3 Project Management Overview
4 What Is a Project? A project is a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product, service, or result. * A project ends when its objectives have been reached, or the project has been terminated. Projects can be large or small and take a short or long time to complete. Project managers work with project sponsors, project teams, and other people involved in projects to meet project goals. *PMI, A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide) (2004), p. 5. 4
5 Examples of IT Projects A help desk or technical worker replaces laptops for a small department. A small software development team adds a new feature to an internal software application. A college campus upgrades its technology infrastructure to provide wireless Internet access. 5
6 Project Attributes A project: Has a unique purpose. Is temporary. Is developed using progressive elaboration. Requires resources, often from various areas. Should have a primary customer or sponsor. The project sponsor usually provides the direction and funding for the project. Involves uncertainty. 6
7 The Triple Constraint Every project is constrained in different ways by its: Scope goals: What work will be done? Time goals: How long should it take to complete? Cost goals: What should it cost? It is the project manager s duty to balance these three often-competing goals. 7
8 What is Project Management? Project management is the application of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to project activities to meet project requirements. * *PMI, A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide) (2004), p. 8. 8
9 The Role of the Project Manager Job descriptions vary, but most include responsibilities such as planning, scheduling, coordinating, and working with people to achieve project goals. They should: Be comfortable with change. Understand the organizations they work in and with. Lead teams to accomplish project goals. 9
10 Suggested Skills for Project Managers Communication skills: Listens, persuades. Organizational skills: Plans, sets goals, analyzes. Team-building skills: Shows empathy, motivates, promotes esprit de corps. Leadership skills: Sets examples, provides vision (big picture), delegates, positive, energetic. Coping skills: Flexible, creative, patient, persistent. Technology skills: Experience, project knowledge. 10
11 Exercise Please identify the Characteristics of effective and ineffective Project Managers? 10 min. of group discussion 5 min. of presentation 11
12 Most Significant Characteristics of Effective and Ineffective Project Managers Effective Project Managers Ineffective Project Managers Leadership by example Visionary Technically competent Decisive Good communicator Good motivator Stands up to upper management when necessary Supports team members Encourages new ideas Sets bad example Not self-assured Lacks technical expertise Poor communicator Poor motivator 12
13 Project Phases and the Project Life Cycle A project life cycle is a collection of project phases that defines: What work will be performed in each phase. What deliverables will be produced and when. Who is involved in each phase. How management will control and approve work produced in each phase. A deliverable is a product or service produced or provided as part of a project. 13
14 Phases of the Traditional Project Life Cycle 14
15 Level of Activity and Overlap of Process Groups Over Time (F3-1) 15
16 Project Integration Management Processes Develop the project charter: Work with stakeholders to create the document that formally authorizes a project the charter. Develop the preliminary project scope statement: Work with stakeholders, especially users of the project s products, services, or results, to develop the high-level scope requirements and create a preliminary project scope statement. Develop the project management plan: Coordinate all planning efforts to create a consistent, coherent document the project management plan. 16
17 Project Charters After deciding what project to work on, it is important to let the rest of the organization know. A project charter is a document that formally recognizes the existence of a project and provides direction on the project s objectives and management. Key project stakeholders should sign a project charter to acknowledge agreement on the need and intent of the project; a signed charter is a key output of project integration management. 17

20 Project Integration Management Processes (cont d) Direct and manage project execution: Carry out the project management plan by performing the activities included in it. Monitor and control the project work: Oversee project work to meet the performance objectives of the project. Perform integrated change control: Coordinate changes that affect the project s deliverables and organizational process assets. Close the project: Finalize all project activities to formally close the project. 20
21 Project Management Plans A project management plan is a document used to coordinate all project planning documents and help guide a project s execution and control. Plans created in the other knowledge areas are subsidiary parts of the overall project management plan. 21

26 Coordinating Planning and Execution Project planning and execution are intertwined and inseparable activities. Those who will do the work should help to plan the work. Project managers must solicit input from the team to develop realistic plans. 26
27 Monitoring and Controlling Project Work Changes are inevitable on most projects, so it s important to develop and follow a process to monitor and control changes. Monitoring project work includes collecting, measuring, and disseminating performance information. Two important outputs of monitoring and controlling project work include recommended corrective and preventive actions. 27
