15 WHAT IS A PROJECT?
Temporary
Has a specific end date!
Can take 1 day, 1 year or 10
years
Has a life cycle (start and finish
date)
Unique
It is something you do not do
everyday!
It requires a different approach to
execute
![Page 16: Best Practices of Project Management - Presentation EN.pdf · Best Practices of Project Management Capacity Building Workshop Farhad Abdollahyan ...

16 WHAT IS PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Project Management is the
application of knowledge, specific
skills, tools, and techniques to
project activities to meet the project
requirements, in order to increase
success rates.
Manage/not manage a project is a
personal and/or
organizational decision

33 BACKGROUND – UNDERSTANDING THE CONTEXT
Over the last decades, the Government of
Globalia has been implementing a
development strategy, not strongly focusing
on the environmental, social and economic
dimensions of development.
A new Government has just decided to
strengthen strategic linkage of environment
with socio and economic developmental
goals.
Recently, the Government initiated a
project for building a bridge in the town of
Kan, northern part of Globalia. The main
outcome of the project is to contribute to
the environmental protection of Globalia’ s
river (UNESCO biosphere reserve),
improving fostering trade of the local
community, by removing the need for
polluting crossing ferries.
![Page 34: Best Practices of Project Management - Presentation EN.pdf · Best Practices of Project Management Capacity Building Workshop Farhad Abdollahyan ... WORK BREAKDOWN STRUCTURE (A PORTFOLIO](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040515/5e71b9f5b0cba926e604ce86/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34 EXPECTED OUTCOME
The bridge would provide improved access to market for
agricultural products and remove isolation of communities as well
as facilitating for the implementation of aid and
development programs
The bridge will improve environmental conditions in Globalia’s
river basin by:
• Eliminating polluting crossing ferries system that has been proven to
contribute to habitat and biodiversity degradation
• Eliminating the use of old quays and jetties that are harmful to local
fauna
• Provide safer means of river crossing to local communities
• Fostering economic development and facilitating trade, thereby
improving access to market for agricultural products and removing
isolation of communities

35 WHAT IS “OUR” PROJECT?
You are submitting a proposal for the bridge and have been requested to provide accurate estimates in terms of time/cost/quality. To assist with creating such estimate,
you have decided to build a prototype of the bridge.

36 PROJECT OBJECTIVE
Build a 2 dimensional prototype
of the Sustainable Bridge using
the materials provided, within a
duration under 50 minutes and
a cost below $5,000.00 as

46 UNDERSTANDING THE WBS
Arrange the work in a logical
way
Group elements by affinity
Easy to assign
resources/responsibilities
The Good!
Does not relate the duration
with the size of the boxes
Does not show relationships
among packages
The Bad!

47 SOME TIPS…
Product Oriented (PBS)
Foundation of the planning
process
Usually detailed to 4/6 levels
Does not contain verbs (actions)
No “single child” for package

48 DECOMPOSITION TECHNIQUE
Break the project into big pieces of work
Check each piece of work
separately and break down to one level more
Repeat the process to the other pieces of
work
Stop when the level of detail is sufficient

65 CRITICAL PATH
The critical path is the path
with the tasks that directly
affect the duration of the
project.
Any delays on the critical
path activities will impact
the project finish date.

It’s a path where any delay in any task will impact the project duration.
It’s the longest path of all possible paths on a project.
There can be more than one critical path.
It’s the path with no floats or with the smallest float.
It determines the shortest possible duration for the project.
