Project Management PMBOK 6th edition

No pre-requisite required

Suitable for individuals or group work

Duration: 8 -12 hours

Project management PMBOK 6th edition is critical to the timely closure of any project.  Without detailed management of the deadlines, milestones, and the activities and their sequences that are required to deliver the desired products or services, they may not come to fruition.

The scheduling of activities revolves around many factors including the resources necessary and their availability.  Resource optimization is often used to revise activity start and end dates, according to the resource availability. 

Determining the mandatory dependencies is essential to project management.  Mandatory dependencies are actions that are dependent on previous actions.  As an example, the paint cannot be scheduled until after the product is assembled.  Discretionary dependencies are based on the “best practices” for a desired outcome, when another method is available.

Estimating activity durations is also a focus of this phase of the project management.  This process requires the considerations of the skill levels of the team members, resources that will be required, along with the techniques that will be used to accomplish the required tasks.  This estimation is based on the amount of effort to complete the activity and the available resources to determine the number of work periods that will be necessary.

• Project Integration Management
