description This article argues for the use of the Project Implementation Profile (PIP) tool in managing non-governmental organization (NGO) projects. It applies the PIP to a project in the non-profit NGO sector and assesses the extent to which it provides project success assurance. The findings suggest that PIP can be used in this sector. Further work to refine the tool and integrate it with the Logical Framework is suggested.
