Project Vs Operation
PROJECT
 Take place outside the process
world
 Unique and separate from
normal organization work
OPERATION
 Ongoing, day-to-day activities
 Use existing systems, properties,
and capabilities
A complex, non-routine, one-time effort limited by time, budget, resources, and
performance specifications designed to meet customer needs.
Routine, Repetitive Work: Examples
1. Taking class notes
2. Responding to a supply-chain request
3. Routine manufacture of an Apple iPod
Projects: Examples
1. Writing a term paper
2. Developing a supply-chain
information system
3. Designing an iPod that is
approximately 2 X 4 inches,
interfaces with PC, and stores 10,000
songs 3

Is It a Project or Operation?
Consider the following scenario:
You work for a wireless phone provider, and the VP of marketing
approaches you with a fabulous idea – “fabulous” because he’s the
big boss and because he thought it up. He wants to set up Stalls in
local grocery and big–box stores as mini–offices. These offices will
offer customers the ability to sign up for new wireless phone
services, make their wireless phone bill payments, and purchase
equipment and accessories. He believes that the exposure in grocery
stores will increase awareness of the company’s offerings. After all,
everyone has to eat, right? He told you that the board of directors has
already cleared the project, and he will dedicate as many resources to
this as he can. He wants the new Stalls in place in 12 stores by the
end of this year. The best news is he has assigned you to head up this
project.

Program Vs Portfolio
A program is basically a group of
related projects managed in a
coordinated way to obtain benefits
and control not available from
managing them individually
 A collection of projects or programs
and other work that are grouped
togather to facilitate effective
managmement of that work to meet
strategic business objecives.
 The projects or program of the
portfolio may not necessarily be
interdependent or directly related.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
A method and a set of techniques based on the accepted principles
of management used for planning, estimating and controlling work
activities to reach a desired end result on time , within budget and
according to specification. (Robert K. Wysocki / Robert Beck Jr. / David B. Crane, Effective
Project Management, 2. ed., John Wiley & Sons, 2002, p. 79)

A STORY OF A PROJECT
MANAGER
7

START …
 SMEDA has just developed a Project Management Office (PMO) at
its Islamabad HQs.
 You are appointed as Project Manager at this PMO, working
directly under CEO SMEDA
 Your responsibility is to plan every SMEDA Project in term of time,
schedule, resources and Budget.
 Also to develop a tool to monitor the project during implementation
phase and provide reports about project progress whenever required
by CEO.
8

FIRST DAY IN OFFICE…
 Its first day in your office and your CEO Handover a file to you to work on it.
 You open and study the file. It is about a project feasibility in Panjgur
Balochistan.
 According to this file contents, SMEDA carried out project feasibility on Dates
Processing Centre (DPC) at Panjgur Balochistan in July 2015.
 The report was then submitted to the ministry of industries and production for
further action.
 Approval is now given and funds are allocated for the project in March 2016.
 The CEO in his comments asked you as PMO Manager to Plan, Schedule and
Monitor the project from day onward.
9

THE PROJECT DETAILS
The Project details are as Under:
Project Name: Dates Processing Centre
Location: Panjgur, Balochistan
Start Date: July 27, 2016
Must Finish By: May 20, 2017
Budget: Rs( millions). 80.300
10

OBS & EPS
 SMEDA is doing a lot of Projects in different fields like Agriculture, Gems, and
Fisheries etc all over the country.
 SMEDA have specific budget for every field.
 Now where to place this new project among these fields so that it become easier for
future assessment.
 Also make whom responsible for it in the top hierarchy so that CEO can inquire
progress from him.
 The PMO is totally new and you are doing the entire thing for the first time.
 Go to SMEDA Organ-gram. In other words, Organizational Breakdown Structure
(OBS)
 Also Develop the chart of the fields in which SMEDA is authorized or mandated to
work. It is called Enterprises Project structure (EPS)

