In this step, Jennifer Whitt from projectmanager.com will teach you about the components of project management. The components are knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques. Knowledge is what is known in a particular field, skills are a particular ability or expertise, tools are devices used to carry out a particular function, and techniques are ways of carrying out a particular task. These four components are used to contribute to project activities and to help project managers manage their projects more effectively.

This content is about the 5 phases of project management and how to use project management tools to simplify the process. Phase 1 is Project Initiation where the project charter is developed and key stakeholders are identified. Phase 2 is Project Planning where technical requirements, a detailed project schedule, communication plan, and goals/deliverables are established. Phase 3 is Project Execution where the team does the actual work and the project manager establishes efficient workflows. Phase 4 is Project Monitoring and Controlling where the project manager tracks the effort and cost and ensures that objectives and deliverables are met. Phase 5 is Project Closing where contracts are terminated and a reflection meeting is held.

5 Phases of Project Management Process - A Complete Breakdown

In this step you'll learn about project initiation and feasibility studies. Project initiation is the formal recognition that a new project or the next phase in an existing project should begin and resources should be committed to the project. Feasibility studies are conducted to determine whether the project is viable or not, and project selection methods help organizations to decide among alternative projects and determine the tangible benefits to the company of choosing or not choosing a project. Developing a project charter is the very first piece of document for a project and a written acknowledgement that the project exists. It formally authorizes a project or phase and documents the initial requirements that satisfy stakeholders needs and expectations.

In this step you'll learn about project scope management and product scope. Project scope is the work performed to deliver a product, service, or result with the specified features and functions. Product scope is the features and functions that characterize a product, service, or results. Collect requirements, define scope, create work breakdown structure, and control scope are the processes involved in project scope management."

In this video, you will learn how to do a feasibility study for your project in seven simple steps. Feasibility studies identify key project goals and relevant factors, examine the market research and detail the resources and budget needed to successfully execute the project. Additionally, the video covers a critical factor which is often downplayed by project managers while conducting a feasibility study. Lastly, the video provides tips on how to access a feasibility study example or template to work from.

In this video you'll learn about risk management and how to manage project risk. Risk management is a core part of all project management and the basic risk management process has four steps. The first step is to identify the risks, and the second step is to understand them and analyze the risks. The third step is to put together a plan for how to handle the risk and the fourth step is to put the plans into action and track the progress."

In this step you'll learn about the project planning process and how to integrate the components together. The project planning process consists of understanding the scope of the project, creating a work breakdown structure, building a cost breakdown structure, creating a schedule of deliverables, and creating a Gantt chart. Additionally, risk management plays an important role in the project planning process.

In this episode of Development that Pays, Gary Straughan discusses the Planning Fallacy, a phenomenon in which predictions about how much time will be needed to complete a future task display an optimism bias and underestimate the time needed. He explores the example of a university curriculum project, and how the team underestimated the time needed to complete the project. He then goes on to talk about how this effect can be seen in the workplace, and what the solution might be. He encourages viewers to share their thoughts in the comments below, and to hit the logo for a new episode every Wednesday.

In this step, students will learn about the importance of adding buffers to their activities. A buffer is an additional amount of time added to a project to account for the known and unknown risks. The project manager holds the combined buffers, and parses them out when needed. The team members add a buffer of a few days, while the project manager adds a buffer of 10 days. Finally, the management adds a 20% buffer to ensure the project finishes on time.

In this video, we are talking about dependencies which is part of the Schedule Management Knowledge Area. There are three main types of dependencies: finish to start, start to start, and finish to finish. External dependencies are dependencies outside the scope of the project, while internal dependencies are within the scope of the project. Discretionary dependencies, also known as soft logic, are simply the preference of the team. This video is a great resource to learn more about dependencies for PMP preparation."

In this video, the speaker is discussing task dependencies within project management. Task dependencies refer to the linkage between tasks, and the most common form of task dependency is a finish to start dependency. It is also possible to have start to start, finish to finish and start to finish dependencies. The speaker also talks about lags and leads, which are gaps between the logical dependencies. Finally, the speaker provides guidance on which types of dependency are considered good practice in different contexts.

In this video, you'll learn to determine the project duration and critical path of a project. The process involves creating a rough draft of the project and then doing a forward pass and backward pass to get the early start and late start times. The critical path is determined by finding which activities have the same early finish and late finish times. Delaying activities on the critical path will increase the duration of the project, while delaying activities off the critical path will not affect the duration.

In this step, you'll learn how to create a schedule network diagram in Excel. You'll learn how to create an activity list, add borders and merge and center cells. You'll also learn how to freeze panes, insert shapes and arrows, and copy and paste linked pictures. With these steps, you'll be able to create a beautiful schedule network diagram that you can use for your project management journey.

In this video, you'll learn about project cost estimation and the techniques used to estimate project costs. These techniques include order of magnitude estimating, reference class forecasting, parametric forecasting, asking for bids, using catalogs and pricing tables, and creating a sample or pilot. Additionally, you'll learn about the importance of using a red team and adding contingency to your estimates, and how to create a cash flow and business case for the project."

In this step, you'll learn about project procurement management, which fits closer to the end of the process groups. The process involves agreements that describe the relationship between the two parties and the buyer and seller. Key concepts include the legally binding nature of a contract, the effect of culture and local law, and the availability of the seller. Trends and emerging practices include advances in tools and technology, risk management, and stakeholder relations. Tailoring considerations include complexity, physical location, and regulations."

In this step you'll learn about project quality management and the importance of quality assurance. Quality is the degree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfills requirements while grade is the number of features or benefits of the product itself. Prevention is preferred over inspection and cost of quality includes all costs incurred over the life of the product by investment in preventing non conformance to requirements. Lastly, customer satisfaction, stakeholder engagement, and continuous improvement are all important considerations for project quality management."

In this step you'll learn about planning resource management and how it fits into the overall scheme of project management. Resource management involves estimating activity resources, acquiring resources, developing the team, and controlling resources. Key concepts discussed include the skills and competencies needed for the project manager to manage team resources, the involvement of all team members in project planning and decision making, proactively developing the team's skills and competencies, resource management methods, emotional intelligence, self-organizing teams, virtual teams, and agile considerations."

This step is about understanding the responsibilities of the key roles in a project. The project manager is the most important role and is responsible for planning, execution and closing of the project. The project owner is responsible for ensuring the project receives necessary resources and approving any changes outside the project manager's authority. The project director is responsible for ensuring the right projects are performed properly and for the implementation and maintenance of good project management practices. The reference group is an advisory board with respect to functional or organizational issues.
