CASE: GREEN COMPUTING RESEARCH PROJECT (7)

  Part 7: Project Communications Management Processes required to ensure prompt and appropriate generation, collection, distribution, storage, retrieval, and ultimate disposition of project information. Project mangers spend most of their time communicating with team members and other project stakeholders — internal (at all organizational levels) or external to the organization. Case Study Several communications issues have arisen on the Green Computing Research Project in the three months since the project started. Your team had agreed to post all of its work on a shared site, but a couple of team members don’t seem to like using the site and prefer to use e-mails and attachments. When they do, other team members cannot easily see the work in one place or provide feedback using the wiki tools. It is also clear that some team members are better researchers and writers than others. When you have weekly conference calls with the webcams, at least a couple of team members don’t use the

  Part 6: Project Human Resource Management Project Human Resource Management includes the processes that organize, manage and conduct the project team. The project team is made up of those people who have been assigned roles and responsibilities to complete the project. The type and number of project team members may vary frequently as the project progresses. The members of the Case Study You are five weeks into the Green Computing Research Project, and the full-time team members are together for the first time. You, Ben, Matt, and Le all work in the same location, but Teresa and James are based out of town and do most of their work virtually. Le is also new to the company and has just moved to the United States. She is staying in a hotel and looking for a place to live. She’d like to buy her first home, but she wants to make sure it’s a good investment and somewhere she’d like to stay for at least five years. You get along well with your project sponsor, Ben, and Matt is a great re

  Part 5: Project Quality Management Project quality management encompasses the processes and activities that are used to figure out and achieve the quality of the deliverables of a project. However, quality can be an elusive word.  Quality is simply what the customer or stakeholder needs from the project deliverables. By keeping the definition tied to the customer or stakeholder, quality management can have a narrower focus, which means it’s more likely to achieve its goals. Case Estudy The Green Computing Research Project team is working hard to ensure that its work meets expectations. The team has a detailed project scope statement and schedule, but as the project manager, you want to make sure that you’ll satisfy key stakeholders, especially Ben, the project sponsor, and Ito, the program manager. You have seen how tough Ito can be on project managers after listening to his critiques of other project managers at the monthly program review meeting. He was adamant about having solid

  Part 4: Project Cost Management Effective project cost management allows each project to be specific and unique because that project entails costs and requires specific funding.   Case Estudy Your project sponsor has asked you and your team to refine the cost estimate for the project so that a solid cost baseline exists for evaluating project performance. Recall that your schedule and cost goals are to complete the project in six months or less for under $500,000. Initial estimates suggested that about $300,000 would be spent on internal labor. You mistakenly thought that travel costs would be included in that $300,000, but now you realize that travel is a separate cost item. The trip to England early in the project cost $6,000, which you had not expected.

  Part 1: Project Integration Management   According to the PMI,  Project Integration Management is all about sustaining stability in all areas of a project like; time, scope, cost, quality, human resource, communication, risk, procurement, stakeholder, among others. These are interconnected processes and cannot be carried out by a single team. It’s a vital knowledge area and highly valued aspect in the PMI. It’s a process that involves constant monitoring of the procedures undertaken during the life cycle of the project. One crucial feature of project integration management is that it entirely focuses on a given project keeping a watchful eye right from initiation until the completion of the project. Case Study You work for We Are Big, Inc., an international firm with more than 100,000 employees in several countries. A strategic goal is to help improve the environment while increasing revenues and reducing costs. The Environmental Technologies Program just started, and the VP of Opera

  Part 2: Project Scope Management According to the PMI,  Project scope is the work required to output a project’s deliverable. Change happens, and project scope management includes the process to manage scope changes and make sure the project will still come in on time and within budget. Scope is often defined by a work breakdown structure, and changes should take place only through formal change control procedures. Case Estudy Congratulations! You have been selected as the project manager for the Green Computing Research Project. The company’s CIO, Ben, is the project sponsor, and Ito is the program manager for the larger Environmental Technologies Program. Now you need to put together your project team and get to work on this high-visibility project. You will work with Ben to hand-pick your team.

The goal is to minimise the impact of these risks. A risk is any unexpected event that can affect people, technology, resources, or processes (including projects). Unlike a regular problem that may arise, risks are incidents that may occur suddenly, sometimes entirely unexpected. Case Study Because several problems have occurred on the Green Computing Research Project, as described in the previous section, you decide to be more proactive in managing risks. You also want to address positive and negative risks.
