2.2.1 Attended dynamics:
Project management typically establishes a programs and the sequencing of activities for any project that are to be undertaken and should be studied before the planning of project. Then these activities are designed dynamically so as to implement in the management and project. Some of the attended dynamics are explained below:
1. Decision-making: decision making is one the most crucial and critical task in the dynamic management and they are the result from a large number of specialists, experienced contractors and senior management and others who involved in the project process(P.E.D. Love, Holt, Shen, Li, & Irani, 2002). They are interrelated with project organization and other works that are involved in project,

Project-related uncertainties: it includes the condition of location, changes in the contract, dynamic durations for activities, unexpected costs, uneven technical complexities, and resources availability and limitations.
2. Organization-related uncertainties: different project stages require different techniques and skills related with different contributors and resources. Participants of project may vary through the construction process.
3. Finance-related uncertainties: the financial capability/policies of a company may vary from time to time depending on the market value, market inflation and other changes. The changed financial status of any party within the project team can affect, or in the extreme even jeopardize, the project’s expected outcome.
4. Interest-related conflicts: although all project participants may appear to desire realization of project goals, the interactive constraints and interests among the disciplines may often give rise to conflict. Which can effect on the process of co-operation among them in dealing with changes and affect

Government-related uncertainties: In general the acts passed by government may be very costly to a client. The impact from a change in regulation can also affect the contractor’s profitability with respect to the act passed and the profit expected from project. For example, the enforcement of noise control policy may require the use of pneumatic plant in the installation and operations of piles rather than the application of percussive plant. As a consequence any extra costs will be either borne by the contractor and often by the subcontractor or passed on to the client. Furthermore, changes in taxation and interest rates can affect a project’s financial viability or its planning and execution.(P.E.D. Love et al.,
The project is about developing a civil engineering software. The main risk this project would have to be scheduling. Since the project has exactly the required resources it would be important to make sure that before completing the planning process the project team must make sure that their schedule are planned in order to complete the project in time. Since, even a small scheduling mistake would cause the project to be delayed which could increase the project’s budget.
The two major reasons for the inability to estimate costs accurately are the lack of knowledge of the work needed to meet the requirements of the contract (for example, research contracts which involve substantial uncertainties), and the lack of cost experience in performing work (for example, the development of a weapons system where manufacturing techniques and specifications are not stable enough to warrant a fixed-price
WEEK 3 COMPLETE: RISKS Jequilla Jones Bethel University Organizational Theory II Dr. Willis January 15, 2023 WEEK 3 COMPLETE: RISKS This essay will explain the importance of a baseline budget, management of project risks, closing project activities, and the importance of feedback. Businesses depend on contractors and project team members to estimate, perform activities, and complete tasks involved in the specific project. Project team members and contractors aim to perform the agreed-upon tasks and activities to complete the project for the customer. Certainly, satisfying the customer is the main goal, and learning while performing tasks is knowledge gained for future projects. BASELINE BUDGET
Poor Change Control management. Failure to understanding impact changes and changes are constraint in Projects. Denver should have had a proper change management process that is robust enough to control changes. This could have eliminated the complexity introduced by various changes that took place on project 4. Why did United Airlines decided to act as the project manger for the baggage handling system on Concourse B?
Contracts are issues in the first quarter of the year, and construction done in the last half of the year. Often, the prices of the commodities have increase, and the allowed price adjustment does not cover the increase (Erer,
Address any variances in budget reporting from previous reporting period. Include: (1) Estimated Total Project Budget, (2) Estimated Construction Budget, and (3) Dollars Expended to Date. If there is a Financing Agreement for this project, provide an update. If none, indicate that. Section 5 – Project Scope and/or Quality Items Indicate any adjustments or considerations that impact or change the project scope or quality (such as pending change orders, standards waivers, etc.)
13 PROCUREMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN Under the Monrovia Ultra-Modern Market (MUMM) the Project Manager will be responsible for the oversight and supervision for all procurement related activities. For a successful end of the MUMM project the Project Manager will coordinate with the team to identify items to be procured. The office of the Project Management will review the list of items to be procured and further submit to the supply chain department. Supply chain than review the listing of items to be procured and coordinate with the program team to begin the procurement processes.
This type of contract is preferred when there is uncertainty in the scope of work, or when the types of the materials, labor, and equipments are being similarly uncertain in nature. 4- Incentive contracts Incentive contracts feature compensation which depends on the contracting/engineering performance in accord with an agreed target, schedule, quality, and/or budget. 5- Percentage of construction contract
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).
To organise for project management requires an understanding of the organisation’s architecture which includes the organisational hierarchy - the grouping of internal business units, the authority lines and interaction with one another. Each of these aspects should be designed to support project management within the organisation. Structure should follow strategy or else it may impede communication, coordination and decision making which are all key to success (Brevis, 2014, p. 224). Hence, an important function of upper management is to support project teams by either redesigning the organisation to emphasize projects or integrating projects into the current organisation (Graham & Englund, 2004).
By being fully aware of its function and implications is an important aspect of the project manager’s role and responsibility. The triple constraint is meant to be an asset to the project manager’s arsenal and should not be viewed as a hindrance. This assignment has shown about how and the importance of comprehensive evaluation on the Triple Constraint (Time, Cost, Scope) in a project under uncertainty situation. We introduce an index called as Project Reliability.
This paper will discuss the single most important factor that you must considered when selecting a project. The sole most important factor to consider when selecting a project is project selection. Understanding how to select acceptable projects and why selecting the correct projects to work on is important and sometimes challenging for an organization to archive. An effective project selection process will determine if the organization in question is doing the right thing. When selecting a project, organizations need to make sure that the project has a manageable scope.
The different communication methods are used for different audiences in Atlantis project management including Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) for real-time inventory and shipping communications, e-mail or regular mail for business communications, ProjectWeb as the main information interface for information transactions, telephone or web conferences for meetings. Partnering requires high commitment to change by all project team members to work in a team environment with “win-win” relationships, which will result in better quality project and performances, increased probability of timely and on-budget completion of project and reduced risk of claims and litigation. The mutual benefits gained by partnering members of Atlantis project acted as incentives and provided team motivation to achieve optimum project goals, and
Reflective Journal Student Name: Talita Silva Lima Programme: Higher Diploma in Science – Cloud Computing Month: July 1. Project Management In this section I will explain in detail my project management through a Gantt Chart and what I have done since my last journal until now, how my time management is going in order to delivery this project before the deadline and some of my achievements.
In addition to that, internal project management and external project management are the two major job roles of a project manager. Both the project managements help a company to get the things done within a limited timeframe, budget and other specifications. Also, they help project managers to find and assess risks and determine the value level creating for stakeholders [5]. Internal project management is when you select members from the company itself to handle and monitor the projects of your business. These members are the finest persons from the company pool who are able to manage the projects due to their expertise and competences.
