BSBPMG622 Program Governance Plan: CeBIT Australia Project

This assignment presents a Program Governance Plan developed for the CeBIT Australia event. The plan addresses key aspects of program governance, including defining roles and responsibilities within the program, determining financial and resource authorities, documenting decision-making processes, and establishing program records and configuration management. It also covers identifying compliance requirements and supporting program implementation. The plan follows a structured template and includes an executive summary, introduction, program description, objectives, outcomes, scope, activities, committee roles, program structure, reviews, finance, records management, and completion sign-offs. The student was required to apply program management principles to the CeBIT Australia case study, analyzing various sub-projects associated with the event, such as venue security, ticketing, stage management, and finance. The assessment emphasizes the importance of a well-defined governance structure to ensure the successful execution of the program.
