Hot to pass the subject

Attendance is not obligatory but is advisable.
Hot to pass the subject
Base method

The final test the most important

Active participation in exercises during lessons

Alternative methods

Preparing presentations on selected topics related to the project

management

The final grade is based on the test result but isn't the same
as the result of the test. It could be greater than the result
of the test if you will have extra points.
There is no makeup test. If you don't pass the test you will
have an individual interview.
Special cases will be considered specially on the assumption
that the teacher is always right

THE DEFINITION OF "PROJECT

MANAGEMENT"
Wojciech Bujalski 2015

10

PROJEKT

has its beginning and end

has limited resources is required for the
implementation certain measures
Its has defined/limited scope (defined scope and
expected quality)
Unique
Wojciech Bujalski 2015

11

Project

project is unique, with something new

concerning:
new task in terms of engineering (such as new
construction, product, service)
is performed for other customers (clients)
be implemented in other environments
is carried out by a team who had not been in such a
project

Wojciech Bujalski 2015

12

Project

If it is unique you need to take into account the:

RISK
THE EFFORT (because it is implemented as
"prototype")
COMPLEX (sometimes it is complex and implemented
with limitations that may vary over time)

Wojciech Bujalski 2015

13

Project

that the effect of the implementation of the

project is the change

Wojciech Bujalski 2015

14

Definition based on PMBOK

The Project
is e temporary endeavour undertaken to create a unique product,
service, or result. The temporary nature of projects indicates a
definite beginning and end. The end is reached when the projects
objectives have been achieved or when the project is terminated
because its objectives will not or cannot be met, or when the need
for the project no longer exist.
Temporary does not necessarily mean short in duration
Temporary does not generally apply to the product, service, or result
created by the project
Most projects are undertaken to create a lasting outcome. For example, a
project to build a national monument will create a result expected to last
centuries. Project can also have social, economical, and environmental
impacts that far outlast the projects themselves
Wojciech Bujalski 2015

15

Definition based on PMBOK

Project management
The application of knowledge, skills, tools, and
techniques to project activities to meet the project
requirements. Project management is
accomplished through the appropriate application
and integration of the 42 logically grouped project
management processes comprising to 5 Process
Groups. These 5 Process Groups are

Initiating
Planning
Executing
Monitoring and Controlling
Closing

the project is not?

is not something which is done by repeating the steps

set this is the PROCESS of
the production process, the process of animal husbandry,
the process of printing and distribution of the press,
customer service, employee service process, the process of
supplies of spare parts,
is not one activity and not a collection of similar activities
even if they do not form intentionally realized sequence of
actions - the implementation of such single/separate
activities is a FUNCTION
functions accounting services, human resources,
purchasing department, quality control, transport,
Wojciech Bujalski 2015

Example

Car production
Is an process

Car production rate of 100 thousand. Annually

Is an process

Achieving production capacity of 100 thousand

cars. per year (within 5 years)
Is An project

To produce 100 thousand. cars in one year

Is an project

History of project management

The History of Project Management is the history of mega projects of the last 4,500
years that include:

the Giza Pyramid,

the Parthenon,
the Colosseum,
the Gothic Cathedrals of Europe,
the Taj Mahal,
and the Transcontinental Railway.

These were not anomalies in history but projects delivered in a systematic way with
very similar characteristics to todays projects. Typically, they had a project charter, a
business justification, and a project sponsor. In close analysis they also followed a
similar life-cycle of phases that we use today, incorporating the Project Management
Process Groups (initiating, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and
closing). In close examination they also intuitively followed all nine PMBOK
knowledge areas (Integration, Scope, Time, Cost, Quality, Human Resources,
Communications, Risk, and Procurement).

Metodologie Project Management

There are six variables involved in any project, and therefore six
aspects of project performance to be managed:
Costs
Timescales
Quality
Scope
Risk
Benefits
PRINCE2 is an integrated framework of processes and themes
that addresses the planning, delegation, monitoring and control
of all these six aspects of project performancePRINCE2
