I am amazed to see the changes occurring in Project management nowadays. The pace of change today and the level of communication mean that projects now face challenges that didn't exist. So let us discuss what are the changes we can see in Project management which is helping us to do things more properly

Enhanced Requirements Metrics

idea posted by Samir Das Tech Architect, Infosys

Due to the recent economic meltdown, we need to accurately assess and evaluate the organizational and cost impact of project requirements which can bring a greater role for requirements management and development. Project and portfolio managers can use to assess the economic, performance and feasibility value of each project component will become essential to organizations successfully maximizing the ROI of their projects. This kind of metrics plays an important role today........

I agree to Samir's comments and in addition to that, it would be better, if there is Continuous Improvement Plans (CIPs), along with the deliverables to the client.

Thanks Pratyush for commenting,indeed honesty and hardwork of the participant is required for the success of a project.But one more think--Group work and collaboration among the participants complete understanding among them is equally required for the success of the project.Thats what i think

Hi 

The changes what is happening around me and my team is following:

1. Multi Location, Multi Vendor team for the given project. The challenge is to cope up with the overall team members and vendor responsabile for each part of the project

2. Business and IT teams should have one view

3. Too many key business stakeholders, so there is mis match in scope and business case some times

4. Cost & Schedule over run (65% project are still failing on these parametrers)

5. PMO Metrics Collections, Audit Report, Process Compilence

6. PM Software - apart from MS PRoject, need to use PRimvera, etc...

7. Management Dash Board/Score Card

Extensive Use of soft ware for Project Management

idea posted by Mallaya Pandravada GM-Project , GSSInfraTech Pvt Ltd

The use of the soft ware for Project Management is increased exponentially. With the projects being more complex and time being the essence the manipulation of the resources for effective execution of the project is the need of the day.

Nowadays project management soft wares like Primavera and MS Project are used extensively to crack these complex Project Management Functions having more resource variables.

Dear Samir I meant the use of PM soft wares will decrease the complexity of Project management.I edited my previous messageand corrected accordingly.

But i don't think it will effect the complexity of the project management

Add your argument:

Project Managers are Back to Basics

idea posted by Dipen Trivedi Project Manager, 3i Infotech

According to me Project managers will increase their emphasis on the basics, taking a first-things-first approach and address fundamentals such as gaining and sustaining executive commitment, addressing gaps in the alignment of organizational strategy and projects, project selection, and efficient measurement process while leveraging existing resources to increase project success.

Hi,

I beleive without basic we can't rid off project complexity, yes we have to more focus of robust training for project management tools.Unfortuanetly in India you can't get best corporate training. I had gone number of traning from my organsiation whether it's new technology or new tool, but it's useless. Even I put my comment on feedback but HR never see seriously. This is another reason I support go for basic.

Business Savvy

idea posted by Jayant Havanur, PMP Technical Manager, Applied Materials

Project managers are being increasingly business savvy and are playing instrumental roles in influencing divisional/department and organizational strategies. This is one the biggest changes I see for a Project manager.
