– Following defined steps
• PRINCE 2 is one such method
• Its Methodology suggest that a project should have: – An organized and controlled start
– An organized and controlled middle
– An organized and control end

Lifecycle Characteristics
• Resources- consumption begins low during initiation, gains pace during planning, full throttle during execution
• Predictability of outcome- lowest at start, gets progressively higher as project continues
• Opportunity to Influence- (without increasing cost) highest at start but gets progressively lower
![Page 20: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Pitfalls of Poor Project Management • Pitfalls in Establishing the Project – Project plans are not aligned with business
plans – Priorities are not communicated to parties
involved – There is no shared vision • Pitfalls in Planning – Project plans developed on a single level – Using cumbersome tools – Creativity discouraged – Unrealistic estimates
![Page 23: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• Pitfalls in Organizing and Implementing – Lack of cooperation – Resource providers not committed – Resources not available when required – Poor communication • Pitfalls in Control – Progress not monitored – Ineffective review meetings – No reporting protocols – No corrective action
![Page 24: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Project Definition
• Project definition starts when the idea of a project is first conceived and it does not end until all information has been gathered to describe the project in its finished condition
• Project initiation and definition are about doing the right things in the early stages of a project
• Initiation is the process of formally authorizing a new project
![Page 26: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Importance of Initial Project Definition
• The project will be defined as accurately and fully as possible before it is allowed to start
• The project requirements must be clearly established, documented and understood
• The investor will know how the money will be spent and what benefits can be expected in return
• The contractor will know what it is bidding for and what its commitments would be
![Page 27: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Contents of the Project Definition Report
• Management Summary • Background: sets the context within which the
project exists • Purpose, scope and objectives: the reasons,
expected returns, work needed, product outcome, deliverables
• Project organization • Project management system: defines the tools
and techniques for planning and controlling
![Page 28: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Project Definition Report Cont’d • Risks and Assumptions • Project Budgets: the initial estimates and
statement of max amount which can be spent to justify the expected benefits
• Project Justification: an investment appraisal performed
• Appendices: any preliminary plans
• Project Charter Report • Project Initiation Checklist
![Page 29: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Stakeholder Management
• A Stakeholder is any individual, group or organization : – that shares a stake in the project
– that can influence or be influenced by the project.
– who have an interest in the project process or outcome
– whose interest may be positively or negatively affected as a result of the execution and outcome
– who are actively involved in the project
![Page 30: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Categorization of Stakeholders
• Internal Stakeholders – Usually play a supportive
role
– Project Manager has some degree of authority and influence
– Should be kept well informed about project’s status
• External Stakeholders – May not be supportive
but rather adverse
– Not usually subject to the legal authority of the project manager
– Information should be provided on a
“need-to-know’” basis
– But keep communication channels open
![Page 31: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Key Stakeholders
• Owner/Customer/Client- is the person/group who will own the product
• Sponsor- is the person/group who provides the financial resources
• Champion- is a senior user representative
• Users- the group who will operate the product
• Project Manager- the individual responsible for managing the project
![Page 32: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Key StakeholdersCont’d
• Project team- the group that is performing the work
• Integrators- are responsible for ensuring the transient teams of people are able to work together
• Steering Committee- a representative of sponsor, users, project manager, champion
• Contractors
• Government agencies
![Page 33: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The Owner/Contractor Model Turner (1999, pg.50)
![Page 34: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Stakeholder Management
• S M assumes that success depends on taking into account the potential impact of project decisions on all stakeholders during the entire life of the project
• Project managers must consider how the achievements of the project’s goals and objectives will affect or be affected by stakeholders
Therein lies the challenge
![Page 35: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Stakeholder Management Process
1. Identification of Stakeholders
2. Determine their requirements
3. Predict their behaviour (gaze into a crystal ball)
4. Manage and influence those requirements and perspectives by implementing a strategy
![Page 36: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Objective of Stakeholder Mgt
• To curtail stakeholder activities that might adversely affect the project
• To integrate stakeholder perspective into the project’s formulation process
• To facilitate the project team’s ability to take advantage of opportunities
• To encourage stakeholder support for project purposes
![Page 37: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Bottom Line
• Failing to recognize or cooperate with stakeholders whether supportive or adverse may well hinder a successful project outcome
• Stakeholder Mgt is thus a necessity, allowing the project manager to maintain better control
![Page 41: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Establishing Communication Links as a Project Manager
• You will probably spend more than half your time talking to people
• It is your critical responsibility for maintaining all communication links within and outside to the project to ensure integration
• You must serve as a bridge to make sure that communication barriers do not occur
• You are probably the one person in a position to expedite communication linkages
‘The key- Project Organization’

Project Organization
• “to marshal adequate resources (human, material and financial) of an appropriate type to undertake the work of the project, so as to deliver its objectives successfully “. Turner (1999, pg. 124)
• “is about structuring and integrating the internal environment through careful planning and organization design”. Gardiner (2005, pg.126)
![Page 43: What is Project Management? - Welcome to Our Learning Resource Centre](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070222/613d3d75736caf36b75afbbb/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
