6. Understanding Project Management
In order to understand project management, one must begin with the
definition of a project. A project can be considered to be any series of
activities and tasks that:
Have a specific objective to be completed within certain specifications
Have defined start and end dates
Have funding limits (if applicable)
Limited or finite human and nonhuman resources (i.e., money, people,
equipment)
Are multifunctional (i.e., cut across several functional lines)
7. Definition of Project
It is one shot, time limited, goal directed, major undertaking,
requiring the commitment of varied skills and resources.
A Project is defined to be a task which has a definite beginning-
definite end time and which consists of several activities or jobs.
A Project generally exhibits most of the following conditions:
- It is unique.
- A Project is finite.
- Usually Complex
- A Project is Heterogeneous.
- Non-repetitive.
- Requires multiple resources from a finite resource pool.
- Limited resources in optimum manner.
8. Definition of Project
SMART PROJECT
S: Specific: Project should be targeting a specific aim or goal.
M: Measurable: It should be quantifiable.
A: Attainable: It should be attainable with available resources.
R: Realistic: It should be realistic in nature, dreaming is fine, but we
certainly cannot manage the dreams. We need some real things to
be managed.
T: Time limited: As mention earlier there is a fixed time limit for any
project.
Characteristics of Project: Fixed set of objectives, Team work, Life
cycle, Made to order, Multi skill staff requirement, Subcontracting,
Risk and Uncertainty
9. Developing a new product or service.
Effecting a change in structure, staffing, or style of an organization.
Designing a ne transportation vehicle.
Developing or acquiring a new or modified information system
Constructing a building or facility
Building a water system for a community.
Running a campaign for political office
Implementing a new business procedure or process.
Examples of projects include, but are not limited to:
10. Difference between process and project
Process Project
Repeat process or product New process or product
Several objectives One objective
On-going One shot-limited life
People are homogeneous More Heterogeneous
Systems in place Systems must be created
Performance, cost and time is
known
Performance, cost and time less
certain
Part of the line organization Outside of line organizations
Bastions (support) of established
practices
Violates (disturb) established
practices
11. Difference between process and project
Project Process
Repetition Non Repetitive Repetitive
Work force required Multi-skilled or very highly specialized for
short durations
Limited skills a huge learning
effect
Revenues No Revenues Revenues and profit / loss
Objectives Scope, performance, time, cost Profits generated, cost reduced,
quality of products or services
Equipment needed Special purpose equipment’s for a short
duration.
Some equipment’s are
continuously used
Subcontracting Essential, involves many subcontracting
agencies.
Generally avoids use of
subcontracting agencies.
Risk Very high risk as generally no chances of
recursion
Risk is less as chances of
improvement always there.
12. The Project Life Cycle
Whatis theprojectlifecycle?
The project life cycle includes the steps required for project managers
to successfully manage a project from start to finish. There are 5
phasestotheprojectlife cycle(also calledthe5 processgroups)
—initiating,planning, executing, monitoring/controlling, and closing.
• Project managers or the organization can divide projects into phases to
provide better management control with appropriate links to the ongoing
operations of the performing organization.
• Collectively, these phases are known as the project life cycle. Many
organizations identify a specific set of specific set of life cycles for use on
all of their projects.
13. Definition of Project Management:
Project management, on the other hand, involves project planning and
project monitoring and includes such items as:
Project planning
Definition of work requirements
Definition of quantity and quality of work
Definition of resources needed
Project monitoring
Tracking progress
Comparing actual outcome to predicted outcome
Analyzing impact
Making adjustments
14. Definition of Project Management:
Project Management: Project
management is the management
activities of planning, directing,
and controlling resources to
meet the technical, cost and time
constraints of a project.

20. The Project Manager (PM)
A Project Manager (PM)
Project managers play
monitoring, controlling,
the lead role in planning, executing,
and closing out projects. They are
accountable for the entire project scope, the project team and
resources, the project budget, and the success or failure of the
project.
21. The Project Manager (PM)
The importance of effective project managers
As more and more of our everyday work becomes project-based, it follows
that more and more people are finding themselves in the business of
managing projects — even if they’re not traditional project managers.
Project managers are the people who get buy-in for the project, who
communicate the changes, who understand how to get the best work out of
everyone, and who steer the project from beginning to end, even when it’s
being pushed off track. They’re the ones who not only plan and organize the
work itself, but who can explain the importance of planning for projects, so
that everyone on the team knows why what they’re doing is important.
The right person takes your project management strategy from good to great.
They turn your project’s plan into action. And maybe most importantly, they
bring everyone along on the journey — together
22. The Project Manager (PM)
Project manager responsibilities
The project management phases intersect with 10 knowledge
areas, which include integration, scope, time, cost, quality, human
resources, communication, risk procurement, and stakeholder
management.
A project manager, with the help of their team, is charged with
multiple responsibilities that span the five project phases of a
project life cycle (initiating, planning, executing, monitoring, and
closing) below.
23. The Project Manager (PM)
Highly effective project managers must have the following skills:
1. become a strategic business partner
2. encourage and recognize the valuable contributions of others
3. respect and motivate stakeholders
4. stress integrity and accountability
5. are fully entrusted in the success of the project
6. are able to “work in the leaden”
24. Phases of Project Management Life Cycle.
According to the PMBOK Guide (Project Management Body of Knowledge) by the Project
Management Institute (PMI), a project management life cycle consists of 5 distinct phases
including initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, and closure that combine to turn a
project idea into a working product and 10 knowledge area’s

