The document discusses the importance of developing a stakeholder register at the project initiation stage. The stakeholder register defines the key stakeholders, along with their expectations. It also includes a RACI matrix that details each stakeholder's responsibilities, who is accountable, who needs to be consulted, and who needs to be informed. The RACI matrix helps organize who does what on the project. Both the project charter and stakeholder register are presented to decision makers to determine if the project should proceed.
This document outlines a project initiation checklist to ensure a project is properly defined before proceeding to the planning stage. The checklist includes verifying that objectives and goals are clear and SMART, scope is well-defined, stakeholders are identified, performance targets and constraints are documented, and the project and project manager have been authorized. Going through this checklist helps provide confidence that the project is ready to move forward in the planning process.
This document provides an overview of what a logical framework is and how it can be used for development projects. It defines key components of a project including its purpose, objectives, activities, and resources. The logical framework is described as a grid that logically sequences these components and helps guide the project team. It also rationalizes how resources will lead to achieving the project's purpose. The document outlines the steps for developing a logical framework, including identifying problems, objectives, activities, and indicators. It distinguishes assumptions from risks and explains how objectively verifiable indicators are important for measurement.
This document provides tips for effectively managing projects. It recommends that project managers hold weekly group meetings to keep all team members informed of the project's status. It also stresses the importance of communication among team members, as some tasks depend on the completion of others. It advises avoiding absences when possible to prevent imbalances in the project schedule. Additionally, it suggests having a "Plan B" alternative in case parts of the initial plan cannot be executed. Project managers should also help the team manage their time, costs, quality, human resources, and scope to deliver the project on schedule and within budget while meeting client expectations. Finally, the document notes that the closure phase is when a project is formally concluded and a report of its success
Project management is about planning, controlling, and making decisions about projects.
Projects have a definite beginning and end.
Project management uses tools and techniques to manage the project so that it meets the requirements, is completed on time, within budget and to the required quality.
With all projects, there will be the risk that something will not go according to plan.
Examples of risk include:
• delays in recruitment of suitable staff
• computer breakdowns
• major disruptions in community e.g funerals
• lack of cooperation from other key stakeholders
• weather, wet season, cyclones
• poorly designed model of service delivery

A project is a temporary endeavor to create a unique product, service, or result through the application of processes, methods, knowledge, skills, and experience. The goals of project management are to maximize return on investment by completing the project on time, within budget, and within scope while achieving quality standards. A project manager is responsible for setting realistic boundaries for a project and leading the team to complete the project within the approved boundaries according to principles of project management.
Program implementation refers to carrying out proposed activities and interventions in practice to achieve planned objectives and results. It depends on factors like an organized project team and monitoring progress and spending. Overall management is led by a project manager from the lead partner, who must have an efficient system and remain flexible to current needs and changes from initial plans, while still delivering quality results agreed upon with partners.
The document outlines the 6 phases of a project implementation process:
1. Project planning phase involves defining objectives, timelines, risks and organizing project teams.
2. Project design phase involves reviewing requirements, creating system designs and test plans.
3. Build and unit test phase involves developing applications, installing systems and executing unit tests.
4. Integrated test phase involves creating test plans, executing tests and providing test status reports.
5. Training and go-live phase involves creating training plans, dress rehearsals and go-live plans.
6. Close out phase involves evaluating the project, documenting lessons learned and closing out the project.

Project management is a practical process that involves the use of specific skills and techniques to complete organizational projects. Generally, there are five phases of project management that cover all areas of a project from conception to completion. The steps include initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and controlling, and closing.
Project initiation is the beginning of the project. This phase typically involves developing the task's overall scope and objective, alongside conducting a feasibility study. Project managers and their teams also prepare a project charter that covers all the project's essential issues.
Next is project planning. This phase involves determining all the other essential steps required to carry out the task. During this stage, project managers also decide the time and budget needed to complete each aspect of the plan. They will also assign team members to oversee the different tasks at this point.
Project execution is the next phase. Here, project members and their teams implement the various steps outlined during the planning process. Project managers also monitor and control the task to ensure it stays on course. The final phase of project management involves finalizing and wrapping up all the stages of the project and delivering it to the customer.

Project Management-Concept & Case Study.pptxamit229530
The document discusses project management, outlining key elements and steps. It describes that project management involves planning, organizing, securing, and managing resources to achieve goals on time and within budget. Some main components are defining objectives, creating detailed plans, managing resources, monitoring progress, mitigating risks, and ensuring successful closure. Common project management steps are initiation, planning, execution, monitoring/controlling, and closing. The document also provides details on communication, stakeholder management, risk management, quality management, and other principles of effective project management.
A project is defined as a means of moving from a problem to a solution via a series of planned activities. It has a definite beginning and end and consists of multiple interconnected tasks. Successful project management requires thorough planning, control over resources and activities, and monitoring progress against the initial plan. It also depends on factors like clear goals, support from senior management, effective communication, and involvement of stakeholders. When projects go wrong, it is often due to poor planning, lack of control, unrealistic schedules or budgets, and failure to address risks.
The document discusses the key components and stages of a project development cycle. It begins by defining what constitutes a project and noting that it requires clear goals and planning. It then outlines the typical stages a project progresses through: 1) identification, 2) preparation, 3) appraisal, 4) presentation, 5) implementation, 6) monitoring, and 7) evaluation. Monitoring ensures the project stays on track by regularly measuring progress, while evaluation assesses the project's effectiveness once complete. The document emphasizes that monitoring and evaluation systems need to be established early in the project design.
The document provides an overview of software project management. It defines what constitutes a software project and discusses the need for software project management.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...ABHILASH DUTTA
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.
