Project & Program Delivery (PPD)
Project and program delivery refers to the systematic process of executing initiatives to achieve specific objectives within an organization. Projects are temporary endeavors with defined goals, timelines, and resources aimed at delivering unique outcomes. Program delivery, on the other hand, involves managing a group of related projects under a unified strategy to achieve broader organizational goals.
