Vendors see their own installation and the device reference they need to build it: device types, setup guides and models. Everything else stays with Aigna.

PRINCE2
A method for running a project in managed stages, from PeopleCert.
- How Keia relates
- Companion: phases, gates and lessons on the record
- Which version
- PRINCE2 7 (2023), now called PRINCE2 Project Management (Version 7): seven principles, seven practices (called themes before version 7) and seven processes, with people at the centre.
How the ideas map
Each Keia idea, the PRINCE2 principles and practices it serves, and what Keia adds.
| Keia idea | PRINCE2 principles and practices | What Keia adds |
|---|---|---|
| Start from the building | Principle: focus on products. Practices: plans, quality | The products are real spaces and units, each with a build sheet; quality is checked against the space type and the setup guide, unit by unit |
| Capture, don't ask | Practice: progress | Progress is read from the work: units verified, phases against their baseline |
| Answer first | Principles: manage by stages, manage by exception | Each phase ends at a gate. A project opens with three lights and what is stuck, so the exception is the first thing anyone reads |
| Own it, hand it on | Principle: define roles, responsibilities and relationships. Practices: organizing, risk, issues | One named owner per task, risk and issue; vendors are peers in the record, scoped to the job |
| Learn as you go | Principle: learn from experience | Lessons at close become proposals to the playbook, so the next project starts with them |
Use your normal process here
- Business justification and the business case
- Directing a project: the board's decisions and authorisations
- Setting tolerances, and exception reports to the board
- Starting up and initiating a project
Words side by side
| Keia says | PRINCE2 says |
|---|---|
| Phase | Stage |
| Gate | Stage boundary |
| Hand to (a peer, with the record) | Escalate (to the level with authority, when a tolerance would be exceeded) |
| Playbook | Tailoring the method to the project |
