Project Management.

12. Project Management

13.  A project is a job that has to get done.
 It has an identifiable end-point.
 Typically a project refers to a set of interrelated activities,
usually involving a group of people working together on a
one-time task for a period.
 Time is the essence of a project.
What is Project Management?

14.  The life cycle of a typical project comprises four distinct
phases:-
 Planning
 Build-up
 Implementation
 Phase-out
 Each phase has its own set of objectives, activities, tools, and
skills.
What are the Phases of a Project’s Life Cycle?

15.  The Project Manager needs to recognize the objectives, prepare
for the activities, and use each set of tools and skills as needed.
 In brief, Project Management is a set of principles, methods, and
techniques to establish a sound basis for scheduling, controlling,
and modifying a project.
 National Board of Accreditation has prescribed 12
Graduate Attributes for the Engineering students, they
are 1) Engineering knowledge 2) Problem analysis 3)
Design of solutions 4) Conduct investigations of
complex problems 5) Modern tool usage 6) The
engineer & society 7) Environment & sustainability 8)
Ethics 9) Individual & team work 10) Communication 11)
Project management 12) Life-long learning
What is Project Management?

16.  A Manager, day-in and day-out handles either tasks or
projects.
 In a task, objectives are clear, the methodology is established,
resources are well allocated, outputs are defined, and the
timeline is fixed.
 On the other hand, in a project while the objectives are clear
and the timeline is fixed, the rest of the factors are rather
fluid.
Differentiation Between A Task and A Project

17.  Therefore, a project throws-up more and complex challenges to a
Manager.
 Handling these challenges, and surmounting them brings out the
best in a Manager and differentiates ‘the good and the mediocre’.
 when you recruit Procurement Project Manager will
you Hire Character; Train Skills." or 'Hire Skills, Character
can be moulded
Differentiation Between A Task and A Project

18.  It is roughly estimated that the work of a Manager involves
80% of tasks and 20% of projects.
 Whereas, in terms of timeline, a Manager spends 80% of his
time handling projects and the rest in carrying out his tasks.
 Thus, developing the required capacities in handling projects
is vital for a manager to succeed.
Differentiation Between A Task and A Project

19.  The following statistics highlight the success rate of project
execution in the Indian context:-
 India has targeted to invest US Dollar 500 billion+ in infrastructure
by the end of the 12th plan period.
 However, the country has consistently fallen short of meeting
such targets.
 It is estimated that the average rate of awarding projects has been
around 70% of the planned rate.
 Further, as per the data it is estimated that a majority of projects,
close to 60%, suffer from time and cost overruns.
Success Rate of Projects In India

20.  Inefficiencies in implementing infrastructure projects in India
occur at all stages. This includes:-
 Awarding projects as per plan targets
 Securing financial closure
 Executing projects with in cost and time.
 Deploying Trained and Qualified Project Management
Professionals
 Regular reviews and Corrective Preventive Actions
Success Rate of Projects In India

21.  If the current trend continues, it is estimated that India could
suffer a GDP loss of US Dollar 200 billion, that is around 20%
of its GDP.
 In addition, could lose up to US Dollar 160 billion as the
industrial productivity gets impacted for lack of infrastructure.
Success Rate of Projects In India

22.  It is estimated that the losses that accrue at various
stages are as below:-
 Because of shortfall in awarding projects as per plan
could result in net US Dollar 100 billion loss to the GDP.
 Time and cost overruns in project execution could lead to
another US Dollar 80 billion loss.
 Capital constraints may account for a loss of US Dollar 20
billion.
Success Rate of Projects In India

23.  India does not compare favorably with other countries in
executing projects.
 It is estimated that each project suffers from 20 to 25 percent
time and cost over-runs.
 While in some sectors this is as high as over 50 percent.
 It is this scenario that makes Professional Project Managers
and Procurement Managers critical in the Indian situation.

24. Supply Chain
Management

25. What is SCM?
 Supply chain management (SCM) is all the
activities that take place to get a product service
into the hands of a consumer
 From the time of raw materials extraction, through
production, distribution, retailing to the minute the
customer buys the product/service, it is all
managed by SCM

30. Project Management and
SCM –The Interconnect

31. Projects and SCM
 Large projects involve significant amount of
activity and use of materials & Services
 Construction
 Infrastructure
 Ship-building
 Aerospace and Defense
 Engineering & Telecom
 Research & Development
 Several of these project are of long duration
and involve large investments

32. SCM Activities
 Long and short-term planning,
 Forecasting & review with Projects,
 inventory management
 procurement
 Logistics
 PPC management
 material handling
 customs clearing, compliance
 warehousing.

33. Costs
 In many industries, materials & Services costs
vary from 50 – 80% of total costs
 Logistics costs vary between 10-30% in
projects
 SCM costs are therefore a significant part of
project cost
 Price Estimation of A & B class items
services for complete period of the project is
major challenge

34. SCM Techniques
 Strategic sourcing
 Supplier Relationships & long term contracts
 Category and Spend Management
 3PL and 4 PL
 E-procurement & Reverse Auctions
 Green Purchasing
 JIT, Asset & Inventory Management tools.

36. Hard Skills for better
careers

37.  As Project Management is a craft, Managers can be taught and prepared with the skills,
knowledge, tools, and techniques of effectively managing and executing a project.
 Therefore, it is important for Professionals to undergo focused training in Project
Management.
 To ensure that Managers have acquired the required skills and knowledge in effectively
handling and executing projects, there is a body, namely ‘The Project Management
Institute (PMI)’.
 The PMI is a world-wide body and is head- quartered in the state of Pennsylvania in the
USA.

Professional (PMP)’.To be a PMP, one has to pass an
examination conducted by the PMI.
 Brenau University/RIMSR, is one such accredited institution
which offers comprehensive programmes in Project
management.
 Acquiring PMP certification is a hard skill for professionals
