...Risk Management Plan for Defense Logistics Information Service 1. PURPOSE This Risk Management Plan is an overall look at how Defense Logistics Information Service can protect it’s data. The implication of lost confidential government data is the primary cause for this plan, and will be treated with the utmost importance. 2. GUIDING PRINCIPLES This plan will be presented through a formal, written, written risk management, and security safety program. The Security Safety and Risk Management Program supports the DLIS philosophy that government safety and risk management is everyone’s responsibility. Teamwork and participation among management, providers, and staff are essential for an efficient and effective patient safety and risk management program. The program will be implemented through the coordination of multiple organizational functions and the activities of multiple departments. DLIS supports the establishment of such clauses and best practices. An in depth look at mistakes made and ways we can learn from them will be at the forefront of out investigation. Constructive feedback will play a large part as well. In a just culture, unsafe conditions and hazards are readily and proactively identified, mistakes are openly dicussed, and suggestions for systematic improvements are welcomed. Individuals are still held accountable for compliance with safety and risk management practives. As such, if evaluation and investigation of an error or even reveal reckless behavior...

...adequate protection of information or have been so restrictive that they have prevented companies from making the maximum use of information to innovate, collaborate, and achieve competitive advantages. The security approach that many organizations have been forced to take in the past have been a reactive approach rather than viewing information security as a business enabler they see it as a inhibitor, designed to prevent bad things from happening. The problem with this is that good efforts in one area can be quickly nullified by failures in another. To help with its security transformation, Global called upon the expertise of CIS, its own security division, CIS’s information risk management strategy brings together, within a global framework, all the components that an organization needs to plan and implement an end-to-end approach for protecting a business’s most critical information assets.

...CDC UNIFIED PROCESS PRACTICES GUIDE PROJECT SCOPE PLANNING Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide guidance on the practice of Project Scope Planning and to describe the practice overview, requirements, best practices, activities, and key terms related to these requirements. In addition, templates relevant to this practice are provided at the end of this guide. Practice Overview Each project’s product and/or service is unique and requires its own careful balance of practices, processes, tools and techniques, etc. to ensure the required work is completed as agreed upon by key project stakeholders. The sum of these along with the product and/or service to be delivered by the project is known as the project’s scope. Getting key parties to agree upon what is the scope of the project’s work is known as project scope planning. The practice of project scope planning is a key management practice for planning and delivering projects successfully. Project scope includes high level features or capabilities that the business team has committed to delivering to a customer as well as those they have not committed to delivering. Project scope is often defined by executive sponsor, steering committee, project sponsor, and the project’s customer with input from other appropriate stakeholders. Understanding and analyzing who project stakeholders are is an important early step in the scope planning process. Project stakeholders are persons and/or organizations such...

...Project scope is the parameter of the project. It defines what are the deliverables, requirements and expectations for the project and provides a baseline to exclude unrelated works. The project manager’s job is to ensure all necessary works for the project success are included. And this process is referring to as the project scope management. Project scope management involves six processes, which are planning scope management, collecting requirements, defining scope, creating WBS, validating scope and controlling scope. These six interrelated steps provide an agreement between the stakeholders and project team to clarify expectation and requirements. The six processes also allow the team to understand how and what they should do in order to deliver the project within the deadline and without exceeding limited resources. 1. Planning scope management: This process answers the question “how will the team manage and maintain the scope” and “how to prepare required documents”. The team will review the project description from the project charter and project management plan to develop scope management plan and requirements management plan. The scope management plan defines how to prepare, maintain and control all management documents such as project scope statement, WBS and change requests. This step set the foundation for the scope management, as the team and manager will choose the most efficient way in controlling the process. 2. Collecting requirements: After defining the...

...Q.1.C. How should scope, time and cost be planned monitored and controlled on projects and how does this relate to integration? Provide a series of at least 20 actions to plan and control scope, time and cost using the strengths of both the PMBOK model and the PRINCE2 model. Solution: Introduction The scope, cost and time management are three separate bodies of knowledge areas in the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) [1]. These knowledge areas are described in detail in PMBOK study guide, but this report gives a brief explanation about what purpose they serve and how they are used. Scope Management In general PMBOK defines different ways of how the scope of a project can be managed and controlled. The scope management is divided in the following five processes [1]. * Scope Planning. * Scope Definition. * Creating WBS. * Scope verification. * Scope control. The above mentioned processes will interact with each other and also with the other bodies of knowledge. These processes document clearly help to define the projects limits, risks, hypothesis, constraints, organization, milestone and etc. The WBS (Work Break-down Structure) is used to subdivide the projects workload and this is done for better or management and control purposes. In general the scope of a project is decided or planned at the scope planning or definition stage. In WBS structure creation all the major deliverables are divided into smaller and manageable components. After...

...Assignment – Denver International Airport (DIA) Individual Case Analysis Nicholas Y. Foo City University of Seattle PM501_03_IN: Intro to Project Management Larry D. Mitchell October 17, 2014 DIA – Individual Case Analysis The Denver International Airport was built and finally opened on February 28, 1995. It took the project nearly six years to complete with project costs initially estimated at $1.2 billion to the final cost of $5.0 billion. From the case study in Project management: a systems approach to planning, scheduling and controlling, DIA provided improved airfield configuration, improved efficiency in the operation of the regional airspace, reduced noise impacts, a more efficient terminal/concourse/apron layout, improved international facilities, significant expansion capability and enhanced efficiency of airline operations (Kerzner, 2001, pp. 645-646). Yet, the DIA construction project was inundated with many problems, conflicts of interest, increase scope changes and cost issues. Of which, the root cause is that DIA had poor Stakeholder involvement and accountability. In the PMBOK® Guide, a Stakeholder is “an individual, group, or organization who may affect, be affected by, or perceive itself to be affected by a decision, activity, or outcome of a project” (PMI, 2013, p. 563). The facts will show that our stakeholder involvement and accountability suffered throughout the DIA construction project. United Airlines and Continental had 80% of all the incoming...

...Here are Five Practical Tips to Manage Scope When you tell your sponsor you want to manage scope well on this project, the sponsor will often think "oh no. That means we can never change anything." But that is not the case. You know that things change on a project and the longer your project is, the more likely you will have changes. Managing scope means that you recognize a change in scope has occurred and you manage the change proactively. Use these five tips to help you. 1: Set it in concrete Sounds simple, but the first step is to define the scope of the project in detail. What is the scope of the project? There are three major elements of scope. At a high level, you need to understand the project deliverables - the things you are going to build. You also need to know the boundaries of what is in-scope and what is out-of-scope. Lower-level scope are the deliverable requirements. These three elements - deliverables, boundaries and requirements - make up the overall product scope. 2: Plan for scope change Create a scope management plan in your project planning phase. This does not have to be a 15 page document. You just need to know how you will manage scope changes and make sure your sponsor agrees with the process. 3. Make sure you know the project impact as well as the benefit Often we receive scope change requests that explain the benefits of the change. When we take this to the sponsor the sponsor will very likely say yes, since all they see is the benefits...
