• PM convinces the teachers to travel in June because of the great
savings on tickets.
• But PM not really planning for the results of that decision—and
neither are the teachers.

One of the keys of project management is thinking a project through


before starting the work, so problems that could arise down the line
are anticipated ahead of time. That’s why so much of project
management is spent over planning

Customers are really not satisfied


• When the clients arrived in Lahore, they found out why the fare was
so low: June is monsoon season in Pakistan!
• PM may have saved them a bundle, but it didn’t keep him from
soaking his clients.

A bird’s-eye view of a project


Every project follows the same kind of pattern.
First it gets initiated, then planned, then executed (and monitored),
and finally closed.
That’s why the process groups are so useful—they’re a good way to
think about how you do the work.

For a large project, you’ll often see this pattern repeated several times.
Each major chunk of deliverables is treated as its own subproject that
goes through all of the process groups and processes on its own.

The Project
Management
plan is the
core of
Integration
Management.
It’s your main
tool for
running a
project.

You create work performance data by measuring


how the processes from each knowledge area are
being performed.

The Direct and


Manage Project
Work process is
where you and
your team
actually do the
work to
produce the
deliverables.

When the team is repairing defects to deliverables,


they still need to go through change control
• You’ve already seen how a project can change as it goes along.
• When the teachers asked for their hotel to be upgraded, you took the
request through the change control process at PMO, and when the
Change Control Board approved the change, you directed the agents
to make the booking for the group.
• But sometimes, things go wrong with what you intended to have
happen in the first place. When your quality department told you that
you had booked the teachers on the flight to Rome without putting
them in the same row, you quickly fixed the reservation. But you
intended for the teachers to sit together in the first place, so that’s
not a change, it’s a defect.

PM Success Tip

Rejecting changes means that sometimes you


need to say no to people to make them happy
in the end-they might not like it, but they’ll
end up satisfied when the project goes well.

You always have the authority to


make changes to your project if they
don’t affect cost, schedule, or scope.
13/01/2019

When staffing issued disrupt the project


team from adhering to the project
management plan such as causing the
schedule to be extended, a change
request at the appropriate time can be
processed through the PICC(Perform
Integrated Change Control) process.

Request Integrated
Change Control
• A change control system is
the set of procedures that lets
you make those changes in an
organized way.
• Change control is how you
deal with changes to your
Project Management plan
• You always have the authority
to make changes to your
project if they don’t affect
cost, schedule, or scope.

During M&C Process, PM sees:


the actual time to do scheduled work versus the amount of time you
planned
OR

the number of defects found versus the number you expected.


When you make a course change on your project, that’s taking
corrective action.
• Problems that are going to occur even though they haven’t happened
yet. you will want to take preventive action, or steps that you take to
avoid.
• Predicting problems on projects before they happen, it’s called a
forecast. A forecast can be a good reason to make a change too.
• The documented scope, schedule, and cost baselines in the Project
Management plan are called the performance measurement baseline.

• The most important output of the Close Project or Phase process is
