mobilization V1.01

This is a Rational Method Composer (RMC) plug-in, which contains methods and practices that provide guidance for the initiation of a large-scale Program effort; derived from the SUMMIT Ascendant program management method. Current contents include: the definition of a governance structure, establishment of the program office (PMO), and the delivery of an enabling infrastructure. The plug-in also includes guidance for planning constituent projects, developing an overall Program plan, and establishing initial program management and controls policies and practices.

Note: This is a Rational Method Composer V7.0.1 plug-in. You can click on the plug-in name to download the zip file.
