Project management - flavour of the month?
Down-sizing
Delayering
Loss of organisationalintelligence
Loss of ability toimplement change

In many bureaucratic organisations, all projects were IT projects

A different view of PM
Out-sourcing
Supplier side(technical management)
Customer side(contract management)

Some consequences
■ Growth in interest in PM■ Professional bodies
– Association for Project Management (UK)
– Project Management Institute (US)– developing bodies of knowledge (BOK)
![Page 6: Bob Hughes University of Brighton](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042607/5599dee71a28abf7248b45c2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

More consequences
■ Qualifications– PMI, APM, ISEB, BCS Diploma, NVQ/SVQ,
Institute of Management
■ New kids on the block– DSDM (Dynamic Systems Development
Method) project manager examination– ISEB Programme and Project Support
Office qualification

More consequences■ ‘Standards’
– PRINCE 2 - CCTA, APM etc.,– BS 6079 - British Standards Institution
– ISO 10006– ISO 12207
■ Backdoor approach to getting some structure back - Programme Management and Project Support Office

Programme management
Programme brief
‘Vision statement’
‘Blueprint’ projects
Project portfolio
Benefits managementsuccess = good development + good operation

PRINCE2 versus BS6079
PRINCE ■ procedures■ neologisms■ products■ project delivers
products
BS6079■ techniques (e.g.
NPV, EVA)■ traditional
terminology■ activities■ ‘project’ includes
operation

New paradigms: DSDMthe nine characteristics■ active user involvement■ development team empowerment■ frequent product delivery■ business fitness is key■ iterative/incremental development
![Page 12: Bob Hughes University of Brighton](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042607/5599dee71a28abf7248b45c2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

DSDM characteristics - contd.■ All changes reversible■ requirement set at high level only■ testing integrated throughout life-cycle■ collaboration between stakeholders
![Page 13: Bob Hughes University of Brighton](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042607/5599dee71a28abf7248b45c2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

project management implications of DSDM
■ control on products and requirements■ time-boxing: fixed time-scales - contrast
with critical chain■ need to manage and motivate user
involvement■ MORE management needed not less

Grady Booch
■ Projects can be driven primarily by– calendar– requirements
– documentation– quality– architecture
![Page 15: Bob Hughes University of Brighton](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042607/5599dee71a28abf7248b45c2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

DSDM and the Booch taxonomy■ RAD/DSDM seems to be essentially
– calendar driven i.e. ‘characterized by an obsessive focus on schedule’
■ Risks with calendar driven approach– chaotic development methods– lack of ‘business sustainability’ (e.g.
scaleability, extensibility etc.)
– long-term stress and demotivation
![Page 16: Bob Hughes University of Brighton](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042607/5599dee71a28abf7248b45c2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

DSDM and Booch contd.
■ RAD/DSDM also seems to be requirements driven - ‘rigid focus on the system’s outwardly observable behaviour’
■ Risks– lack of motivation to deal with sustainabilty– architecture: large number of independent
functional components

Booch’s five habits of good OO projects
■ ruthless focus on providing essential minimum requirements
■ focus on results■ effective use of OO modelling■ strong architectural vision■ well-managed iterative/incremental
development life cycle

Effect of alternative paradigmsRAD/DSDM - iterations - how do we control them?Still need management milestones
Hide it withinprocess
Or make each iterationa project

Note also
■ Effect on metrics - different units of software
■ Reuse - being decoupled from OO

The dispersed project - Situational factors e.g.■ common/different organizations■ central/dispersed authority■ criticality■ motivation■ common culture■ ease of communication■ language■ shared resources incl. data
