New resources for the successful management of public sector projects — Governance Frameworks for Public Project Development and Estimation and Public-Sector Project Management: Meeting the Challenges and Achieving Results

Governance Frameworks... includes a thorough investigation into theoretical perspectives and theories mainly from economy and social sciences. Implementation of governance frameworks represents a potential for considerable savings and added value by making cost estimation and time planning more effective.

Public-Sector Project Management... covers one of the largest gaps in project management literature: the government or public sector, an environment characterised by limited resources, political and media oversight, overt opposition, complex sets of rules and processes, and unclear goals and outcomes. The unique challenges of managing projects in the public sector are described and tools and templates for public-sector managers provided.