28 Sample Template for a Monthly Progress Report 28
29 Closing Projects To close a project, you must finalize all activities and transfer the completed or cancelled work to the appropriate people. Main outputs include: Administrative closure procedures. Contract closure procedures. Final products, services, or results. Organizational process asset updates. 29
30 Final Project Documentation Items 30
31 Lessons Learned Reports The project manager and project team members should each prepare a lessons-learned report. A reflective statement that documents important things an individual learned from working on the project. The project manager often combines information from all of the lessons-learned reports into a project summary report. 31
32 Project Scope Management
33 What is Project Scope Management? Scope refers to all the work involved in creating the products of the project and the processes used to create them. A deliverable is a product produced as part of a project, such as hardware or software, planning documents, or meeting minutes. Project scope management includes the processes involved in defining and controlling what is or is not included in a project. 33
34 Project Scope Management Processes Scope planning: Deciding how the scope will be defined, verified, and controlled. Scope definition: Reviewing the project charter and preliminary scope statement and adding more information as requirements are developed and change requests are approved. Creating the WBS: Subdividing the major project deliverables into smaller, more manageable components. Scope verification: Formalizing acceptance of the project scope. Scope control: Controlling changes to project scope. 34
35 Scope Planning and the Scope Management Plan The scope management plan is a document that includes descriptions of how the team will prepare the project scope statement, create the WBS, verify completion of the project deliverables, and control requests for changes to the project scope. Key inputs include the project charter, preliminary scope statement, and project management plan. 35
36 Preliminary Scope Statements A scope statement is a document used to develop and confirm a common understanding of the project scope. It is an important tool for preventing scope creep: The tendency for project scope to keep getting bigger. A good practice is to develop a preliminary or initial scope statement during project initiation and a more detailed scope statement as the project progresses. 36
37 Contents of a Preliminary Scope Statement Project objectives Product or service requirements and characteristics Project boundaries Deliverables Product acceptance criteria Project assumptions and constraints Organizational structure for the project Initial list of defined risks Summary of schedule milestones Rough order of magnitude cost estimate Configuration management requirements Description of approval requirements 37
38 Scope Definition and the Project Scope Statement The preliminary scope statement, project charter, organizational process assets, and approved change requests provide a basis for creating the project scope statement. As time progresses, the scope of a project should become clearer and more specific. 38
39 Further Defining Project Scope 39
40 Creating the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) A WBS is a deliverable-oriented grouping of the work involved in a project that defines the total scope of the project. A WBS is a foundation document that provides the basis for planning and managing project schedules, costs, resources, and changes. Decomposition is subdividing project deliverables into smaller pieces. 40
41 Approaches to Developing WBSs Guidelines: Some organizations, such as the DOD, provide guidelines for preparing WBSs. Analogy approach: Review WBSs of similar projects and tailor to your project. Top-down approach: Start with the largest items of the project and break them down. Bottom-up approach: Start with the specific tasks and roll them up. Mind-mapping approach: Write tasks in a non-linear, branching format and then create the WBS structure. 41

48 The WBS Dictionary and Scope Baseline Many WBS tasks are vague and must be explained in more detail so people know what to do and can estimate how long the work will take and what it will cost. A WBS dictionary is a document that describes detailed information about each WBS item. The approved project scope statement and its WBS and WBS dictionary form the scope baseline, which is used to measure performance in meeting project scope goals. 48
49 Advice for Creating a WBS and WBS Dictionary* A unit of work should appear in only one place in the WBS. The work content of a WBS item is the sum of the WBS items below it. A WBS item is the responsibility of only one individual, even though many people may be working on it. The WBS must be consistent with the way in which work is actually going to be performed; it should serve the project team first, and other purposes only if practical. *Cleland, David I., Project Management: Strategic Design and Implementation, 2 nd edition (New York: McGraw-Hill 1994). 49
50 Advice for Creating a WBS and WBS Dictionary (cont d)* Project team members should be involved in developing the WBS to ensure consistency and buy-in. Each WBS item must be documented in a WBS dictionary to ensure accurate understanding of the scope of work that is included and not included in that item. The WBS must be a flexible tool to accommodate inevitable changes while properly maintaining control of the work content in the project according to the scope statement. *Cleland, David I., Project Management: Strategic Design and Implementation, 2 nd edition (New York: McGraw-Hill 1994). 50
