Project management involves planning, organizing, and managing resources to successfully complete specific business goals within constraints of time, cost and scope. The project life cycle includes initiation, planning, execution, monitoring/control and completion phases. Key aspects that must be managed include defining objectives, sequencing activities, evaluating techniques like PERT and Gantt charts, coordinating resources, and monitoring performance against the plan to control deviations.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

2. Project
 Short term efforts to create a specific business-related outcome
IS project management
 Directed effort to plan, organizes and manage resources to bring
about the successful achievement of specific IS goals

3. The triple constraints of project management:
TIME- The window of opportunity in which a
project must be completed to provide a benefit
to the organization.
COST
TIME
COST- The actual amount of resources,
SCOPE including cash and labor, that an organization
can commit to completing a project.
Triple constraints
of project SCOPE- Processes that ensure that the project
management
includes all the work required and only the
work required to complete the project
successfully.

10. 1. CARRY OUT THE PROJECT / PERFORM
2. PERFORM IT TO FULFILL PROJECT’S
REQUIREMENTS
3. COORDINATE PEOPLE & RESOURCES BASED ON
PLAN

11. • Monitoring – collecting,
recording, and reporting
information concerning project
performance that project manger
and others wish to know
• Controlling – uses data from
monitor activity to bring actual
performance to planned performance

12. • Why do we monitor?
 To detect and react appropriately to deviations and
changes to plans
• What do we monitor?
Men (human resources), Machines, Materials, Money,
Space
Time, Tasks, Quality/Technical Performance
• When to we monitor?
End of the project
Continuously
Regularly
Depends
•How do we monitor?
Meeting, Test, Etc.
