What Is A Project?
Project
A Project is a temporary endeavour undertaken to
create a unique product, service or result.
End is reached when the objectives have been
achieved, or when the project is terminated
because its objectives will not or cannot be met,
or when the need for the project no longer exists.
Projects require project management.
17
Project Management
What is a Project Management?
Project management is the application of
knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to project
activities to meet the project requirements.
47 project management processes which logically
categorized into five Process Groups.
It is both a science and an art.
18
20
Types of PMO:
Supportive. Supportive PMOs provide a consultative role to projects
by supplying templates, best practices, training, access to
information and lessons learned from other projects.
Operations
Are organizational function performing the ongoing
execution of activities that produce the same product or
provide a repetitive service.
Are permanent endeavors to produce repetitive outputs,
with resources assigned to do basically the same set of
tasks according to the standards institutionalized in a
product life cycle.

Organizational Structure
Organizational structure is EEF which affect
the availability of resources and Influence how
30
Organizational Structure
Culture & Structure is EEF. so, a PM should understand
the differences that may affect a project as it will
have impact on the way the project is managed and
even its ultimate success.
Three major types of organizations Structure
1. Functional Structure
2. Projectized Structure
3. Matrix Structure:

Essential Terms
Progressive Elaboration
You dont know all of the characteristics
about a product or project when you begin.
Instead, they may be revisited often and
refined,
43
Essential Terms
Baseline
Baseline refers to the accepted and
approved plans & their related documents.
Baselines are prepared on triple constraints:
Scope (Quality), Time, Cost.
44
Essential Terms
Regulation
Official document that provides guidelines
that must be followed.
Issued by government or another official
organization.
Standard
A document approved by a recognised body
that provide a guidelines. It is not
mandatory.
45
Essential Terms
Policy
Organization policy is an asset.
Gives guidance to your action as per local
organization rule.
Save time later in the future by preventing
you from doing something your company
would frown upon.
PMs should follow company policy.
46
Essential Terms
Sellers.
Sellers, also called vendors, suppliers, or
contractors, are external companies that
inter into a contractual agreement to
provide components or services necessary
for the project.
Business partners.
Also external companies, but they have a
special relationship with the organization.
47
Essential Terms
Project Coordinator.
Weaker than a PM.
Can't make overall project decisions.
have some authority to reassign assign resources.
Found in weak matrix or functional organization.
Project Expeditor .
The weakest among all.
Staff assistant with little or no formal authority.
Do not have any authority of resources.
Found in a functional organization.

49
Stakeholders
Are persons or organizations who are actively
involved in the project or whose interests may be
positively or negatively affected by the performance
or completion of the project.
The project management team must:
- Identify both internal and external stakeholders.

Process
A process is a set of interrelated actions and
activities performed to achieve a pre-specified
product, result, or service.
47 unique processes composed of three
elements:
1.Inputs

3.Outputs
57
To Project Success
Select appropriate processes required to meet the
project objectives.

Organization
Important Issues:
Process groups are not
completely linear.
The scope is
progressively
elaborated, which
means that some
processes are
performed iteratively.

Integration Management
62
63
Integration Management
Integration process cover all project Phases.
Takes a high-level view of the project from start to finish.
Why using the word Integration? Changes made in any
one area of the project must be integrated into the rest
of the project.
The PM must prioritize different objectives that are
competing for time & resources & also keep the team
focused on completing the work.

resolution.
There are multiple methods for reaching a group
decision, Ex:

action.
Majority . Support from more than 50% of the
members of the group.
Plurality. The largest block in a group decides even if
a majority is not a achieved.
Dictatorship . One individual makes the decision for
the group.

management plan may be formal or informal, highly
detailed.
For example, the schedule management plan can
establish the following:
Project schedule model development, Level of accuracy.
Control thresholds, and Process descriptions.
Define Activities

produce the deliverables, WBS identifies the deliverables

It is an upgraded version of the critical path
method, which is a more practical approach to

Project Buffer
This buffer is placed between the last task and the project completion date
as a non-activity buffer.
Feeding Buffers
They are inserted between the last task on a non-critical chain and the

These buffers are kept alongside the critical chain to make sure that they
are available when they are required.

CRITICAL PATH VS CRITICAL CHAIN
The critical path method (CPM) is a popular approach to
project scheduling that considers the amount of float on

Cost Management Plan
The cost management plan is a component of the project
management plan and describes how the project costs will be
planned, structured, and controlled.
For example, the cost management plan can establish the
following:
- Units of measure.
- Level of accuracy
- Organizational procedures
- reporting formats

of the monetary resources needed to complete project
activities.

Reserve amount also called Contingency.

the amount of reserve being planned reflects the risk

Cost of Quality (COQ) (During Product life cycle)
Refers to all of the costs that are incurred to (prevent
defects) in products or costs that (result from defects)
in the products.
Also used in the quality planning process.

Cost Aggregation
Costs are estimated at an activity level, these estimates
should be aggregated to the work package level where
they will be measured, managed, and controlled during
the project.
Reserve Analysis
Related to risk.
Almost all projects maintain a financial reserve to
protect them against cost overrun.
How much they keep, how they track it vary from
project to another. These buffers go by various names
such as management reserve, and Contingency reserve.

Historical Relationship (Parametric Estimation)

Earned value management (EVM)
Its a method of performance measurement, it
integrates project scope, cost and schedule to help
measure project performance.
EVM monitor, three monitory values:
Planned value - Earned value - Actual cost
By EVM Project manager will know whether the project is:
ahead of / on / behind schedule
under / on / over budget

Planned Value (PV):

Exercise
Assume 4 equal sides, budget 200$ per side, schedule 1 side per
day. Finish 4 days & cost 800$.
Day1: side 1 complete, budget of 200$ spent.
Day2: side 2 started but not complete, expected budget 220$
Day3: side 2 complete, and half of side 3 completed but team left
early and only spent 140$

Forecasting.
EAC forecast for ETC work performed at the budgeted
rate. This EAC method Equation: EAC = AC + (BAC - EV)
EAC forecast for ETC work performed at the present
CPI Equation: EAC = BAC / CPI
EAC forecast for ETC work considering both SPI and
CPI factors. Equation:
EAC = AC + [(BAC - EV) / (CPI x SPI)]
232
Exercise
Answer
PV ; EV ; AC ;
CV= EV-AC
SV=EV-PV
CPI = EV/AC
SPI = EV/PV
234
Answer
PV = 100 + 100 + 100 + 100 = 400 k
EV = (10+15+15+10)=50 km * 100k = 500k
AC = 90 + 150 + 110 + 100 = 450 k
CV= EV-AC = 500 450 = 50
SV=EV-PV = 500 400 = 100

To-Complete Performance Index (TCPI)
Is a measure of the cost performance that is required to
be achieved with the remaining resources in order to
meet a specified management goal .
TCPI = (BAC-EV)/(BAC-AC)
TCPI = (BAC-EV)/(EAC-AC)
236
T&T
EAC=AC+[(BAC-EV)/(cumulative CPIX cumulative SPI], this
estimate introduce SPI as a factor in estimating EAC and
we can add a weighting value (80/20 or 50/50) between
SPI and CPI
To Complete Performance Index(TCPI)
If the BAC is no longer viable, the project manager develop a
forecast estimate at completion. Once its approved TCPI will
replace BAC.