51 Scope Control Scope control involves controlling changes to the project scope. Goals of scope control are to: Influence the factors that cause scope changes. Ensure changes are processed according to procedures developed as part of integrated change control. Manage changes when they occur. Variance is the difference between planned and actual performance. 51
52 Project Time Management
53 Project Time Management Processes Activity definition: Identifying the specific activities that the project team members and stakeholders must perform to produce the project deliverables. Activity sequencing: Identifying and documenting the relationships between project activities. Activity resource estimating: Estimating how many resources a project team should use to perform project activities. Activity duration estimating: Estimating the number of work periods that are needed to complete individual activities. Schedule development: Analyzing activity sequences, activity resource estimates, and activity duration estimates to create the project schedule. Schedule control: Controlling and managing changes to the project schedule. 53
54 Activity Definition An activity or task is an element of work normally found on the WBS that has an expected duration, a cost, and resource requirements. Project schedules grow out of the basic documents that initiate a project. The project charter includes start and end dates and budget information. The scope statement and WBS help define what will be done. Activity definition involves developing a more detailed WBS and supporting explanations to understand all the work to be done, so you can develop realistic cost and duration estimates. 54
55 Activity Lists and Attributes An activity list is a tabulation of activities to be included on a project schedule. The list should include: The activity name An activity identifier or number A brief description of the activity Activity attributes provide more information about each activity, such as predecessors, successors, logical relationships, leads and lags, resource requirements, constraints, imposed dates, and assumptions related to the activity. 55
56 Milestones A milestone is a significant event that normally has no duration. It often takes several activities and a lot of work to complete a milestone. Milestones are useful tools for setting schedule goals and monitoring progress. Examples include completion and customer sign-off on key documents and completion of specific products. 56
57 Activity Sequencing Involves reviewing activities and determining dependencies. A dependency or relationship relates to the sequencing of project activities or tasks. You must determine dependencies in order to use critical path analysis. 57
58 Three Types of Dependencies Mandatory dependencies: Inherent in the nature of the work being performed on a project; sometimes referred to as hard logic. Discretionary dependencies: Defined by the project team; sometimes referred to as soft logic and should be used with care because they may limit later scheduling options. External dependencies: Involve relationships between project and non-project activities. 58
59 Network Diagrams Network diagrams are the preferred technique for showing activity sequencing. A network diagram is a schematic display of the logical relationships among, or sequencing of, project activities. Two main formats are the arrow and precedence diagramming methods. 59
60 Sample Activity-on-Arrow (AOA) Network Diagram for Project X 60
61 Arrow Diagramming Method (ADM) Also called activity-on-arrow (AOA) network diagram. Activities are represented by arrows. Nodes or circles are the starting and ending points of activities. Can only show finish-to-start dependencies. 61
62 Process for Creating AOA Diagrams 1. Find all of the activities that start at node 1. Draw their finish nodes and draw arrows between node 1 and those finish nodes. Put the activity letter or name and duration estimate on the associated arrow. 2. Continuing drawing the network diagram, working from left to right. Look for bursts and merges. A burst occurs when a single node is followed by two or more activities. A merge occurs when two or more nodes precede a single node. 3. Continue drawing the project network diagram until all activities that have dependencies are included in the diagram. 4. As a rule of thumb, all arrowheads should face toward the right, and no arrows should cross in an AOA network diagram. 62
63 Precedence Diagramming Method (PDM) Activities are represented by boxes. Arrows show relationships between activities. More popular than ADM method and used by project management software. Better at showing different types of dependencies. 63
64 Task Dependency Types 64
65 Sample PDM Network Diagram 65
66 Activity Resource Estimating Before estimating activity durations, you must have a good idea of the quantity and type of resources that will be assigned to each activity. Consider important issues in estimating resources: How difficult will it be to complete specific activities on this project? What is the organization s history in doing similar activities? Are the required resources available? 66
67 Activity Duration Estimating Duration includes the actual amount of time worked on an activity plus the elapsed time. Effort is the number of workdays or work hours required to complete a task. Effort does not normally equal duration. People doing the work should help create estimates, and an expert should review them. 67
