Monitor & Control Monitor & Control Monitor & Control Monitor & Control consists of the processes used to track, review, and orchestrate project progress, identify areas where changes are required, and initiate/implement those changes Unlike Scoping and Executing, Monitor & Control applies to the entire life-cycle of the project, as shown above 2 Monitor & Control CDOT Process Groups and Project Delivery Plan Mapping Transition to Project Delivery Plan Execute Monitor & Control Construction 1 Risk Management Monitor & Control Risks Transfer Active Risks 2 Roles & Responsibilities 3 Scope Management Monitor & Control Scope 4 Cost Management Control Costs 5 Schedule Management Control Schedule 6 Change Management Control Changes 7 Procurement Management Manage Procurements Control Contracts/TOs Closeout Contracts/TOs 8 Communications Manage Control Communications Transfer information Management Communications 9 Quality Management Conduct Quality Assurance Control Quality 10 Transition to Best Practices Archive Construction Records 3 Monitor & Control The following topics will be discussed: • How does a Project Manager Monitor and Control a project? • Change Management • Summary 4 Monitor & Control PMs monitor and control projects by: • Regularly communicating with the project team (team meetings) • Updating/reviewing/analyzing tracking tools as planned in the PDP, including the AID-Change Log, etc., as well as the Risk Workbook • Reviewing/updating project status via systems (SAP) and reports 5 Monitor & Control: SAP Project Portal Project information is available in SAP via the Project Portal 6 Monitor & Control: SAP Project Portal A ‘one-stop shop’ for preconstruction and construction data including: project, personnel, funding, end dates, budget, milestones and construction drawdowns and expenditures, etc. 7 Monitor & Control: SAP Project Portal Keeping Project Data up to date is important for a number of reasons. Project data is rolled up and reported by Residencies, Programs, Regions, & Portfolios, in a series of reports that support “management by exception.” (vs. exceptional) This one of 10 standard reports now available on a Google Team Drive and distributed to PMO Reps. 8 Monitor & Control: SAP Project Portal How might your project end up as an “exception?” • Missing or out-of-date milestones • Drawdowns not equal to Form 65 • Current date exceeds FHWA end date • Contractor plans to spend more than amount encumbered (for Incrementally Encumbered projects only) 9 Monitor & Control: Cost Monitor Costs: • Make sure that only staff working on the project are charging to it • Compare Expenditures to Budgeted amounts – Identify variances – how much work has been accomplished compared to expenditures? – Monitor balance – is the budget sufficient? Project Planned 10 Monitor & Control: Cost Cost Monitoring also applies to the construction budget. As a project progresses through the preconstruction milestones: • Use the PCPT to update the Base Estimate for Construction Items • Compare the revised estimate to the Project Planned budget 11 Monitor & Control: Schedule Update the Schedule with changes and actual progress: • Compare dates to the current Baseline Schedule (reflects approved changes) for: – Deliverables – Milestones, etc. • Monitor the critical path and changes in float/slack for the Ad Date as compared to the Late Ad Date Remember to update Forecast Milestones in SAP 12 Monitor & Control: Change Management When changes are identified, implement the Change Management Plan: • Analyze impact of the proposed change to schedule, costs, scope • Comply with documentation and approval requirements • Escalate decision-making as needed Follow the Communication Plan to notify: • Project Team • Management • Internal & External Stakeholders 13 Summary Monitor and Control includes the processes that help a PM: • Track the status of a project • Identify and analyze changes • Properly implement changes 14 Questions/Discussion 15.

  • How Is Your Leadership Changing? Margaret Wheatley ©2005
    How is Your Leadership Changing? Margaret Wheatley ©2005 I'm sad to report that in the past few years, ever since uncertainty became our insistent 21st century companion, leadership has taken a great leap backwards to the familiar territory of command and control. Some of this was to be expected, because humans usually default to the known when confronted with the unknown. Some of it was a surprise, because so many organizations had focused on innovation, quality, learning organizations, and human motivation. How did they fail to learn that whenever you impose control on people and situations, you only succeed in turning people into non-creative, shut-down and cynical workers? The destructive impact of command and control The dominance of command and control is having devastating impacts. There has been a dramatic increase in worker disengagement, few organizations are succeeding at solving problems, and leaders are being scapegoated and fired. Most people associate command and control leadership with the military. Years ago, I worked for the U.S. Army Chief of Staff. I, like most people, thought I'd see command and control leadership there. The great irony is that the military learned long ago that, if you want to win, you have to engage the intelligence of everyone involved in the battle. The Army had a visual reminder of this when, years ago, they developed new tanks and armored vehicles that traveled at unprecedented speeds of fifty miles an hour. When first used in battle during the first Gulf War, several times troops took off on their own, speeding across the desert at high speed.

