What is SAP PS (Project Systems) Module What is SAP PS (Project Systems) Module SAP Project systems module (SAP PS) is an integrated project management tool that monitors all aspects of your project system and other SAP application components. SAP PS ensures that organization’s business process are to be handled efficiently and quickly. It can handle both small scale and large scale projects of an organization. In business scenario, everything is viewed as a project. Projects are generally complex, unique and involve a high risks. The managing of project with efficiently comes from having the right information available when it is needed as well as implementing an automated data processing to deal with project. What exactly SAP project systems do? SAP PS helps in planning, controlling and collects cost and revenues through structures (WBS). The important functionality of SAP PS module is to manage all stages of project very efficiently from planning stage to completion stage. SAP PS Integration SAP PS module is fully integrated with other SAP R/3 modules such asS AP HCM (Human Capital Management), SAP SD (Sales & Distribution), SAP PP (Production Planning), SAP PM (Plant Maintenance), SAP FICO (Financial Accounting), SAP IM (Investment Management), SAP MM (Material Management) and with various SAP R/3 applications. The integration of PS with other modules enables to plan and execute all the tasks associated with a project. Through integration ,PS module can access the data from the departments involved in a project and provides consistent real time data. SAP Project systems components The important components of SAP project systems module are 1. Structures 2. Cost 3. Dates 4. Resources 5. Materials – MRP, BOM 6.

Identifying and Defining Relationships: Techniques for Improving Student Systemic Thinking
AC 2011-897: IDENTIFYING AND DEFINING RELATIONSHIPS: TECH- NIQUES FOR IMPROVING STUDENT SYSTEMIC THINKING Cecelia M. Wigal, University of Tennessee, Chattanooga Cecelia M. Wigal received her Ph.D. in 1998 from Northwestern University and is presently a Professor of Engineering and Assistant Dean of the College of Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC). Her primary areas of interest and expertise include complex process and system analysis, process improvement analysis, and information system analysis with respect to usability and effectiveness. Dr. Wigal is also interested in engineering education reform to address present and future student and national and international needs. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2011 Identifying and Defining Relationships: Techniques for Improving Student Systemic Thinking Abstract ABET, Inc. is looking for graduating undergraduate engineering students who are systems thinkers. However, genuine systems thinking is contrary to the traditional practice of using linear thinking to help solve design problems often used by students and many practitioners. Linear thinking has a tendency to compartmentalize solution options and minimize recognition of relationships between solutions and their elements. Systems thinking, however, has the ability to define the whole system, including its environment, objectives, and parts (subsystems), both static and dynamic, by their relationships. The work discussed here describes two means of introducing freshman engineering students to thinking systemically or holistically when understanding and defining problems. Specifically, the modeling techniques of Rich Pictures and an instructor generated modified IDEF0 model are discussed. These techniques have roles in many applications. In this case they are discussed in regards to their application to the design process.

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.

To address the issue of making a strategic justification or 'business case' for these technologies, an organizational decision-making methodology that incorporates the strategies of the firm is needed, among other requirements. A research and development approach that integrates Quality Function Deployment and IDEF0 functional modeling to determine the requirements and processes for the justification methodology is presented. This approach has implications for future research and development for similar organizational decision-support processes and business-process reengineering.

Quality Management Process © for [Project Name]
Project Quality Management Process © For [Project Name] Project Quality Management Process 1 Introduction The Project Quality Management Process is followed during the Execution phase of the Project Management Life Cycle as each deliverable is completed, prior to customer sign-off. What is a Quality Management Process? A Quality Management Process is a method by which the quality of deliverables and processes is assured and controlled during the project. This process entails completing a variety of review techniques and implementing a set of corrective actions to address any deficiencies and raise the quality levels within the project. The Quality Management Process involves: Listing the quality targets to achieve (from the Quality Review Form) Identifying the types of quality measurement techniques to be undertaken Measuring deliverable and process quality (via Quality Assurance and Quality Control) Taking action to enhance the level of deliverable and process quality Reporting the level of quality attained to project management When to use a Quality Management Process Although Quality Assurance methods may be initiated prior to the Execution phase, Quality Control techniques are implemented during the actual construction of each physical deliverable. Without a formal Quality Management Process in place, the basic premise of delivering the project to meet „time, cost and quality‟ targets may be compromised. © The Quality Management Process is terminated only when all of the deliverables and management processes have been completed and approved prior to project closure. 1.1 Instructions Not all sections in this document will apply due to the uniqueness of each project.If a particular section is not applicable; enter NA (Not Applicable) to indicate that you have at least considered this section.

