...Technology and Innovation Management Viewpoint Manage Risk for Product Launch Actively manage risk to deliver the right products on time! Risk management is a well-established notion in hedging and safety related issues, but what about in product development? A development project going wrong, not managing its risk can bring a company to its knees. Not realizing and mitigating risks to delivery, quality, feature fulfillment and budget can at the extreme lead to significant business losses, putting an entire company at risk. We argue that project risk management is central to secure successful product delivery. Project risk management can and should be used as a key lever in: bringing a balanced perspective to the management of complicated issues in complex organizations prioritizing work in a rapidly changing context with an anticipated approach that is better than simple intuition and that facilitates communication between people identifying knowledge gaps and actively closing these gaps the active management (and not the avoidance) of risk by being alert and prepared The risk level in product development projects increases as projects are put under pressure to deliver more complex products, in shorter time, with distributed resources and increased need for interaction between projects due to platform synergy requirements. And we argue that proactive risk management is essential in order to address these challenges and help projects succeed in terms of...

...tools available for project management to help managers to use quantitative analysis Project Management: A project is temporary in that it has a defined beginning and end in time, and therefore defined scope and resources. And a project is unique in that it is not a routine operation, but a specific set of operations designed to accomplish a singular goal. So a project team often includes people who don’t usually work together – sometimes from different organizations and across multiple geographies. The development of software for an improved business process, the construction of a building or bridge, the relief effort after a natural disaster, the expansion of sales into a new geographic market — all are projects. And all must be expertly managed to deliver the on-time, on-budget results, learning and integration that organizations need. Project management, then, is the application of knowledge, skills and techniques to execute projects effectively and efficiently. It’s a strategic competency for organizations, enabling them to tie project results to business goals — and thus, better compete in their markets. Microsoft Project has a qualitative risk analysis methodology capability But what about quantitative cost and schedule risk analysis? Quantitative risk analysis gives the project manager the ability to see how a project schedule will be affected if project risks become issues. As a result of this insight, project managers is implement risk responses plans which...

...Groups One of the most discussed tables in the Project Management Institute’s (PMI), A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge, (PMBOK® Guide) Fifth Edition is the “Project Management Process Groups and Knowledge Areas Mapping” matrix, found in Table 3-1 on page 61. This table maps the 47 processes of project management to their corresponding Knowledge Area, as well as to their corresponding Process Group. At first glance, the table seems quite complicated, so let’s break it down and uncover why a solid understanding of the relationships between processes, Process Groups, and Knowledge Areas is important to anyone preparing to take the Project Management Professional (PMP) ® exam. It’s so important, in fact, that we suggest you memorize this matrix and the relationships it calls out. Memorizing the table will prove to be a valuable asset to you during your PMP Exam. What is a “Process” – 47 processes of project management? Let’s start with the building blocks of the matrix - what is a process? At its most basic level, a process is simply a way of transforming an input into an output using proven tools and techniques. The PMBOK® Guide defines a process as “a set of interrelated actions and activities performed to achieve a specified set of products, results, or services.” Good processes-based on sound principles and proven practices-are extremely important for a project’s success. Processes, like a roadmap, keep the project going in the right direction; they can also...

...that the Project Manager approves of the Project Management Plan; it needs to be approved by all of the stakeholders in the project. Everyone on the team should feel comfortable with the processes that are going to be used to do the work. 2. Answer: B Joe is doing root-cause analysis on process problems: that’s Perform Quality Assurance. Remember, Perform Quality Control is when you are trying to find problems in your work products through inspection. Perform Quality Assurance is when you are looking at the way your process affects the quality of the work you are doing. 3. Answer: C Every change request needs to be evaluated to determine whether or not it should be made. That’s what we do in the Perform Integrated Change Control process—every change is analyzed to determine its impact. It’s then documented as a change request and put into the change control system. That’s where the stakeholders on the CCB determine if the change should be made. 4. Answer: A When a change has been approved you always need to update the baseline and then implement the change. That way, you will be sure to track your performance versus new scope and schedule expectations and not the old ones. 5. Answer: B By the time the Close Project or Phase process happens, you should have already gotten formal written acceptance for the deliverables. That’s what the Verify Scope process is for, and you verify that formal acceptance in the Close Project or Phase process. 6. Answer: A The project scope...

The main objective of this book is to provide an easy-to-read and easy-to-understand PRINCE2® manual. The idea for this book came from the questions I received from people trying to learn PRINCE2 and after reading the official PRINCE2 manual “Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2”. The official PRINCE2 Manual for the Project Manager is an excellent reference manual but can be rather difficult to pick up and read if you are new to both project management and PRINCE2. So this book is meant to be – and is – an easy introduction to PRINCE2 and is quickly becoming the most read book for people wishing to learn about PRINCE2 and prepare for Foundation Exam and Practitioner Exam.
