IT Project management outline Importance of project Schedules a Project Time management Process Activity Definition a Activity sequencing Activity duration estimating Schedule development Schedule control Project T ime Management

Project Time Management 2 Outline ◼ Importance of Project Schedules ◼ Project Time Management Process ◼ Activity Definition ◼ Activity sequencing ◼ Activity duration estimating ◼ Schedule development ◼ Schedule control IT Project Management

Importance of Project Schedules Managers often cite delivering projects on time as one of their biggest challenges a Average time overrun from 1995 CHAOS report was 222%, improved to 63% in 2001 study a Time has the least amount of flexibility; it passes no matter what Schedule issues are the main reason for conflicts on projects, especially during the second half ofprojects Project T ime Management

Project Time Management processes a Project time management involves the processes required to ensure timely completion of a project a Processes include Activity definition Activity sequencing Activity duration estimating Schedule development Schedule control Project T ime Management 5

Project Time Management 5 Project Time Management Processes ◼ Project time management involves the processes required to ensure timely completion of a project. ◼ Processes include: ◼ Activity definition ◼ Activity sequencing ◼ Activity duration estimating ◼ Schedule development ◼ Schedule control

aCtivity Definition Where do schedules come from? Defining Activities Project schedules grow out of the basic document that Initiate a project Project charter includes start and end dates and budget information Scope statement and WBs help define what will be done ctivity definition involves developing a more detailed wbs and supporting explanations to understand all the work to be done Project T ime Management

Defining Activities ◼ Project schedules grow out of the basic document that initiate a project ◼ Project charter includes start and end dates and budget information ◼ Scope statement and WBS help define what will be done ◼ Activity definition involves developing a more detailed WBS and supporting explanations to understand all the work to be done

aCtivity Sequencing Ctivity Sequencing Involves reviewing activities and determining dependencies a Mandatory dependencies: inherent in the nature of the work, hard logic Discretionary dependencies: defined by the project team; soft logic External dependencies: involve relationships between project and non-project activities Project T ime Management

Project Time Management 8 Activity Sequencing ◼ Involves reviewing activities and determining dependencies ◼ Mandatory dependencies: inherent in the nature of the work; hard logic ◼ Discretionary dependencies: defined by the project team; soft logic ◼ External dependencies: involve relationships between project and non-project activities
