The QIPPS difference
What can QIPPS do for your organisation?
In its simplest form, QIPPS is a project planning and evaluation template that facilitates a consistent and structured approach to project management. However QIPPS is much more than just a template. It provides a platform to capture organisational knowledge, work with external partners, develop skills in writing project plans, and coordinate and track projects. QIPPS also supports quality improvement practices.Manage information – capture, store and share your projects in one central location.
