Introduction to Project Management Avneet Mathur

What is a Project? A project is a temporary endeavor undertaken to produce a unique product or service Temporary – Definitive beginning and end Unique – New undertaking, unfamiliar ground Temporary Unique Characteristics of Projects

Project Success Customer Requirements satisfied/exceeded Completed within allocated time frame Completed within allocated budget Accepted by the customer

Project Failure Scope Creep Poor Requirements Gathering Unrealistic planning and scheduling Lack of resources

What is Project Management Project Management is the application of skills, knowledge, tools and techniques to meet the needs and expectations of stakeholders for a project. The purpose of project management is prediction and prevention, NOT recognition and reaction

Triple Contraint Quality Scope Time Cost

Triple Contraint Increased Scope = increased time + increased cost Tight Time = increased costs + reduced scope Tight Budget = increased time + reduced scope.

Key Areas of Project Management Scope Management Issue Management Cost Management Quality Management Communications Management Risk Management Change Control Management

Scope Management Primarily it is the definition and control of what IS and IS NOT included in the project.

Issue Management Issues are restraints to accomplishing the deliverables of the project. Typically identified throughout the project and logged and tracked through resolution. Rope not thick Issue… already impacting the cost, time or quality

Cost Management This process is required to ensure the project is completed within the approved budget and includes: Resources people equipment materials Quantities Budget

Quality Management Quality Management is the process that insure the project will meet the needs “conformance to requirements” - Crosby “fitness for use” - Juran “the totality of characteristics of an entity that bear on its ability to satisfy stated and implied need’ - ISO 8402:1994

Communications Management This process is necessary to ensure timely and appropriate generation, collection, dissemination, and storage of project information

Risk Management Risk identification and mitigation strategy Risk update and tracking Tree – location, accessibility, ownership Weather Risk… POTENTIAL negative impact to project

Change Control Management Define how changes to the project scope will be executed Scope Change Schedule changes Technical Specification Changes All changes require collaboration and buy in via the project sponsor’s signature prior to implementation of the changes

Project Life Cycle Initiation Phase Definition Phase Planning Phase Implementation Phase Deployment Phase Closing Phase

Initiation Phase Define the need Return on Investment Analysis Make or Buy Decision Budget Development

Definition Phase Determine goals, scope and project constraints Identify members and their roles Define communication channels, methods, frequency and content Risk management planning

Planning Phase Resource Planning Work Breakdown Structure Project Schedule Development Quality Assurance Plan

Work Breakdown Structure For defining and organizing the total scope of a project First two levels - define a set of planned outcomes that collectively and exclusively represent 100% of the project scope. Subsequent levels - represent 100% of the scope of their parent node

Implementation Phase Execute project plan and accomplish project goals Training Plan System Build Quality Assurance

Deployment Phase User Training Production Review Start Using

Closing Phase Contractual Closeout Post Production Transition Lessons Learned

Project Management Tools PERT Chart- designed to analyze and represent the tasks involved in completing a given project Gantt Chart - popular type of bar chart that illustrates a project schedule

Role of a Project Manager Process Responsibilities People Responsibilities Project issues Disseminating project information Mitigating project risk Quality Managing scope Metrics Managing the overall work plan Implementing standard processes Establishing leadership skills Setting expectations Team building Communicator skills
