5、ecta product or service for the client/customerin specific, tangible, and measurable terms. Purpose of the Scope Statement To clearly define the deliverable(s) for the end user. To focus the project on successful completion of its goals. To be used by the project owner and participants as a planning

Accept: reducing (or not meeting) a criterion requirement.編輯ppt11Project Management Trade-offs2022-1-22編輯ppt12Trade-offs among time , cost, and performanceOne of the primary jobs of a project manager is to manage the trade-offs among time, cost, and performance.To do so, project manager must defi

11、ne and understand the nature of the priorities of the project.編輯ppt13Project Priority Matrix編輯ppt14Step 3:Creating the Work Breakdown Structure Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) An hierarchical outline (map) that identifies the products and work elements involved in a project. Defines the relationship

12、of the final deliverable (the project) to its subdeliverables, and in turn, their relationships to work packages. Best suited for design and build projects that have tangible outcomes rather than process-oriented projects.2022-1-22編輯ppt15What is work breakdown structure ?Once the scope and deliverab

13、les have been identified. The work of the project can be successively subdivided into smaller and smaller work elements. The outcome of this hierarchical process is called the work breakdown structure (WBS)WBS is a map of the project.編輯ppt16Hierarchical Breakdown of the WBS* This breakdown groups wo

14、rk packages by type of work within a deliverable and allows assignment of responsibility to an organizational unit. This extra step facilitates a system for monitoring project progress (discussed in Chapter 13).編輯ppt17How WBS Helps the Project Manager WBS Facilitates evaluation of cost, time, and te

15、chnical performance of the organization on a project. Provides management with information appropriate to each organizational level. Helps in the development of the organization breakdown structure (OBS). which assigns project responsibilities to organizational units and individuals Helps manage pla

16、n, schedule, and budget. Defines communication channels and assists in coordinating the various project elements.編輯ppt18Work Breakdown Structure編輯ppt19Work Packages, each work package is a control point. A work package is the lowest level of the WBS. It is output-oriented in that it:Defines work (wh

17、at).Identifies time to complete a work package (how long).Identifies a time-phased budget to complete a work package (cost).Identifies resources needed to complete a work package (how much).Identifies a person responsible for units of work (who).1.Identifies monitoring points (milestones) for measur

18、ing success.編輯ppt20Step 4: Integrating the WBSwith the Organization Organizational Breakdown Structure (OBS) Depicts how the firm is organized to discharge its work responsibility for a project. Provides a framework to summarize organization work unit performance. Identifies organization units respo

19、nsible for work packages. Ties the organizational units to cost control accounts.編輯ppt21Integration of WBS and OBS編輯ppt22Step 5: Coding the WBS for the Information System WBS Coding System Defines: Levels and elements of the WBS Organization elements Work packages Budget and cost information Allows

20、reports to be consolidated at any level in the organization structure編輯ppt23WBS Coding編輯ppt24Responsibility Matrices Responsibility Matrix (RM) Also called a linear responsibility chart. Summarizes the tasks to be accomplished and who is responsible for what on the project. Lists project activities

21、and participants. Clarifies critical interfaces between units and individuals that need coordination. Provide an means for all participants to view their responsibilities and agree on their assignments. Clarifies the extent or type of authority that can be exercised by each participant.編輯ppt25Respon
