Background
of the project management methodology
A project
is a one off activity that will never be exactly repeated, which has
a defined start point and a defined end point. Project management
is the process by which the project is planned, monitored and delivered.
Thereby meeting the requirements of the desired outcome, usually in
terms of time, cost and quality.
The project management methodology
This project
management methodology describes an idealised product development
process. It has been developed with the firm belief that good product
quality can only be delivered through a robust and thorough product
development process. This process takes a product centric viewpoint
that builds quality into the product as it is developed.
A relatively high level
process is described whereby a series of tasks are completed prior
to a project gateway where the status of these tasks is formally reviewed,
documented and approved by the business. When a gateway is approved
the product delivery can move on to the next set of tasks and activities.
However, if the requirements of the gateway are not met the project
should be paused until those deliverables are completed to the desired
standard.
The project management training course
This one day on-site training
course explains how to successfully operate the project
management process module. The intent of this and all our training
courses is not to tell or show the trainees what to do but to impart
the capability to perform the required tasks. There is no limit to
the number of trainees but we strongly recommend no more than 5 individuals
attend per course. We find that if there are any more than this the
training becomes ineffective and wasteful.
This course is targeted
at the product design engineers, the manufacturing engineers and the
programme managers delivering new products. This training course is
given in English. All our courses are designed to be informal and
are based around a series of discussions and practical exercises.
