This presentation is answering the questions of chapter 11 from Jack Meredith's book,'Project Management', and is about how a project can and has to be controlled.
Project monitoring and control involves collecting data on project performance and using it to control the project and ensure it stays on track. Key aspects of monitoring include what to monitor (inputs, outputs, time, costs, quality), when to monitor (regularly and at milestones), and how (meetings, reports, Earned Value Analysis). Earned Value Analysis compares the budgeted cost of work performed, actual cost of work performed, and budgeted cost of work scheduled to calculate cost and schedule variances, helping project managers identify issues. Other techniques for monitoring and control include critical ratios and re-planning as needed to correct deviations from the project plan.
The document provides information about a group of companies called iC group that provides engineering and technical solutions. It offers services such as project planning, management, monitoring, surveys and consulting for complex engineering projects internationally. It has offices in several European countries and over 360 employees. It takes an integrative and innovative approach to projects considering all relevant factors. It has expertise in various technical fields including buildings, transport, environment and water.
Financial planning involves managing one's finances through proper asset allocation to meet financial goals over time. Asset allocation involves investing a predefined percentage of savings across different asset classes like equity, debt, gold, etc. for diversification and risk management. One should determine their financial goals, risk profile, and current financial situation to develop an appropriate asset allocation strategy tailored to their needs. Regular financial planning and reviews are necessary to achieve financial health and sustainable wealth creation.
This document discusses monitoring and controlling projects. It outlines three scenarios for projects: when they go as planned, when there are changes from stakeholders, and when risks occur. When projects go as planned, the project manager follows the plan, do, check, act cycle to monitor progress. When changes are requested, an integrated change management process is followed, involving change requests, a change control board, and adjusting baselines. Risks can also lead to change requests if their impacts require action. The overall goal is for the project manager to control changes and maintain the project plan.

An ideal situation would be one where miners continue to keep refined metal production growth under check while demand recovers to comfortable levels.
Ancient Indian texts from 1200-1400 AD describe a process for producing zinc through heating calamine ore with charcoal in a covered crucible fitted with a condenser. The zinc vapor produced at around 1000°C would travel down the condenser where it would cool and be collected as metallic zinc, in a process similar to modern retort furnaces used today at the Zawar mines in Rajasthan, India.
The document describes the process for recycling scrap automotive lead acid batteries. Batteries are cut apart, with polypropylene pieces collected and washed for resale. Lead components are cleaned and smelted in furnaces, with molten lead poured into ingots for reuse in new batteries. Sulfuric acid is neutralized into water or processed into sodium sulfate for industrial uses. Lead smelting processes use equipment like blast furnaces or rotary kilns. A schematic flow sheet shows the recycling plant design, which can process 35,000 tons of batteries annually to produce 9,000 tons of lead ingots.
The document outlines The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership which are modeling the way, inspiring a shared vision, challenging the process, enabling others to act, and encouraging the heart.

Zinc is one of the strategic non-ferrous metal next only to Aluminium and Copper. It plays a very important role in country’s economy and development. It finds use in applications like galvanizing of iron and steel; die-casting alloys, brasses, dry cells, agriculture, chemicals, pharmaceuticals etc., with industrial development in India use of zinc has increased considerably, however, specific consumption is much lower as compared to other developing countries.
The most important raw material for the production of zinc is the sulphide ore from which zinc is extracted either through pyro-metallurgical route or through hydro metallurgical – Roast – Leach – Electrowin (RLE) route. At present nearly 80 - 85% of the world’s production of primary zinc is through hydrometallurgical route, the balance is through pyro – metallurgical route.
Zinc’s largest use is in corrosion protection. Galvanising is the main method of protection against corrosion of steel, i.e. the steel is coated with a layer of zinc in order to protect it from decay.
Brasses are alloys of copper and zinc, and they have good mechanical properties and good corrosion resistance.
Diecastings are precision castings that can be mass-produced. Rolled zinc is used for architectural and building applications, and for dry cell batteries. Zinc oxide has its main use in tyres and rubber products. Many other zinc chemicals are used in a wide range of applications.
The most commonly used non-ferrous metals are aluminium, copper, lead, and zinc. Millions of tonnes of nonferrous scrap are recovered annually and used by smelters, refiners, ingot makers, foundries, and other manufacturers. Secondary materials are essential to the industry’s survival because even new metals often require the combined use of recycled materials.
The document discusses essentials of good project management. It provides 6 traits of an effective project leader: vision, ability to navigate unexplored paths, managing both success and failure, courage to make decisions, nobility in management, and integrity. It also outlines steps for a successful project including having a professional team, well-designed project plan, innovation, and open-minded problem solving. Project monitoring tools like S-curves are also presented to track progress against targets.

The document discusses zinc extraction processes. There are two main categories of processes: pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical. Approximately 80% of the world's zinc is produced via hydrometallurgical processes like the roast-leach-electrowin process. This process involves roasting zinc sulfide concentrate to produce zinc oxide, which is then leached and electrowon to extract zinc metal. An alternative is the pressure leach process, which combines roasting and leaching into a single step to produce zinc sulfate solution for electrowinning.
The document provides details about the execution of a copper plant project in India. Key points:
1) The Birla group commissioned consultants to prepare a feasibility study and select a site for a new integrated copper plant in India. Dahej, Gujarat was selected as the site.
2) Outokumpu flash smelting technology was selected for the copper smelter and Southwire for the continuous cast copper rod plant.
3) Measures to fast track the rod plant included separate engineering, procurement, and construction packages for certain units and staggered equipment supply.
4) Commissioning of the rod plant was completed ahead of schedule in March 1997 compared to the original target of September 1997.
The document discusses the benefits of meditation for reducing stress and anxiety. Regular meditation practice can help calm the mind and body by lowering heart rate and blood pressure.

The smelter's design and implementation in two phases is described in detail. It is scheduled to be commissioned by early 1991.
The document provides an overview of the zinc metal industry in India. It discusses India's heritage in zinc production dating back to Vedic times. It then covers various topics related to the current state of the industry such as the major end uses of zinc, sectoral consumption trends in India and worldwide, the growth of production in India, key mines and reserves, smelting capacities and production levels, demand and supply projections, drivers of future growth, cash costs, and the roles of major companies HZL and BZL. The future outlook is that India's self-sufficiency in zinc production will rise but additional capacity will still be needed longer term. MECON has played a significant role in developing various zinc plants in India.