Capturing the Value of Project Management Through Decision Making August 2015
Capturing the Value of PROJECT MANAGEMENT Through Decision Making 2015 Pulse of the Profession®: Capturing the Value of Project Management Through Decision Making August 2015 MAKING EFFECTIVE DECISIONS Good decisions lead to great things: Henry Ford’s decision to double the wages of his autoworkers, paving the way for the growth of the middle class and changing the U.S. economy for the next century. Bad decisions lead to disaster: Kodak’s decision not to release the digital camera they invented in 1975, leaving the door open for competitors and leading to the company’s bankruptcy. Actions like these force us to examine our decision-making effectiveness. As we rethink this issue, I remember what my good friend J. Davidson Frame points out in his book, Framing Decisions—our attention should focus on two things: “First, it is important to recognize that decision making is a social activity. It is rooted in people and should not be approached as an objective process detached from human factors. … Second, decision makers must recognize that decisions are the end product of wrestling with constraints: constraints of knowledge, time, resources, skills, political forces, legacy, laws of nature, human laws, ethics, personalities, and more. Effective decision making requires decision makers to surface these constraints and figure out how to craft workable decisions that accommodate them.” With this latest Pulse of the Profession® in-depth report, we wanted to better understand the conditions and processes by which decisions, both good and bad, impact the outcomes of projects and programs. The good news, as we expected, is that sound decisions lead to better project outcomes.

PM World Journal Project Quality Management for Project Managers Vol. IV, Issue VII – July 2015 T. D. Jainendrakumar www.pmworldjournal.net Advisory Project Quality Management for Project Managers By Dr. T D Jainendrakumar Quality Management: Quality is the degree to which the project fulfills requirements. It includes creating and following policies and procedures in order to ensure that a project meets the defined needs it was intended to meet. Quality Theorists . Joseph Juan’s theory was based on 80/20 principle; he has told that the top management involvement is a must to maintain quality. Quality is fitness for use. W. Edwards Deming has put forward 14 steps of total Quality Management; he has described Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle. Philip Crosby’s theory says Cost of poor quality has to be taken care while producing a product, always prevention is better than cure that is “prevention over inspection” and zero defects. Quality is “conformance to requirements” (Just read from other books and have common understanding about other Quality Gurus also) . Armand. V. Feigenbaum says Quality is a customer determination, not an engineer's determination, not a marketing determination, [nlor a general management determination. It is based upon the customer's actual experience with the product or service, measured against his or her requirements-stated or unstated, conscious or merely sensed, technically operational or entirely subjective-and always representing a moving target in a competitive market. Kaoru Ishikawa. Ishikawa makes it clear the proof of high quality is the satisfaction of ever changing consumer expectations. Ishikawa's essential points are: 1.

Sdlc/Sdlc V Model.Htm Copyright © Tutorialspoint.Com
SSDDLLCC -- VV--MMOODDEELL http://www.tutorialspoint.com/sdlc/sdlc_v_model.htm Copyright © tutorialspoint.com The V - model is SDLC model where execution of processes happens in a sequential manner in V- shape. It is also known as Verification and Validation model. V - Model is an extension of the waterfall model and is based on association of a testing phase for each corresponding development stage. This means that for every single phase in the development cycle there is a directly associated testing phase. This is a highly disciplined model and next phase starts only after completion of the previous phase. V- Model design Under V-Model, the corresponding testing phase of the development phase is planned in parallel. So there are Verification phases on one side of the .V. and Validation phases on the other side. Coding phase joins the two sides of the V-Model. The below figure illustrates the different phases in V-Model of SDLC. Verification Phases Following are the Verification phases in V-Model: Business Requirement Analysis: This is the first phase in the development cycle where the product requirements are understood from the customer perspective. This phase involves detailed communication with the customer to understand his expectations and exact requirement. This is a very important activity and need to be managed well, as most of the customers are not sure about what exactly they need. The acceptance test design planning is done at this stage as business requirements can be used as an input for acceptance testing. System Design: Once you have the clear and detailed product requirements, it.s time to design the complete system.

Chapter-3 Lecture Deck
MGMT 4135 Project Management Chapter-3 Organization Structure & Culture 1 Chapter-3 Organization Structure and Culture How will approved projects be implemented? • Three different project management structures to choose from: 1. Functional organization 2. Projectized or dedicated teams 3. Matrix structure 2 Chapter-3 Organization Structure and Culture How will approved projects be implemented? • Functional Organization 1. Even though top management decides to implement the project, implementation and coordination is managed by functional management. 2. One functional area plays a dominate role or has a dominate interest in the success of the project 3. While several functional organizations may have a role in the project the overall project will be managed within the normal hierarchy. 4. The project will be part of the working agenda of top management. 3 Chapter-3 Organization Structure and Culture How will approved projects be implemented? • Functional Organization Advantages 1. No change. Projects are managed within the functional structure of the organization to administer and complete project. No radical change in the operations of the parent company; status quo. 2. Flexibility: Specialists in different functional units can temporarily work on the project then return to their normal work. 3. In-Depth Expertise: The functional unit is assigned primary responsibility and in-depth experts within the unit can concentrate on the most crucial aspects of the project. 4. Easy Port-Project Transition: Normal career paths within a function division remain intact. The functional unit worked on it and they maintained it after being implemented. 4 Chapter-3 Organization Structure and Culture How will approved projects be implemented? • Functional Organization Disadvantages 1.
