Point: what is a 'project': https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ms1iRuSdUcw?start=56&end=78 Point: what is a 'programme': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ms1iRuSdUcw&t=81s Point: "An Output or Product can be thought of as a specific thing that is delivered by the project. An example could be related to people speeding down a set of roads causing accidents. A project could be started to deliver a road sign showing a new speed limit (a Product). This project could install 100 new road signs showing the new speed limit in an area (its Output). Once all 100 signs are installed, the project would be complete and could close with all Outputs/Products from the project being successfully delivered. An Outcome is the result of the Output (potentially alongside other Outputs) and in our roads example, the Outcome would be that people travel slower on the roads. The signs from our project may (or may not) also have been supported by other outputs, such as speed awareness courses or fines but the Outcome is that people have slowed down. These things could have been delivered as part of a Programme to reduce speeding on those roads. When the Programme was started the goal was to reduce speeding. This could have been achieved in many ways (such as speed bumps, speed cameras) but the Outcome is to reduce speed (which is a result and not a ‘thing’ itself). In our example, it was decided that amongst other things one particular sub-project was stood up to install the new signs. Once achieved, the Outcome then leads to Benefits. A Benefit is the good thing which then comes from this, such as lives saved by the new lower speed on the roads. The Benefits are used to justify the investment into the Projects and Programmes." https://kerv.com/blog/kerv-consult/projects-vs-programmes-what-is-the-difference/
