    4. Elements of a Project

    5. Project Life Cycle Overview Identify an opportunity to provide a product, a service, or a capital project. Define the project conceptually. Form the initial project development team. Write a business plan for the firm, project, product, or service. Define the project Statement of Work (SOW). Identify the required or estimated completion date. Identify project milestones and prepare a management-level schedule with decision points.

    6. Project Life Cycle Overview Estimate project development costs – top-down, parametrically, by analogy, etc. Forecast project benefits (tangible and intangible), revenues, etc. Forecast project operating costs – labor, materials, other variable factors. Develop a financial plan. Forecast cash flows and cash requirements throughout the project life cycle. Identify project risks – business, technological, regulatory, etc.

    7. Project Life Cycle Overview Assess risks qualitatively; identify potential showstoppers. Identify methods to avoid or mitigate any showstoppers – or terminate the project. Calculate project net Present Value, Internal Rate of Return or other measures of success. Repeat above steps until the project is economically feasible – or terminate it. Identify off-ramps – how to exit the project. If the project is successful. If the project is not going to be successful.

    8. Project Life Cycle Overview Identify sources of project funding – clients, personal equity, corporate, banks, venture capitalists, etc. Obtain funding – or revise the project and the financial plan as necessary to get funding. Form an Integrated Project Team for project execution. Set up timely accounting and reporting methods to report costs and progress (earned value).

    9. Project Life Cycle Overview Update and refine the SOW. Determine level of engineering, design, and other resources needed. Revise the conceptual cost estimate. Set cost and schedule contingencies (management reserves) based on risks. Develop a sense of common purpose in the project team

    10. Project Life Cycle Overview Assemble the engineering – design team. Define the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and WBS Dictionary. Institute a change control (configuration management) process. Prepare the project network schedules. Determine the project critical path or paths. Assess remaining risks quantitatively and identify major risks or common causes.

    11. Project Life Cycle Overview Identify risk mitigation and risk management actions. Prepare the project Risk Management Plan. Determine the project organizational structure (fully projectized, functional, matrix, etc.) Prepare the Project Execution Plan. Identify available resources and resource constraints. Set up the project Quality Assurance Program and issue the Quality Assurance Plan (QAP). Establish metrics for quality control (Six Sigma).

    12. Project Life Cycle Overview Perform preliminary engineering design and bottom-up engineering estimate based on WBS. Integrate the WBS cost estimate with the network schedules (resource load the networks). Forecast the Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled (BCWS) for the project duration. Obtain quotes or bids from vendors, suppliers, and subcontractors. Perform make or buy calculations. Identify delivery dates for significant equipment. File for and obtain all necessary permits.

    13. Project Life Cycle Overview Pass periodic management decision points based on updated costs, benefits, and financials. Assure that all project participants communicate. Establish approved Budget at Completion (BAC) (plus management reserve or contingency). Manage by walking around. Review vendor drawings and specifications.

    14. Project Life Cycle Overview Assure that all supplier and subcontractor networks interface to the master project network. Revise networks to meet cash flow, equipment delivery, and other resource constraints. Assure that engineering, procurement, and manufacturing (or construction) work together to develop a feasible plans, schedules, and information interfaces
