    This document discusses project management and key aspects of planning and scheduling projects. It defines a project as a set of interrelated activities with a start and end point to achieve unique outcomes. Good project managers are motivators, teachers, communicators, and able to organize diverse teams and activities. Proper project scope, timeline, resources and deliverables are essential. Planning includes defining work structures, networking diagrams, scheduling, and risk assessment. Scheduling sequences project phases and relates tasks coherently. Gantt charts visually depict activity relationships over time. PERT was developed for complex projects and involves identifying all activities, precedence, estimating times, and calculating critical paths and schedules. Networks are depicted as nodes and arcs.

    Project

    management
    ASIT KUMAR SINGH
     What is project?
     An interrelated statement set of
    activities that have a definite starting
    and ending point and the result in a
    unique outcome for a specific allocation
    of resources.
     Selecting project manager
    Should be good motivator,teachers,and
    communicators.
    Able to organize a set of disparate
    activities and work with personnel from
    a variety of disciplines.
    Should be responsible for the whole
    team.
    Scope and activities
    A thorough statement of project scope,

    time frame, and allocated resources is


    essential to managing the project
    process. the scope captures the
    essence of the desired project
    outcomes in the form of major
    deliverables, which are concrete
    outcomes of the project process.
    These deliverables become the focus
    of management attention during the
    life of the project.
    Planning a project format
    A key activities for any project process

    is making decisions. The managers of


    successful project processes specify
    the format for how the team will make
    them. such a format sets down
    guidelines for meetings, for resolving
    issues, and for communication among
    team members.
    Project planning and schduling
    Defining the work breakdown
    structure
    Diagramming the network
    Developing the schedule
    Analyzing cost-time trade-offs, and
    Accessing risks
    Project schduling
     In contrast to project planning, project
    scheduling is more specific. scheduling
    establishes times and sequences of the various
    phases of the project. In project scheduling
    ,the manager considers the many activities of
    an overall project and the task s that must be
    accomplished and relates them coherently to
    one another and to the calendar.
    Project scheduling
    Gantt charts
     A Gantt charts is a bar chart shows the
    relationship of activities overtime.
    Symbols meaning
     ( start of an activity
     ] end of an activity
     H actual progress of an
     activity
     v point in time where
    the
     project is now


    Program evaluation and review
    technique(PERT)
    Development of PERT In the U.S.Navy

    developed program evaluation and


    review technique (PERT)for planning
    and control of Polaris nuclear
    submarine project. the results of using
    PERT in the aplication,in which some
    3000 contractors were involved. is
    generally reported to have reduced by
    two years the project completion time
    for the Polaris project. in both
    government and industry PERT is
    widely used.
    PERT APPLICATION
    Clarify the conditions under which
    PERT may be appropriately used
    The project activities must all have
    clear starting and ending point.
    The project must not be complicated
    by too many interrelated tasks.
    Should be in correct sequence and
    timing

    Language of PERT
     The PERT language comprises simple symbols and terms. key
    symbols are given for activity ,dummy activity,event,and
    critical path of network. since the critical path requires the
    longest time through the network, management should watch
    it most closely to avoid unnecessary project de-lays.

     How does PERT work?


     clearly identify all activities in the project
     Identify the precedence requirements of activities
     Diagram the precedence requirements as a sequence of
    activities
     Estimate the time each activity will take
     Calculate the critical path and other project
    performance criteria, creating the schedule and plan
    for subsequent control
     Reevaluate and revise as experience dictates.

     Networks of nodes and arcs
