In this presentation we share information on how to map / integrated the PMBOK Guide Process Groups with a Project Life Cycle. The project life cycle can be a generic model or per the SUKAD CAM2P™ Model (The Customizable and Adaptable Methodology for Managing Projects™). We share this topic because it is a common area of confusion among PMPs and those studying the PMBOK Guide.

1. Integrating the Project Life Cycle with Process Groups
Project Management Method

2. Mapping the PMBOK® Guide
to a Project Life Cycle

3. The Project Life Cycle

4. First: there is the project life cycle
• From idea to closure … or
• From which ever point the organization
defines as start and end points
Project Life Cycle

5. Second: the project life cycle is
subdivided into phases (stages)
Idea
Project
Charter Handover
Final
Accept
Intermediate Phases
Pre-Project
Final
Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase N
Project Life Cycle
Study
Start-up

6. This is the project life cycle from the
SUKAD CAM2P™ Model
(the standard model with phases and stages)

9. There are five process groups

13. Process Groups Repeating

14. Notice the image from PMBOK

15. Process groups repeat in every phase

16. All together

17. Interactions of process groups and
knowledge areas
to project life cycle and stages

21. Another Way of Looking at
this integration

22. SUKAD CAM2P™ Project Life Span

23. Planning process group apply to the
whole project

24. Executing process group apply to the
whole project

25. Monitoring and controlling process
group apply to the whole project

26. All process groups apply to a typical
stage or phase as well
