  12. Training Program = Project Project - A set of principles, practices, techniques applied to 1lead project teams and2control project schedule, cost, and risksto deliver the results of a successful project to the delighted stakeholders.

  15. Project Management • Scope –covers all of the work required to complete the project successfully. Some of the tools and techniques include definition of the project need, identification of key stakeholders, identification of project drivers, development of operational concepts, and identification of external interfaces. (Mathur) • Time –refers to the duration of the project and the estimated time when tasks will be completed. Tools that help manage time include Gantt charts schedulers. • Cost –refers to the money allocated and the money that will be spent for project activities, tasks and services. Project managers need to manage costs well. • Integration –refers to coordination of project plans to create a consistent, coherent document. It also involves making tradeoffs among competing objectives and alternatives to meet or exceed stakeholder needs & expectation. (PMI cited in Wikipedia)

  16. Project Management • Quality –refers to standards, forms, user focus and reliability of planned project performance. • Human Resource –refers to the people (individuals, teams, contracted professionals) who will be involved in the project. • Communication – refers to the messages that need to be put across to manage change & expectations. • Risk –the collective term for uncertainties that pose threats, limitations and obstacles to the achievement of project goals and objectives. Risks could be internal or external. The manager needs to ensure that risks are minimized, mitigated or leveraged to benefit the project process. • Procurement – This refers to the process of acquiring goods and services, infrastructure and equipment that are needed by the project to meet its goals, objectives & deliverables.

  19. PM Good Practices • Defining what has to be accomplished in relation to time, cost, technical and quality performance parameters; • Developing a plan, implementing the plan and ensuring that progress is maintained in line with objectives; • Using appropriate project management techniques and tools to plan, monitor and maintain progress; • Employing appropriate and skilled persons accountable for its successful accomplishment. • Ensuring the alignment of development goals and priorities with the goals of the development project with stakeholders.

  20. PM Good Practices • Communications and Communications Planning, designing a plan how to communicate effectively with stakeholders • Project Tracking, continuously and consistently checking the status of scope, schedule and costs • Managing Changes, deciding whether or not to accept, or reject or to integrate the changes right away • Managing Risks, identifying events that could adversely affect the project as early as possible and incorporate action plans necessary to avoid or mitigate these risks.