PROJECT PLANNING: How to start?
 Divide the work (Project) into sections which is called Works Break Down
(WBS) in Project management terminology.
“A deliverable- oriented grouping of project elements that organizes and defines
the total work scope of the project. Each descending level represents an
increasingly detailed definition of the project” (PMBoK-4th Edition)

PROJECT PLANNING:
What Next …
 Divide the Project WBS further into deliverable called
activities. This process is called decomposition.
 An activity is simply a portion of work
 An element of work with expected duration, cost and
resources.
 Make a table of activities with duration and relationship
sequencing ( dependency)
14

Dependencies Orientation
 Predecessor: An activity that control the start or finish of another activity
 Successor : An activity whose start or finish depends on another activity.

Project Activities
 Make a table for it along with duration and predecessor
16

Project Resources
 To carry out these activities how many and what type of people (resources) are
available or required by the project
 Develop a table for it.

 An activity that spans over a segment of a project
 Duration of hammock activities is determined after
the network plan is drawn.
 The major use of a hammock activity is to identify
the use of fixed resources or costs over a segment
of the project.

• For example: if an activity has a resource assigned 40 Hours, and the resource has
actually completed 30 Hours, the activity is 75% complete
Activity % Complete is always linked to the % Complete displayed on the Gantt Chart bars 27

Activity Duration Types
P6 provides 4 types of
Activity Durations
Fixed Duration Types Fixed Resource Types
1. Fixed Duration & Units/Time 3. Fixed Units
2. Fixed Duration & Units 4. Fixed Units/time
 The Duration type only matters when the activity is assigned to resources.
 The following equation must hold true regardless of which variable is updated.
Resource Units = Units / Time x Duration
If the activity is not started, the names of the values are :
o Budgeted Units = Original Duration x Budgeted Units/Time
If the activity has started, the names of the values are :
o Remaining Units = Remaining Duration x Remaining Units/Time
The Duration Type enables you to control which variables of this equation are calculated
when you change a value. 28

Activity Duration Types…
1. Fixed Duration & Units /Time
Resource Units = Resource Units/Time x Duration
Fixed Resource Types (Resources drive Duration)
2. Fixed Duration & Units
3. Fixed Units /Time
4.Fixed Units
 Task DependentActivities.
 Duration Drives Resources.
 Duration dominates Resources
(Units/Time or Units).
 Resource DependentActivities.
 Resources Drive Duration.
 Resources (Units / Time or
Units) dominates Duration.

PROJECT SCHEDULING:
SCHEDULING
 The process of calculating start and finish dates of activities according to its
relationship is called scheduling
 RELATIONSHIPS PRESENTATION:
o Gantt Chart: Graph or bar chart with a bar for each project activity that
shows passage of time; Provides visual display of project schedule
o Network diagram is the preferred technique for showing activity
sequencing. It is a schematic display of the logical relationship among
project activities

AON NETWORK:
40

 is a procedure for using network analysis to identify those tasks
which are on the critical path;
 where any delay in the completion of these tasks will lengthen the
project timescale, unless action is taken.
 Critical path is based on two factors:
Longest path
Path with zero float
 How long will the entire project take to complete?
 Which activities determine total project time?
 Which activity times should be shortened, if possible, or in other
words, how many resources should be allocated to each activity?
41

 Forward Pass – Earliest Times; remember three things when computing early activity times:
1. Add activity time along each path in the network (ES + Dur. = EF)
2. Carry the early finish (EF) to the next activity where it becomes its early start (ES),
unless
3. Next succeeding activity is a merge activity; select the largest early finish number (EF)
of all its predecessor activities
 Backward Pass – Latest Times; similar to Forward Pass; remember three things:
1. Subtract activity times along each path starting with the project end activity (LF – Dur. =
LS)
2. Carry the LS to the next preceding activity to establish its LF, unless
3. Next preceding activity is a burst activity; select the smallest LS of all its immediate
successor activities to establish its LF
 Slack or Float – SL
 Forward & Backward Passes Computed
 Possible to determine which activities can be delayed by computing “Slack” or “Float”
LS – ES = SL (or) LF – EF = SL
 Total Slack: tells us the amount of time an activity can be delayed; not delay project