  • Quality Management
    DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES ENTERPRISE PERFORMANCE LIFE CYCLE FRAMEWORK <OPDIV Logo> PPPRRRAAACCCTTTIIICCCEEESSS GGGUUUIIIDDDEEE QUALITY MANAGEMENT Issue Date: <mm/dd/yyyy> Revision Date: <mm/dd/yyyy> Document Purpose This Practices Guides is a brief document that provides an overview describing the best practices, activities, attributes, and related templates, tools, information, and key terminology of industry-leading project management practices and their accompanying project management templates. This guide is focused on practices that should be applied to ensure the project will satisfy business needs, objectives, and requirements. Background The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Enterprise Performance Life Cycle (EPLC) is a framework to enhance Information Technology (IT) governance through rigorous application of sound investment and project management principles and industry’s best practices. The EPLC provides the context for the governance process and describes interdependencies between its project management, investment management, and capital planning components. The Quality Management Plan is an important component of a Project Management Plan deliverable. The discipline of quality management complements project management with its focus on customer satisfaction, prevention of defects over inspection, management responsibility, and continuous improvement. Practice Overview Project Managers should assume responsibility for the development of quality policies for the project and the coordination of related activities, in compliance with any organizational and/or regulatory standards. A Quality Management Plan documents this information and describes the authorities, policies, tools and techniques that are specific to ensuring project excellence, reducing cost and eliminating unnecessary corrections and/or changes. It is important to note that the concept of quality does not necessarily require perfection.

    121314 – Journal of Legal Issues and Cases in Business Internal control and human resource management : Closing the loop James Schaefer University of Evansville Rania Mousa University of Evansville ABSTRACT Internal control continues to be a major emphasis for most organizations. Under Sarbanes-Oxley, publicly traded companies must perform a fraud risk assessment and assess related controls. Smaller organizations and private companies are realizing improvements in effectiveness and efficiency of operations through implementation of internal control systems. Within the Committee of Sponsoring Organization s (COSO) internal control-integrated framework, control environment s set the tone of the organization by influencing the control consciousness of employees . The control environment is the foundation of an effective system of internal control. Internal control is more than policy and procedure ; it a process effected by peop le throughout the organization. Within the COSO framework, every member of the organization is responsible for internal control. Organizations whose leaders are able to attract and retain good people will be more likely to implement a successful system of internal control. One of the best ways to maintain a good workforce is to have sound human resource management, which includes having employment policies and procedures that comply with the state and federal employment regulations . Keywords: internal con trol, employment law, human resource management, Sarbanes -Oxley Act Internal control, Page 1 121314 – Journal of Legal Issues and Cases in Business BACKGROUND Managers and those charged with corporate governance often look for ways to improve organizational performance as well as comply with applicable laws and regulations. Internal control, which serves many purposes, is one way to help organizations realize improve d performance.

Project quality management (QM) is not a separate, independent process that occurs at the end of an activity to measure the level of quality of the output. It is not purchasing the most expensive material or services available on the market. Quality and grade are not the same, grade are characteristics of a material or service such as additional features. A product may be of good quality (no defects) and be of low grade (few or no extra features). Quality management is a continuous process that starts and ends with the project. It is more about preventing and avoiding than measuring and fixing poor quality outputs. It is part of every project management processes from the moment the project initiates to the final steps in the project closure phase.

    The Eight Key Dimensions of Platform Product Management 1 Successful tech companies like Amazon, Google, and Alibaba are unleashing profound global macroeconomic changes through their platform-based business models. But this is not just a tech industry phenomenon. Industry leaders across all market segments are building platforms to seize new opportunities for growth and capital rewards. In fact, 81 percent of executives say platform-based business models will be core to their growth strategy within three years.1 However, managing a platform is different than managing an application and the methods, techniques and skills of product management in these two environments are distinct. 2 The two main objectives of platforms are The core responsibility of the acceleration and extended value.

  • Management, Managerialism and Managers
    Cunliffe-3864-Ch-01:Cunliffe-Ch-01 3/4/2009 4:55 PM Page 8 1 Management, Managerialism and Managers When I was asked to write this book, there was some debate about the title: should it be about management, managers or managing people? Why was this an issue? We often use the terms interchange - ably without necessarily thinking about the implications or conse - quences. But I believe language is important. This is not just a semantic or an intellectual issue, it’s also a practical one, because whether we are aware of it or not, words do things – they influence and play out in our actions and relationships. Consider how a person’s actions and ways of speaking and relating to other organizational members change in overt and subtle ways when she or he becomes a ‘manager’ and part of a management team. So it’s worth spending some time exploring these differences and examining their potential practical consequences. The purpose of this chapter is to examine the often taken-for-granted and generally narrow ways in which we think about management, and to offer some alternative ways of thinking about what managers do and who managers are. We’ll touch on the relationship between management and language in this chapter, but go on to explore this in more depth in Chapter 2. To begin with some brief definitions: management is a collective noun used to refer to a group of people engaged in organizing and con - trolling a business or, as Tony Watson and Pauline Harris (1999) say, management is a requirement and outcome of any work organization.
