Abstract Project management consists of various tasks which helps to achieve organizational goals. It is a skill of using resources like time, people and money in order to meet customers’expectations. Project management involves planning, interacting with clients, handing team members. It is important as it gives strategic outputs, unique products or service The assets which are improved due to project management include: revenue, return on investment and net present value. This paper gives an insight on the topics like the importance and role of project management, the difference between portfolio, program and projects, the benefit of studying Project management Body of Knowledge and
gile project management methods have been widely proven, especially in IT projects, since their emergence in the 1990s. They are now widespread and appreciated for the many benefits they bring, especially in terms of time savings. and productivity. On the other hand, it is only in recent years that institutions such as market banks have been interested in it. If they do not necessarily adopt the entirety of an agile method, some concepts are nonetheless retained.
The control stage also begins necessary and need to continuously monitoring form here. The role of project manager is very important to help their team keep track on the activities, solving problems that occur to ensure the performance and progress. For instance, project manager will supervise their staffs, provide the necessary tools and resources for activities. Project manager also will review the performance of the project at the current position and notify stakeholders to take adjustments if there is a change (Miller, 2018).Closure stage, before closing out the project, project manager and team members need to review performance and compare the achievement goals to initial targets. If all the targets are met then the project manager will gather and finalize all results of the project and delivery all document for higher
Instead of creating detailed specifications for end products at the beginning of an endeavor, agile managers only identify priorities. As their teams work towards their goals, these managers remain flexible, communicate with all stakeholders, and change product requirements whenever necessary. The Agile PM methodology suits businesses that seek to quickly and consistently provide products to consumers. Software development companies prefer this “light-touch” management style which facilitates rapid production cycles. With this system, team leaders can create responsive and transparent workplace cultures.
But, there additional for one of the writer write the principles of the project management which are project goal, project timeline and order and project milestones. These principles of the project management already use long time ago. Nowadays, it is still use this principles as a guidelines for do the projects. Conclusion As the conclusion, the project management is the application of knowledge for the project manager to achieve the objective of the project. In this paper, there are a lot of sources that give a different principle in term of, whether in Information Technology Project Management or Project Management only.
An emerging trend in software development is the agile methodology. It provides more flexibility in software development process such as quick delivery, simple phases, concerning on changes of requirements and provide strong communication between developers and customers. All these factors are strongly contributes to a successful software development process [1]. However not only adopting the suitable agile method is the key success factor in software development but there are many success factors that contribute to the agile methods in order to higher the level of success of the software. In this paper we are going to survey the literature for the success factors of agile methods in software development, classify them into categories then into main success factor and sub success factors.
Once the agile methodologies were established the teams had a clear understanding of roles and responsibilities and their input required for the sprints and standup’s. Due to complete integration with the agile framework thee teams were able keep on track with the sprits for two weeks. Secondly, the biggest challenge would be communicate and collaborate cross functional teams. Introduction of agile with the project management helped the team understand the cross functional dependencies and inputs required. This help to harmonize and
Furthermore, there are some technologies that it can be used to make Agile and scrum effective. New versions may be built several times per day and all test must be run for each build and accepting if tests run successfully. Based on the iterative development, the needs and solutions are evolved between the self-organizing teams with cross functions through the collaboration which it is referred as the software development methodologies as a group. Agile development has been stated with the Agile Manifesto concepts which it has been developed in the industry of software. It encourages, the best practices in engineering which tends to deliver the software product with high quality inspection and adaptation frequently teamwork with philosophical leadership, accountability, self-organization, satisfaction of customer needs achieving the goals of the
We will describe in this chapter the development methodology chosen to conduct our project, and we will illustrate by then the different steps showing the technological, functional and technical aspects of the final product. \section{Scrum as a Development Methodology} In order to ensure a high quality product available to the customer, the team in which I had to integrate is basing on the principles of agile methods, specifically Scrum \cite{Scrum}. Scrum is an agile methodology that can be applied to nearly any project; however, the Scrum methodology is most often used in software development. The Scrum process is suited for projects with quickly changing or emergent needs. Scrum software development progresses via a series of iterations
INTRODUCTION The application of information, expertise, tools, and procedures to project activities to meet the project requirements is known as project management (PMBOK 2008). Alternatively, project management is the process in which projects are well-defined, planned, supervised, organized and conveyed such that the agreed features and requirements are fulfilled (APM BOK 2006). Success of IT projects is very much dependent on providing the anticipated product at the projected time, within budget, its desired performance levels, acknowledged by the client, offering at least the minimum agreed functionality i.e. meeting customer satisfaction, and delivering the promised benefits (Dalcher and Brodie, 2007). Whereas the failure of IT projects