Constraints
 List of constraints available in Primavera (Activity detail pane  Status tab)
o <None>: An activity by default is scheduled to occur As Soon As Possible and
does not have a Constraint.
o Start On (i.e. Must Start On): Sets a date on which the activity will start.
Therefore, the activity has no float. The early start and the late start dates are set
to be the same as the Constraint Date.
o Start On or Before: Also known as Start No Later Than or Late Start, this
constraint sets the late date after which the activity will not start.
o Start On or After: Also known as Start No Earlier Than or Early Start, this
constraint sets the early date before which the activity will not start.
o As Late As Possible (Zero Free Float): An activity will be scheduled to occur
as late as possible. It consumes Free Float only and does not have any particular
Constraint Date. The Early and Late dates have the same date.
o Mandatory Start: This constraint prevents float being calculated through this
activity and effectively breaks a schedule into two parts. This is also sometimes
called a Hard Constraint

Scheduling Options and Setting A Baseline
 MAIN STEPS FOR MONITORING PROGRESS:
o Saving a Baseline schedule, also known as a Target. This schedule
holds the dates against which progress is compared.
“The current project may be copied and used as a baseline or an existing
project may be assigned as a baseline”
o Recording or marking-up progress as of a specific date, titled the Data
Date. Also known as the Status Date, Update Date, Current Date,
Report Date, and As-Of-Date.
o Updating or Progressing the schedule.
o Scheduling the project and at the same time moving the Data Date to
the new Data Date and recalculating all the activities dates.
o Comparing and Reporting actual progress against planned progress and
revising the plan and schedule, if required.
49

Scheduling Options and Setting A Baseline
 Tools  Schedule…  Options (Compute Total Float as)
 Saving and Deleting and Setting a Baseline:
o Project  Maintain Baselines…
 Setting a Baseline Project:
o Project  Assign Baselines…
 Updating a Baseline:
o Project  Maintain Baselines… Update tab
The Planned Dates from a Baseline schedule will be displayed as the Baseline Bars when the
Admin, Admin Preferences…, Earned Value tab is set to Budget values with planned dates.
Thus the Baseline Bars from an in progress schedule will be incorrect.

EARNED VALUE ANALYSIS
“COST / SCHEDULE SYSTEM”
55

 “Earned Value Analysis” is:
 an industry standard way to:
 measure a project’s progress,
 forecast its completion date and final cost, and
 provide schedule and budget variances along
the way.
 By integrating three measurements, it provides
consistent, numerical indicators with which you can
evaluate and compare projects.
56

WHAT’S MORE IMPORTANT?
 Knowing where you are
on schedule?
on budget?
on work accomplished?
57

 PV: “Planned Value”
 It answers the question “how much did we plan to spend as of this date?” A
variant of this question is “how much work should have been completed by
this date?”
 AC: “Actual Cost”
 It answers the question “how much have we actually spent?”. This is usually
determined from the organization’s accounting system, or can often be
approximated by multiplying the number of people by the number of hours or
days or weeks worked.
 EV: “EARNED VALUE”
 It answers the question “how much work has actually been completed?”

EXAMPLE–1:
Earned Value Analysis
 Suppose you are making cookies for a large party to be held tomorrow.
 Suppose the following are your plans:
 Plans:
 40 cookies per batch
 5 batches per hour (200 cookies)
 Schedule: 5 hours to make a total of 1000 cookies
 Budgeted cost per cookie is $0.05
 Total budget is $50.00 for cookie ingredients, or $10 per hour
 We'll use earned value to examine our progress.
 PROGRESS REPORT AT END OF HOUR 1:
 150 edible cookies have been made (some were burnt and had to be thrown
away)
 Total actual cost of ingredients used so far is $9.00 (AC)
60

