APM PMQ - 1 - Life Cycles - 2 - Extended lifecycles

In this module, you’ll look beyond the delivery phase and explore the full extended lifecycle, including operation, maintenance, and eventual decommissioning. You’ll see how thinking beyond the project’s end point helps you make better decisions about benefits, sustainability, and long‑term value. This wider perspective is essential for PMQ, because it shows that projects don’t exist in isolation — they sit within a bigger organisational and product context. You’ll finish with a clearer view of how your project contributes to the whole lifecycle of a product or service.
