What is a Project ?
 Has a defined objective

 Requires integration of
knowledge and experience
from various organizations
When task(s),
How Temporary?
 Has a definite beginning and end, not an on-going effort
 Ceases when objectives have been attained
 Team is disbanded upon project completion
Unique?
 The product or service is different in some way from other
product or services
 Product characteristics are progressively elaborated
What is a Project ?
Project Characteristics
 Goal (measurable/verifiable) Oriented
 Finite duration with a beginning and end
 Uniqueness to a great extent and related uncertainties
 Coordinated undertaking of interrelated activities
 Performing the activities involve resources
 Resources cost money
How are Projects different from Operations?
– Create own charter,
organization,
– and goals
– Catalyst for change
– Unique product or
service
– Heterogeneous teams
– Start and end date
Semi-permanent
charter, organization,
and goals
Maintains status quo
Standard product or
service
Homogeneous teams
Ongoing
Projects Operations
 Poor communication
 Insufficient resource planning
 Unrealistic schedules & poor duration estimation
 Poor project requirements
 Lack of stakeholder buy-in & no accountability
 Undefined project success / closure criteria
 Unrealistic budgets
 No risk planning
 Lack of change control process
 Lack of executive support
 Resource attrition
 Lack of synchronization
Project Failure
 Executive management support
 User involvement (optimum)
 Realistic expectations
 Clear statement of requirements
 Proper documentation

Project Success
Project Life Cycle
• Each phase is marked by one or more tangible verification
work product referred to as deliverable
• The conclusion of a project phase is generally marked by a

or kill points

Project Management Philosophy
The “Golden Rule” of Project Management is three

-Plan
-Organize
-Control
Project Initiation
Project Initiation
 Conduct Project Selection Methods
 Define Scope
 Document Project Risks, Assumptions, and
Constraints
 Identify and Perform Stakeholder Analysis
 Develop Project Charter
 Obtain Project Charter Approval
Responsibilities
• Define goals, objective, milestones
• Determine requirements
• Determine ground rules and assumptions
• Identify time, cost and performance constraints
• Determine operating procedures, administrative policies
• Identify reporting requirements
Project Charter – Project Managers
Goals vs. Objective
Goals are broad Objectives are narrow
Goals are general intentions Objectives are precise
Goals are intangible Objectives are tangible
Goals are abstract Objectives are concrete
Goals can't be validated as is Objectives can be validated
Objectives are SMART
•Specific
•Measurable
•Assignable
•Realistic
•Time related
Expectations
Stakeholder
Shareholder
Employee
What is my role and the job/task specifications in this project?
What learning opportunity/new skill will I get from this project?
Organization
When can I get the product out?
What is the quantum of work involved?
How many people would this project need (skill level)?
What would be their utilization/availability on this project?
How much would the cost/ investment for resources be?
When can I get the product?
What are the features that exists (that I want eliminated now)?
What are the additional feature desired?
How much I would have to pay?
Customer
What is the company doing to minimize overheads & maximize profits?
What are the efforts and direction for new avenues of business this year?
How does this company compare with and stay ahead of competition?
Managing Stakeholder Expectations

Project Scope
What is the WORK we are supposed to do to
deliver the final service / product to the
customer?
Product Scope
The features and functionalities that categorize
a product or service
4 Commandments for Good Project Scope
Written
Well defined
Clearly understood
Achievable
1. Highest level: refers to the entire project
2. Second level: breaks the project into its major
sub- projects/phases
3. Third level:
 Identify the deliverables for each subproject/phase
 Identify the activities and tasks that are required to produce
each deliverables
 Lowest level breakup called work packages can be
scheduled, cost estimated, monitored and controlled
 Identifies track able units of work which are assigned to
individual members of the project team
Create Work Breakdown Structure
WBS Example
Schedule Management
 Create the Activity List
 State the Activity Relationships
 State the Resource Requirements
 Estimate the Activity Duration
 Create Project Schedule
Prepare Network Diagram
Project schedule network diagrams are schematic displays
of the project’s schedule activities and the logical
relationships among them, also referred to as
dependencies.
Precedence Diagramming Method (PDM)
Also known as Activity on Nodes (AON)
Arrow Diagramming Method (ADM)
Also known as Activity on Arrow (AOA)
Developing an
approximation of the costs
of the resources needed to
complete project activities.
Cost Estimating
Analogous estimating
Bottom Up Estimating
Parametric Estimating
Cost Estimating
Customer Relations
 Develop Communication
 Ensure Timely Participation
 Include the Customer on the
Project Team
 Develop Trust and Confidence

management plan to accomplish
the work defined in the project
scope statement.
Project Execution
 Expend effort and spend funds to accomplish the project objectives
 Staff, train, and manage the project team members assigned to the
project
 Obtain quotations, bids, offers, or proposals as appropriate
 Select sellers by choosing from among potential sellers

Major Activities
• Create, control, verify, and validate project deliverables
• Manage sellers
• Adapt approved changes into the project’s scope, plans, and
environment
• Establish and manage project communication channels, both
external and internal to the project team
• Collect project data and report cost, schedule, technical and quality
progress, and status information to facilitate forecasting
• Collect and document lessons learned, and implement approved
process improvement activities
Project Execution -
Major Activities (Cont)
Project Controlling
The Monitor and Control Project Work process is
performed to monitor project processes
associated with initiating, planning, executing,
and closing.
Project Controlling
• Data Collection & Status Reporting
• Project Monitoring & Tracking
• Earned Value Analysis
• Variance Analysis
Project Controlling
 Provides clear indication of progress
 Keeps everyone informed
 Encourages the addressing of
problems
 Provides credible completion
estimates
Benefits of Tracking the Project
Basic Elements of Control System
 A project plan: Scope, schedule, estimates
 A monitoring system which measures performance against
plan
 A reporting system which identifies deviations from the plan
 A system which communicates deviations to the right people
 Corrective actions
 Forecasting the project outcome
Elements of Schedule Control
 Establish the baseline (estimate)
Measure variation from baseline
Take corrective action
4 Key Questions to be asked
 Did the task start?
 If yes, on what date?
 What date will the task finish?
 If finished, on what date did it
finish?
Schedule Tracking
Project Closure
The Close Project process involves
performing the project closure portion of
the project management plan
Project Closure
 Obtain Client Acceptance
 Shut down project operations
 Create Project Closure Document
 Learn from the project experience – Lessons
Learned
 Release resources
 Handover to the Support / Operations Team
Project Closure – Major Activities
 A close out review should highlight both what
went right and what went wrong
Both are essential for continuous
improvement
Exploit the successes and identify the
elements which contributed to the success
Avoid the problems in the future and identify
processes that need to be defined,
redefined and improved
 Key Learning's can be valuable for the next
project
Perform a Closeout Review
 Less overall project cost
 Timely project completion