Impact o f Delays in P r o j e c t Completions.
E s s e n t i a l s o f P r o j e c t Management Philosophy.
31. Impact of Delays in Project Completions
Why do projects get delayed?
However, delays can happen for various reasons
such weather, equipment failures, labor shortages,
missing or incorrect data, project mistakes and conflicts.
There are some reasons, like weather that are beyond
your control.
32. Impact of Delays in Project Completions
Completion o f a p r o j e c t in time and within b u d g e t is a
common g o a l o f a c o n t r a c t o r and a c l i e n t

C o n t r a c t o r s r e l a t e d d e l a y s a r e t h e most significant
ones.
33. Impact of Delays in Project Completions
Delays can be caused by one or more o f the following agencies :
Client and his team-mates
Contractor and his team-mates
Nature (i.e. earthquakes)
Due to a third party (i.e. strike)
Faults in documents, designs or decisions
Insufficient number o f equipment
Inaccurate cost or time estimation
Poor site management and supervision
Shortage o f construction materials
Incompetent project team
Contractor’s/ client’s financial difficulties
Etc.
34. Impact of Delays in Project Completions
The following types o f delay help to
determine the impact o f the delay on
the project :
Critical or non-critical
Excusable or non-excusable
Concurrent or non-concurrent
Compensable or non-compensable
35. Impact of Delays in Project Completions
Critical or non-critical
Critical delays: The delay interferes with the total time frame
Non-critical Delays: The delay does not interfere with the
total time frame
Excusable or non-excusable
Excusable delays: Delay caused by the client, e.g. the owner
denies access to the site or Delay caused by strike, fire,
unusual weather etc.
Non-excusable delays: Delays caused by the sub-
/contractor, e.g. not enough manpower on site to complete
the job in time.
36. Impact of Delays in Project Completions
Concurrent delays:
Two or more delay events occur at the same time or overlap
to some degree.
At least one of the delays has to be caused by the
contractor and one by client.
Non-Concurrent delays:
Delays do not overlap.
The client’s failure to provide to coordinate several prime
contractors
The client’s failure to provide adequate access to the project
Change orders placed by the client
Any interference by the client
Delays caused by a third party under the control of the client
37. Impact of Delays in Project Completions
The claim depends on the cause of the delay, which must be identified.
Therefore the responsibility is being clarified.
Possible Claims:
Time extensions (for the contactor)
Financial compensations (for client and contractor)
For the client:
Delay in use of project
Capital is blocked
Escalation (Increase) in subsequent investment
For the contractor:
Delay in getting profit
Idle of resources (machines, workers, etc.)
Productivity loss due to uncontracted work period
38. How to avoids Delays in Project Completions
Identifying the cause that led to the delay
Providing enough financial resources
Competent project management
Resource availability
Frequent progress meetings
Choosing the right (experienced) consultants,
suppliers and contractors
Accurate cost estimation, etc.

40. E s s e n t i a l s o f P r o j e c t Management Philosophy.
What is project management philosophy?
A personal Project Leadership Philosophy is a
summary of the guiding principles, beliefs, and
practices that shape the way you lead projects
and teams. ... The key is to get this philosophy on
paper so that you can consciously and purposefully
consider how you might improve or adapt your style
to be more successful.
41. E s s e n t i a l s o f P r o j e c t Management Philosophy.
42. E s s e n t i a l s o f P r o j e c t Management Philosophy.
A personal Project Leadership Philosophy is a summary of
the guiding principles, beliefs, and practices that shape the
way you lead projects and teams.
This philosophy should not be static—our industry, our company,
our mentors, and our experience should always be influencers of
our approach. The key is to get this philosophy on paper so that
you can consciously and purposefully consider how you might
improve or adapt your style to be more successful.
Project philosophies can look any way you would like them
to, so long as they capture meaningful information about the
experiences, assets, and liabilities you bring to the role—and
how you intend to leverage or mitigate those for greater
success.
43. E s s e n t i a l s o f P r o j e c t Management Philosophy.
PMI Quality Management principles are based on few popular philosophies.
Quality philosophies
Total Quality Management (Deming):- Proactive approach with Stastical
analysis.
Zero Defects (Crosby):-Do it right the first time.
Fitness for use (Juran):- Satisfy customer needs
Continuous Improvement (Kaizen):- Proactive approach to process
improvement
Gold plating:- Unacceptable practice of providing more than requested
Cost of Quality: - cost of confirming is less than cost of non-confirming
Design of experiments:- Isolate factors that influence results
6 sigma- strive for 99.9997%
ISO 9000:- documents what you do; what you document
44. E s s e n t i a l s o f P r o j e c t Management Philosophy.
Quality principles
Define and satisfy customer’s needs.
Prevent rather than inspect
Be active rather reactive
Validate project processes
Measure against approved standards
Continually improve
Take accountability

Completions with a company’s case study.
For example: Causes and Impact of Construction company’s Project
Delays
Construction project delays have always been a source of concern in the
construction industry. These are when construction projects exceed the
contract schedule.
Construction delays occur in many construction projects and the magnitude of
these delays vary considerably. While some projects end up only a few weeks
behind schedule, some are delayed for longer periods.
Construction delays are a major issue, specifically in the Nigerian construction
industry. Thus, it is necessary to bring to light the causes of construction delays
as well highlight the extent to which delays can adversely affect construction
project delivery.
