  2. Managing a set of items • Client expectations • Whatever documented need to be met • If not clear, document • Team • Scope • Score creep • Feature creep • Constraints • The triple constraints • Project requirements, resources (people time, cost, etc), and scope • Obstacles and risks • Changes

  3. Status Report • Do Regularly • Collect from bottom (team members) • Send up • To the stakeholders • They do not need to know everything • Need to be verified (sometimes)

  4. Tracking cost • Budgeted cost of work scheduled (BCWS) • Scheduled tasks • Budgeted cost of work performed (BCWP) • Completed tasks • Actual cost of work performed (ACWP) • Cost of all completed tasks • Schedule variance (SV) = BCWP-BCWS • Negative indicates you are behind schedule • Schedule Perform Index SPI = BCWP/BCWS • < 1 indicates you are behind schedule • Cost variance CV = BCWP – ACWP • Negative indicates you are over budget • Cost performance Index CPI = BCWP/BCWS • < 1 indicates you are over budget • My project has a SPI of 1.21 and CPI of 1.11 – good or bad? • My project has a SPI of 0.9 and CPI of 0.85 – good or bad? • My project has a SPI of 1.21 and CPI of 0.91 – good or bad?

  5. Bring your project back on track • Crashing • Shorted the project by adding more resources • Overtime • Fast track • Exploring concurrency • Phased implementation

  6. Budget • Stay within budget • Have enough $ to start with • Have a process to control $ • Where to cut/reduce budget • Cut people • Improve process • Remove dependencies ASAP • Reduce non labor cost • Use contingency budget • Escalating and do less
