Set of interrelated actions and

activities performed to create a

pre-specified product,service or
result.PMP have Inputs and outputs
Performed by the project teamwith
stakeholder interaction, generally fall into
1 of 2 major categories:
Ensures effective flowof the project
throughout its life cycle.
Specifty
and create the projects product
is an integrative undertaking that
and
connected with the other procces to
facilitate coordination
Processes performed to
define a new project or new phase.
Required to establish the
scope of the project, refine the
objectives.
To complete the work
defined in the project.
Processes
reequired to track and regulate progress.
Finallize all activites across
all Process Gropus to formally close the
project or phase.
Common PMP Interactions
PM requires Monitoring and controlling to
interact with other procees groups. PMP
groups are linked by the outputs wich are
produced.Output of one process becomes
an input to another process o
PMP groups
5 Process groups have dependencies.
The process groups are not project life
cycles phases.PMP are shown in the
process group in wich most of the related
activities take place.
Intiating Process groups
The initial scope is defined andinitial
financial resources are commited. Internal
and external stakeholders who will
influence the overall outcome of the
project are identified. This information is
captured in the project charter and
stakeholder register.Project boundary
defined when a project is authorized. Key
purpose=Align stakeholders expectations
with project purpose.
Planning process groups
Consists of those processes performed to
establish the total scope of the effort,
define and redefine objectives, and
develop course of action to attain those
objectives.Use of repeated feedback
loops for additional analysis.
Executing process group
Those processses performed to complete
the work defined in the project
management plan to satisfy the project
specifications.This process involve
integrating activites of the project in
accordance with the project management
plan. The results of the analysisi can
trigger change requests.
Monitoring and controlling
process group
Consist of those processes required to
reviewthe progress, performance of
project, and initiate corresponding
changhes. Involves:
a)Controlling changes and correct.
b)Monitoring the ongoing project activities
against the PMP.
c)Influencing the factors that could
integrate change control
Closing
Processes performed to conclude alll
activities across the PMP groups to
formally complete the project.
This process group can establish the
premature closure of the project.
Proj ect information
Data and information collected,
analyzed, transformed,and distributes in
various formats to projcet teammembers
and other stakeholders.That data are:
Observations
and measurements identified during
activities.
Performance data collected fromvarious
controlling processes.
Work performance reports.- The physical
or electronic representation of work
performance information compiled in
project documents.
Role of knowledge areas
47 project management processes are
grouped in 10 separate Knowledge
areas.Which are:
Integration,Scope,Time,Cost,Quality,Human
resource,Communications,Risk,Procurement,Sakeholders.
