Purpose

Use this plan to identify and manage the organisational, technical, interpersonal, logistical and political interfaces within the programme, across its portfolio and with external parties. It turns interrelationships and interdependencies into named controls, owners and risks rather than leaving them between component boundaries.

Application

Develop the plan early and refine it throughout the lifecycle. Include both formal and informal interfaces, but distinguish verified structures from hypotheses about influence or relationships. Protect sensitive organisational and personal information and avoid treating political analysis as permission to stereotype individuals.

Completion discipline

Complete the document from current evidence, name its owner and approving authority, and link the plans, registers or decisions that support it. Retain approved versions and review the document whenever a material assumption, dependency, requirement or governance decision changes.
