What is Half-Double?
Half-Double methodology is an innovative approach to project management that was developed in Denmark. It is a hybrid method that combines elements from both traditional project management and agile methods to increase the success rate of projects and create more predictable results. The Half-Double method is unique because it combines classic project management techniques with agile methods such as. SCRUM to handle projects with high uncertainty or complexity. This method gives project managers flexibility and the ability to adapt to changes along the way, while ensuring thorough planning and management of the project. The Half-Double method is a good choice for companies that want to increase their project success rate and create more predictable results.
The 3 cornerstones
Flow, Impact and Leadership can be described as the cornerstones or core of the Half-Double method. These elements are vital to deal with in order to ensure the success of the project, as well as to ensure that the project proceeds as planned.
Flow: The Half-Double method focuses on optimizing the flow of the project so that work processes run as efficiently as possible. This can be achieved through good planning and management and by ensuring that the team has the necessary tools and resources.
Impact: The Half-Double method focuses on creating maximum value for the project, thereby ensuring that the project creates the greatest possible benefit.
Leadership: Leadership is important in project management, and the Half-Double method requires a competent and experienced project manager who can guide the team and ensure that the project proceeds as planned. It is also important that the manager can create a good working climate and ensure that the team has the necessary tools to achieve success.
Based on the three cornerstones, the Half-Double method has been developed 8 steps, which forms an additional framework structure for implementing the method.
1. Goals: Define the project goals
2. Risk: Identify and manage potential risks
3. Planning: Plan the project
4. Management: Lead the project
5. Flow: Optimize the flow of the project
6. Impact: Create maximum value for the project
7. Quality: Ensure quality in the project
8. Evaluation: Evaluate project progress and results
Double the effect in half the time
In addition to the 8 steps, the points below also support the core elements of Half-Double. With them in mind, you can ensure success in your projects and adhere to the philosophy of creating double the effect in half the time.
Clear and specific project goals: It is important to have clear and specific goals for the project so that all parties know what needs to be achieved.
Flexibility: : The Half-Double method requires flexibility and the ability to adapt to changes along the way. It is important to be open to changes and have a plan B ready if necessary.
Communication: : Communication is the alpha and omega of good project management. It is therefore important to ensure that all parties are informed of the project's status and any changes.
Collaboration: The Half-Double method requires close collaboration between project managers, team members and stakeholders to ensure a successful project.
Experience: In order to be able to use the Half-Double method, it requires experience with both traditional project management and agile methods.
Adaptation: It is important to adapt the method to the project's specific needs and context, so that it fits the company's culture and working methods.
Risk management: : Identifies and handles potential risks in the project so that their impact on the project's success can be minimized.
Evaluation: : Evaluates the progress and results of the project regularly to ensure that it is progressing as planned and to identify any adjustments that need to be made.
Continuous improvement: : Ensures continuous improvements in the project to optimize work processes and increase the project's success rate.
