3 If we don t manage projects How do we know when they are done? How do we know if we succeeded? How will we do better next time? And in the middle, how will we know where we are and what it means?

6 Group discussion 1 Why do projects fail?
7 Common reasons projects fail Too many projects competing for the same resources Insufficient or inadequate resources Insufficient or inadequate business involvement Project team isolated from the business Team roles & responsibilities are unclear Poor communications Roadblocks are not resolved in a timely manner Scope changes are not managed properly [slide adapted from Lydia Milne, Foundations of Project Management, from Brandeis University Graduate Professional Studies.]
8 Project Management is PMBOK: A temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product, service or result. Temporary -- not on-going Does not imply short in duration Does not apply to the product or service Has a beginning and an end Unique product or service -- not a commodity or ongoing operation Can be a subset of a larger program or a stand-alone effort Requires coordination of tasks and resources Wysocki, Beck, & Crane: A project is a sequence of unique, complex, and connected activities having one goal or purpose and that must be completed by a specific time, within budget, and according to specifications. [slide adapted from Lydia Milne, Foundations of Project Management, from Brandeis University Graduate Professional Studies.]

24 Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) In Agile development, we would talk about a Feature Breakdown Structure (FBS), rather than a WBS
25 Gantt Charts Used to Model dependencies, milestones Helps visualize critical path Overall activity snapshot of project

29 Risk Management
30 Risks? So many things can go wrong What are the risks you worry about on your projects? Schedule? Wrong requirements? Stakeholder problems? Budget overruns?.
31 Levels of Risk Management Crisis management Fire fighting; address risks only after they become problems Fix on failure (important to fix but not crisis) Detect and react to risks quickly, but only after they have occurred Risk mitigation Plan ahead of time to provide resources to cover risks if they occur, but do nothing to eliminate them in the first place Prevention Implement and execute a plan as part of the project to identify risks and prevent them from becoming problems Elimination of root causes Identify and eliminate factors that make it possible for risks to exist at all. from Rapid Development by Steve McConnell, Microsoft Press c. 1996, pg. 84

33 K-J Technique 1. Question: What are the next priorities for the MCN website? 2. Divide into two groups 5 each 3. Now everyone write sticky notes: One note per priority 4. Stick notes to the wall so that you can see each other s priority notes 5. Group similar items. Help each other. Talk about what belongs where. Don t discuss the priorities, themselves, just how to group them. 6. Name the groups using the other sticky notes (2 nd color). Each group, even with one item, should have a label. If you don t like a label, change it, add your own, rearrange. Try, then discuss, until everyone is happy. 7. Now we re going to figure out priorities: 1. Write down individually the three most important items. 2. When you have your list, and only when you have your list, rank them. 3. Note your rankings on the group labels on the wall: Your top ranking gets three XXXs; 2 nd gets two XXs; last gets one X. 8. Count the votes. If you realize that two groups are the same, combine them now, and add their votes together. 9. When you have consensus on what you have voted, you are done. Source:
34 Agile Development A range of development methodologies based on the idea that projects are divided into short sequences sprints Commonly, index cards or similar medium used to note feature requests, requirements Next sprint is derived from which features matter most, that can be delivered in the sprint (usually defined as 1-3 months) Goal is to put working tools into people s hands quickly for feedback and learning, rather than get to the end of a two year project and discover that it no longer makes sense
35 Agile Core Values Delivering value over meeting constraints Leading Team over Managing Constraints Adapting to Change over Conforming to Plans
36 Closing Processes At JWA, for web development projects, we require the following deliverables before we will accept a project as done : Code must be checked into a source control repository (CVS, Subversion, etc.) and/or be available as an AWS AMI Documentation must be available, usually via wiki We are able to successfully check out the code, and by following the documentation, install it on our site.
37 Final tests run Contracts closed Project completed Then Lessons Learned And everything archived Lessons Learned
38 Some good tools The traditional project management information system: MS Word MS Excel MS Outlook MS Project note that MS Project, in and of itself, is not a PMIS MS Visio An online hosted service with similar capabilities: Zoho:
