7. Project Management Body of
Knowledge (PMBOK)
8/1/16 7
• PMBOK provides a
toolkit not a recipe
• A standard vs a
methodology
• The processes described in the
PMBOK® Guide are generally
accepted good practice that apply
to most projects most of the time

8. A Systems Approach to Project
Management
8/1/16 8
Project managers need to use systems thinking:
• Taking a holistic view of carrying out projects
within the context of the organization

Management

10. Laying the Foundation
8/1/16 10
• Module One lays the
foundation
• We will dive deeper in the
coming weeks
• Use Schwalbe and your
common sense to apply the
concepts to your model
projects

11. Scenario One – “To Build or Not to
Build”
8/1/16 11
• It’s always on a Friday
afternoon…
• Threat of BioTerrorism Event
• I was managing the primary Lab
System at CDC
• My CDC boss had a grand plan
• And the spotlight shone on me…

12. Scenario One – Basics
8/1/16 12
• Create a database for BT lab results
• Collect from 5 different labs (each with their
own systems and sample identification
processes)
• Develop interfaces for automated import from 5
systems
• Develop UI for manual input and review of data

13. Scenario One – Basics
8/1/16 13
• Reporting – Develop both detailed and summary reports
• Export – Develop ability to export data in multiple formats
• Ensure compliance with Select Agent security requirements

• Ensure compliance with CDC Certification and Authentication
process
(http://www2.cdc.gov/cdcup/library/process_guides/CDC_UP_Process_Guide_Cer

• Or make an argument to obtain a waiver

• M1-1 “The triple constraint affair”
• M1-2 “How would PMI rate my model project?”
• M1-3 Schwalbe Discussion Questions
• OPTIONAL - Developing Leaders: Learning From Others – Dr.
Stephen Thacker, former Division Director at CDC

So much of what we call management consists in
making it difficult for people to work
- Peter Drucker
Everything should be made as simple as possible,
but not simpler
- Albert Einstein
