The Project Management Standard
The project management standard as published by PMI has matured over many years with contributions from the project management fraternity associated and aligned to PMI. The PMBOK Guide is in its 6th edition and as a science is not expected to deviate radically from the tried and tested. Technology supporting the science of project management however may see some radical change in time to come.
Integration Management
The first of the ten knowledge areas within the science of project management. Integration aligns the other knowledge areas to ensure quality planning and delivery take place. Work in the other knowledge areas, at times, is done in isolation, Integration Management ensures total integration of all project plans.
Scope Management
The expectation is the root of all disappointment. Scope Management ensures that realistic expectations are contracted and then ensures that all stakeholder expectations are met at the project and product level.
Schedule Management
Develop complete and accurate schedules, including network diagrams, project calendars, and associated key performance indicators.
Cost Management
Why is it that human nature dictates such that costing is mostly over-inflated? We have a unique method to teach Earned Value Management!
Quality Management
In the eye of the beholder. The customer dictates quality. Organizational or business quality initiatives are driven by upper management, the project manager takes responsibility for project and product quality.
Resource Management
Resource allocation and optimal management, one of Davis&Dean’s many specialties. Time-phased planning and execution of resource plans are achieved through the optimal application of control tools including earned value management.
Communications Management
Communication – not waiting for somebody to finish their sentence so that one can get to speak. Structuring effective communication to stakeholder requirements, ensuring open, honest and transparent communications.
Risk Management
The absence of risk management makes project management the most taught and least learned subject. Learn to integrate proper risk management in day-to-day managing of projects and you will not be running from one crisis to the next.
Management Theories
What really makes projects succeed? People do not abandon poor
Procurement Management
Build or buy? Manufacture on-site or transport finished goods?
Project Management Ethics
Project Management – a serious profession! We are value-driven, and also strive to do the right thing, before we focus on doing things right. Our core values: Responsibility, Respect, Fairness
