However, the unique nature of these projects requires a focused approach that is different from that of private sector projects. This book is written to provide an in-depth understanding of the uniqueness of government projects and the challenges that government project managers face. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the unique nature of government projects, the challenges associated with the planning of public sector projects, project governance and organisational arrangements, the peculiar nature of municipal and developmental projects, public%u2013private partnerships, and the management of megaprojects. The book also provides case studies and examples from real-world projects to illustrate key concepts and principles.CONTENTSChapter 1: Uniqueness of government projectsChapter 2: Project management principles, life cycle and modelsChapter 3: Project management tools and techniquesChapter 4: Government programme management in policyproject value chainsChapter 5: Project governance structures and organisational arrangements for project oversightChapter 6: Managing projects in local governmentChapter 7: Service delivery modalities and project deliverologyChapter 8: Managing projects in public-private partnershipsChapter 9: Managing mega government projectsChapter 10: Managing developmental projectsChapter 11: Project human resources and team leadershipChapter 12: Successful management of government projects: best practice and support documentationKEY FEATURES%u2022 Chapter outcomes%u2022 Key points%u2022 Introduction%u2022 Examples %u2022 Conclusion.SUITABLE FORStudents registered for Project Management modules in undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.SUPPORT MATERIAL
