Major programmes offer immense potential for transformative change, but their inherent complexity demands a balance of vision, adaptability, and flawless execution. Achieving on-time and within-budget delivery remains a challenge for public and private sector organisations.
This report explores a critical success factor in these large-scale endeavours: momentum. Drawing on the experience of Deloitte's Major Programmes team and our next-generation approach – Programme Aerodynamics® - we unpack six principles for building and sustaining momentum throughout the programme lifecycle: right environment; minimum viable bureaucracy; pace vs control; clear outcomes; continuous improvement; and handover to business teams. Working with our team of Major Programmes practitioners, we impart knowledge garnered from extensive, first-hand experience of leading and managing large-scale transformation programmes across industries.
Deloitte's Major Programmes team tackles complex transformations by moving beyond traditional project management methodologies, which can often hard-code failure into programmes from the start. We leverage Programme Aerodynamics,® built on the principles of our NextGen delivery approach —Anticipate, Unify, Innovate, Evolve — to navigate volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environments and deliver successful outcomes.
We are excited to share our NextGen Delivery insights and hope that this will provide valuable guidance to anyone involved in delivering transformation.
