    Laws of Project Management

    Projects progress quickly until they are 90% complete.Then they remain at 90% complete forever.

    When things are going well, something will go wrong.

    When things just cantget worse, they will. When thingsappear to be going better, you have overlookedsomething.

    If project content is allowed to change freely, the rate of

    change will exceed the rate of progress. Project teams detest progress reporting because it

    manifests their lack of progress.

    Fund Limit Reconciliation

    Large variations in the periodic expenditure of

    funds are usually undesirable for organizational

    structure component or any schedule activity.

    cost performance on the project. The cost baseline is the

    component of the project management plan.

    37/81

    Project Management A Managerial Prospective37

    Project Funding RequirementsFunding requirements, total and periodic (e.g. annual

    or quarterly) are derived from the cost baseline and

    can be established to exceed. Usually by a margin

    to allow for either early performance/progress or

    cost overruns. The total funds required are those

    included in the cost baseline plus the managementcontingencies reserve account.

    Project Risk Management

    Project Risk Management includes the processes

    concerned with conducting risk management planning,

    identification, analysis, responses and monitoring and

    Triggers

    Indications that a risk has occurred or is about o occur.

    Triggers may be discovered in the risk identifications

    process and watched in the risk monitoring and controlprocess. Triggers are some time called risk symptoms or

    warning signs.

    Slack time tells us how long a particular activity can bedelayed without delaying the entire project

    Assumption: All preceding activities completed as early

    as possible

    Slack = LSES or Slack = LF-EF

    Project Crashing

    (Accounting for the Time/ Cost Trade-off)

    What if the project cant be completed within thetargeted time?

    Can the project be shortened by adding moreresources?

    If so, do the necessary resources exist?

    Project Crashing (Crunching)

    1. Determine if critical path (CP) falls withintargeted time. If yes, stop.

    2. If no, compute crash cost per time period foreach activity.

    3. Select activity on CP with lowest crash costand crash.

    4. Re-compute CP and check to see if within

    targeted time.5. Repeat as necessary.

    Treating Time as Probabilistic

    Using Time Estimates

    1. Calculate ET = Expected Time for eachactivity.

    2. Use ET to determine CP and, if necessary, tocrash the project.

    3. Determine variance of expected time for eachactivity.

    4. Calculate Z and determine probability project

    will be completed by a desired time.
