Project management is to balance:


• Competing demands for scope, time,
cost, risk, and quality
• Stakeholders with differing needs and
expectations
• Identified requirements

*Scope: the sum of the products and


services to be provided as a project

Project Management
Processes
• Initiating
• Planning
• Executing
• Monitoring and Controlling
• Closing
Project Management Knowledge
draws on 9 areas:
• Integration
• Scope
• Time
• Cost
• Quality
• Procurement
• Human Resources • Communications
• Risk Management
Project Management
unique focus:
• shaped by goals, resources and
schedule of each project

• VALUE of that focus is proved by


rapid, worldwide growth of PM
–As a recognized and strategic
organizational competence
–As a subject for training and
education
–As a career path
The Context of Project Management
– Project Attributes
• Time Frame
• Purpose (to provide value!)
• Ownership
• Resources (the triple constraint)
• Roles
– Project Manager
– Project Sponsor
– SME (domain & technical)
• Risk & Assumptions
• Interdependent Tasks
• Planned Organizational Change
• Operate in Environments Larger than the Project
Itself
In Times of Change….

The Project Life Cycle and IT


Development
• Project Life Cycle (PLC)
– A collection of logical stages or phases that maps
the life of a project from its beginning to its end in
order to define, build and deliver the product of
the project – i.e., the information system

• Projects are divided into phases to increase


manageability and reduce risk
– Phase exits, stage gates, or kill points are decision
points at the end of each phase to evaluate
performance, correct problems or cancel the
project
– Fast tracking is the overlapping of phases to
reduce the project’s schedule
• Can be risky!
Systems Development Life
Cycle
(SDLC)
• Represents the sequential phases or stages an
information system follows throughout its useful life
• Useful for understanding the development of the
project’s largest work product – the application
system
• Phases/Stages – Planning
– Analysis
– Design
– Implementation
– Maintenance and Support

Systems Development

Life Cycle (SDLC)


The Relationship Between the
PLC and the SDLC
• The systems development life cycle
(SDLC) becomes part of the project life
cycle (PLC).
– The PLC focuses on the project
management phases, processes, tools and
techniques for effectively managing the
project.
– The SDLC focuses on the software
engineering phases, processes, tools and
techniques for building and/or
implementing the IT solution.
The Relationship Between the
PLC & SDLC
Putting the SDLC into Practice
• Structured Approach to Systems
Development
–Waterfall Method

• Rapid Applications Development (RAD)


–Prototyping
–Spiral Development
–Extreme Programming
The Project Management Body of
Knowledge (PMBOK®)
• The Guide to the Project Management
Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide)
documents 9 project management
knowledge areas
• The PMBOK® Guide is published and
maintained by the Project
Management Institute (PMI).
–http://www.pmi.org
The Project Management Body of
Knowledge (PMBOK®)
• PMI provides a certification in project
management called the Project
Management Professional (PMP) that
many people today believe will be as
relevant as a CPA certification.

• PMP certification requires that you


pass a PMP certification exam to
demonstrate a level of understanding
about project management, as well as
satisfy education and experience
requirements, and agree to a
professional code of conduct.
PMBOK® Knowledge Areas
1. Project Integration Management
2. Project Scope Management
3. Project Time Management
4. Project Cost Management
5. Project Quality Management
6. Project Human Resources Management
7. Project Communications Management
8. Project Risk Management
