… and Project Management!

Certified Project Management Professional (PMP)• Project Management Institute founded in 1969

- Project Management as a Core Competency- Provided a basic process- Created a minimum standard of practice

• Based on the Project Management Book of Knowledge (PMBOK) – ANSI standard – 5th edition - 5 Process Groups

– Initiate, Plan, Execute, Monitor/Control, Close- 8 (now 9) Knowledge Areas

– Integration, Scope, Time, Cost, Quality, Resources, Communication, Risk, Procurement

- Matrixed with 42 processes

What is a project?

According to the PMBOK• A project is a temporary endeavor with a defined

beginning and end undertaken to meet unique goals and objectives (usually with limited resources).

• Project management is the application of knowledge, skills, and techniques to execute projects effectively and efficiently.

• Program management is the ability to coordinate multiple projects

-AND-• provides strategic competency for enabling an

organization to tie project results to business goals.

PAGE 7

And ….

It is also the source of lots of data!• Incorporates many of the business goals of the company• Identifies critical or constrained resources• Provides our main source of revenue• Tells us where we have been• Shows us where we are going (at least in the near future)

PAGE 8

In the beginning, Project Management was ‘easy’How much have we spent? (Cost)

• Financial information

When is it going to be done? (Schedule)• Scheduling information

What still needs to be done? (Estimate-to-Complete)• Staffing • Material

‘Only ‘ 3 pieces of information

PAGE 9

All you needed was a PM ‘tool’

PM Tools were good and continue to improve• Fairly complex scheduling algorithms• Can schedule multiple types of resources• Can create a baseline• Can do some limited forecasting of resources

Limitations • Difficult to combine or compare projects• No ‘true’ cost information• Require constant manipulation to maintain ‘reality’• They don’t act independently

PAGE 10

First, we had to focus on ‘us’(ATD PM Process 1.0)Defined our Project Lifecycle

• Created a project plan template- Phases based on Control Gates- WBS (tasks) based on functional groups- Could be tailored for specific projects

• Identified our resources- Determined main functional areas

• Documented our Project Management ‘Methodology’• Started upgrading our PM tools• Every project had to have a project plan

Information cycle was based on Weekly/Monthly Input

ATD PM Process 1.0 (cont)

Definite focus was still on a single project• Wrote macros to reduce many manual processes• Identified major functional user groups

- Inclusion of other process initiatives into the project template

• Included proposal generation in our lifecycle

But things change … as they should• All companies must grow• Products have a given lifecycle• Business environments change• Customer needs change

PAGE 13

ATD PM Process 1.5ish

New questions at the ‘program’ level• What should we be working on or NOT working on?

Create department priorities • Need some way to define or measure

Resource Slider (capacity planning)• Focused on staffing (headcount/function)

- Utilized our current resource information- Added some ‘what-if’ functionality

Could answer most questions – but took awhile …

PAGE 14

ATD PM Process 2.0

New PM tool (Innovator!)• More easily integrated into the information flow• ‘Share the wealth’ approach for updating plans• Ability to grow/expand with a common interface (i.e. –

inclusion of work flows, Helpdesk tickets)

The Innovator ‘story’• ‘Live’ in January 2008• Imported 80+ active project• October 2012 created our 500th project• January 2013 added Contracts • March 2013 – first major upgrade – 9.3 SP1

What About the Program?

For RYG information, we use the Programs directory

What is ‘Project’ data?

Your projects may represent …• Customer activity

- Trend analysis – resource needs- Risk analysis – funding (or revenue)

• Product development activity- Development vs Production

• Staffing levels and/or needs- Business unit level- Function level

• ‘Sales’ or revenue activity- My people ARE my sales – the more they are scheduled …

As a whole they represent much more than a project

How can I get to it?

Don’t forget about Excel …• Useful for quick reporting/graphing• Excellent tool for determining requirements

Resource Management

‘Resource Slider’• Excel-based tool developed in 2005

- Allows simple ‘what-if’ flexibility by ‘sliding’ projects- Presents data by

– Resource function» Named vs Generic» Capacity based on 12-month rolling average

– Business Unit– Customer– Project state

» Current project work» Pending contract work» ‘Future’ Work

Resource Slider – example – All Projects View
