PREPARING PROJECT WORKFLOW
A workflow is a collection of fixed tasks or sequences
performed to accomplish a business process according
to a set of predefined rules.
What is a Workflow?
• Identify your resources
• List out the tasks that should
be accomplished
• Find out who is accountable
for each step and assign roles
• Create a workflow diagram to
visualize the process
• Test the workflow you created
• Train your team on the new
workflow
• Arrange the new workflow
Steps to Createa Workflow
A project is generally a one off, time bound enterprise that
serves a very specific purpose and results in a very specific
outcome.
For example, a biannual large scale outdoor event is a
time bound project, serving a specified purpose and outcome.
When both the purpose and outcome have been reached, the
event is over for the year.
What is Project Management Workflow?
• Improves overall efficiency :- Workflow systems reduce
paper trails and keep everything in one centralized, easily
accessible place.
• Allows for collaboration :- The best project management
workflow systems have in-built social collaboration tools
that make communication easier and more cohesive.
• Makes reporting easier and more transparent :-
Workflow project management software has tools that
make reporting simpler, faster and more accurate.
• Keeps people connected :- Mobility is now the norm for
many work teams today. When your project
management workflow systems are mobile-friendly,
workers who are travelling, or off site, or telecommuting
can easily check up on project status and update their own.
