What’s the deal? Well, Programming defines the project’s objectives, scope, and deliverables, as well as outlining the sequence of activities required for its successful completion. Phasing, on the other hand, focuses on breaking down the project into manageable phases or stages, each with its own set of tasks, timelines, and dependencies. Together, HORDE ensures that resources are efficiently allocated, risks are identified and mitigated, and stakeholders are kept informed throughout the project lifecycle.