68 Three-Point Estimates Instead of providing activity estimates as a discrete number, such as four weeks, it s often helpful to create a three-point estimate: An estimate that includes an optimistic, most likely, and pessimistic estimate, such as three weeks for the optimistic, four weeks for the most likely, and five weeks for the pessimistic estimate. Three-point estimates are needed for PERT estimates and Monte Carlo simulations. 68
69 Schedule Development Uses results of the other time management processes to determine the start and end dates of the project. Ultimate goal is to create a realistic project schedule that provides a basis for monitoring project progress for the time dimension of the project. Important tools and techniques include Gantt charts, critical path analysis, critical chain scheduling, and PERT analysis. 69
70 Gantt Charts Gantt charts provide a standard format for displaying project schedule information by listing project activities and their corresponding start and finish dates in a calendar format. Symbols include: Black diamonds: Milestones Thick black bars: Summary tasks Lighter horizontal bars: Durations of tasks Arrows: Dependencies between tasks 70
71 Gantt Chart for Project X Note: In Project 2003 darker bars are red to represent critical tasks. 71
72 Gantt Chart for Software Launch Project 72
73 Adding Milestones to Gantt Charts Many people like to focus on meeting milestones, especially for large projects. Milestones emphasize important events or accomplishments in projects. You typically create milestone by entering tasks that have a zero duration, or you can mark any task as a milestone. 73
74 SMART Criteria Milestones should be: Specific Measurable Assignable Realistic Time-framed 74
75 Sample Tracking Gantt Chart 75
76 Schedule Control Perform reality checks on schedules. Allow for contingencies. Don t plan for everyone to work at 100 percent capacity all the time. Hold progress meetings with stakeholders and be clear and honest in communicating schedule issues. 76
77 Schedule Control Goals are to know the status of the schedule, influence factors that cause schedule changes, determine that the schedule has changed, and manage changes when they occur. Tools and techniques include: Progress reports. A schedule change control system. Project management software, including schedule comparison charts, such as the tracking Gantt chart. Variance analysis, such as analyzing float or slack. Performance management, such as earned value (see Chapter 7). 77
78 Reality Checks on Scheduling Review the draft schedule or estimated completion date in the project charter. Prepare a more detailed schedule with the project team. Make sure the schedule is realistic and followed. Alert top management well in advance if there are schedule problems. 78
79 Using Software to Assist in Time Management Software for facilitating communication helps people exchange schedule-related information. Decision support models help analyze trade-offs that can be made. Project management software can help in various time management areas. 79

94 Specific Goals 2 Track and Control Changes Change to the work products under configuration management are tracked and controlled 94
95 Specific Practices 2.11 Track Change Requests Track change requests for the configuration items. Subpractices Initiate and record change requests in the change request database. Analyze the impact of changes and fixes proposed in the change requests. Changes are evaluated through activities that ensure that they are consistent with all technical and project requirements. Changes are evaluated for their impact beyond immediate project or contract requirements. Changes to an item used in multiple products can resolve an immediate issue while causing a problem in other applications. 95
96 Subpractices Specific Practices 2.11 Review change requests that will be addressed in the next baseline with those who will be affected by the changes and get their agreement. Record the disposition of each change request and the rationale for the decision, including success criteria, a brief action plan if appropriate, and needs met or unmet by the change. Perform the actions required in the disposition, and report the results to relevant stakeholders. Track the status of change requests to closure. 96
97 Specific Practices 2.12 Typical Work Product Change requests 97
98 Specific Practices 2.21 Control Configuration Items Control changes to the configuration items, includes tracking the configuration of each of the configuration items, approving a new configuration if necessary, and updating the baseline. Subpractices Control changes to configuration items throughout the life of the product. Obtain appropriate authorization before changed configuration items are entered into the configuration management system. authorization may come from the CCB, the project manager, or the customer. 98
99 Subpractices Specific Practices 2.22 Check in and check out configuration items from the configuration management system for incorporation of changes in a manner that maintains the correctness and integrity of the configuration items. Examples of check-in and check-out steps Confirming that the revisions are authorized Updating the configuration items Archiving the replaced baseline and retrieving the new baseline 99
100 Subpractices Specific Practices 2.22 Perform reviews to ensure that changes have not caused unintended effects on the baselines (e.g., ensure that the changes have not compromised the safety and/or security of the system). Record changes to configuration items and the reasons for the changes as appropriate. Changed configuration items are released after review and approval of configuration changes. Changes are not official until they are released. 100
