Project management process
The project management process consists of five components:
- Analysis - Determining the business issues and assets
- Design - Design a solution that resolves the business issues identified during the Analysis phase
- Build - Develop and test the solution
- Deploy - Implement the solution into the organisation to be used by the business users
- Operate - Maintain the implemented solution to ensure it meets the business needs on a daily basis
Knowledge of the discipline of project management in a performance application environment is vital to the success of the project. Our methodology revolves around the creation of a project management toolkit, which encompasses the gathering together and integration of key project planning components, including:
- Work breakdown structures
- Schedule
- Budget
- Test plan
- Staffing plan
- Communications plan
- Risk response plan
- Project Controls
With these components, the project plan can provide the baseline against which progress is measured and changes are controlled. Application of our project management toolkit covers areas such as:
- Activity Goals
- Review And Progress Reporting
- Change Control
- Risk Control – Issues & Observation Log
- Resource Coordination
- Phase Sign Off
- Project Processes
