The Praxis Framework

The Praxis Framework is a comprehensive project management framework designed to enhance the effectiveness of project delivery across various industries and organisations. Developed by industry experts and practitioners, Praxis combines best practices, methodologies, and approaches to provide a holistic and adaptable framework for managing projects of all sizes and complexities. 

Praxis has emerged as an invaluable resource and is now further enriched for Method Grid users. This adaptable framework, synonymous with Portfolio, Programme and Project Management (P3M) and best practice is now available as a customisable grid for Method Grid users. 

The Power of Praxis

Elevating project management, the Praxis Framework distils the essence of P3M delivery into an easily navigated resource. Praxis is far more than a collection of practices; it’s an embodiment of consistency and compliance that resonates across an organisation’s entire portfolio. 

At its core, Praxis isn’t just a methodology – it’s a meticulous knowledge management resource encompassing: 

• Knowledge: Laying the foundation for informed decision-making. 
• Method: Assembling proven best practices that inform the strategic direction of projects. 
• Capability Assessments: Tools to gauge and enhance organisational competencies. 
• Encyclopedia: A resource hub of industry insights, definitions, and best practices. 
• Company Framework: A tailored framework blueprint that aligns project management to your organisation’s unique situation. 

Benefits of adopting the Praxis Framework

The Praxis framework offers numerous benefits to organisations seeking to improve their project management practices. Some key advantages include: 

• Flexibility: Praxis allows organisations to select and combine project management methodologies based on the project’s unique requirements, enabling tailored and adaptable approaches. 
• Integration: By integrating different methodologies, Praxis promotes cross-functional collaboration and seamless communication among project teams, stakeholders, and management. 
• Scalability: Praxis is suitable for projects of various sizes and complexities, from small initiatives to large-scale programs. It can be applied to diverse industries and sectors. 
• Standardisation: Praxis provides a standardised framework that promotes consistent practices and a shared understanding of project management principles across an organisation. 
• Efficiency: The framework’s structured approach streamlines project management processes, reduces duplication of efforts, and enhances overall efficiency and productivity. 

Praxis and Method Grid

Together with the Method Grid platform, Praxis has been transformed into an online resource that is a dynamic, interactive experience. Whilst it has been available for free online, now the Praxis Framework’s cornerstone elements – from governance and stakeholder management to meticulous controls – are vividly visualised within the Method Grid’s Praxis Framework grid. 

Method Grid breathes life into the Praxis experience, uniting the framework’s elements into a unified digital playbook. This playbook provides a structured approach encompassing project identification, definition, seamless delivery, and culminating in efficient closure, all underscored by focusing on the ensuing business benefits. 

We have previous held one of our GRIDtalk webinars discussing the Praxis and Method Grid collaboration. You can access the recording of the event here.