Example (Cont…):
Earned Value Analysis
ANALYSIS:
 PV= $10.00
 EV= $7.50(Earned Value)[150 cookiesx0.05 per cookie]
 AC = $9.00 [from above]
Therefore:
 SV = EV – PV = -$2.50 (you are behind schedule)
 SPI = EV / PV = 0.75 (you are running at 75% of the planned schedule)
 CV = EV – AC = $7.50 - $9.00 = -$1.50 (you are $1.50 over budget)
 CPI = EV / AC = 0.833 (you are running over budget by about 17%)
61

EVM cost forecasting–final cost
Estimate At Completion (EAC): “The expected TOTAL cost required to
finish complete work”
o EAC = AC + ETC (or)
o EAC = BAC / CPI Where: BAC = Sum of all PV (Planned Value)
Estimate to complete (ETC): “The expected cost required to finish all the
REMAINING work”
o ETC = (BAC – EV) / CPI (or)
o ETC = EAC – AC
Time to complete (TC) = (BAC – EV) / SPI
Variance At Completion (VAC): “Estimated cost overrun at the end of
project”
o VAC = BAC – EAC
62

EXAMPLE–2: Earned Value Analysis
A project has a budget of £10M and schedule for 10 months. It is assumed that the
total budget will be spent equally each month until the 10th month is reached. After
2 months the project manager finds that only 5% of the work is finished and a total
of £1M spent.
 Find the following:
o Variances: CV, SV
o Indices: CPI, SPI
o Forecasting: EAC, ETC, Time to completion
PV = £2M
EV = £10M * 0.05 = £0.5M
AC = £1M
 CV = EV-AC = 0.5-1 = -0.5M
 SV = EV-PV = 0.5-2 = -1.5 months
 CPI = EV/AC = 0.5/1 = 0.5
 SPI = EV/PV = 0.5/2 = 0.25
 EAC = BAC/CPI = 10/0.5 = £20M
 ETC = (BAC-EV) / CPI = (10-0.5)/0.5 = £19M
 Time to compete = (BAC – EV)/SPI
= (10-0.5)/0.25 = 38 Months
 This project will take TOTAL £20M (19+1) and
40 (38+2) Months to complete.

Exercise: EVA
You have a project that is scheduled to be completed in 10 days at a
budgeted cost of $100,000. At the end of day 6 you do an analysis and
you determine the job is 70% complete and you have spent $65,000.
Questions:
1. What is the project’s earned value?
2. What is the project’s budget at completion?
3. Is the project ahead, behind schedule or on time?
4. Is the project expected to complete on budget, under or over
budget?
5. What is the project’s SPI?
6. What is the project’s CPI?
1. At Day 6th, EV = $70,000
2. BAC = $100,000
3. Ahead of schedule.
4. Under budget.
5. At Day 6th, SPI = 1.17
6. At Day 6th, CPI = 1.08 64

Steps for EV Analysis Using P6
STEP – 1: Add Activities & Relationships, Set % Complete to Physical
65

Steps for EV Analysis Using P6…
STEP – 2: Add & Assign Resources
66

STEP – 3: Maintain Baseline and Assign to Project
STEP – 4: Customize Columns for analysis
STEP – 5: Update Physical % Complete
67

STEP – 6: Update Resource Actual Units (Or Expenses)
STEP – 7: Schedule Project, Advance Data Date
68

We can now analyze our “Earned Value”
Conclusions Based on Earned Value Analysis
 Schedule Performance
o The baseline indicates that 50% of the work should be complete. With only 30%
Performance % Complete (Actual Labor Units). This shows the project is behind
schedule.
 Cost Performance
o The baseline indicates that $500 worth of work should be complete (Planned Value Cost)
As of the Data Date, (Actual cost) is $600 to achieve $300 worth of work (Earned Value
Cost). This shows the project is over budget 69

Using CPI & SPI to analyze project efficiency
 Cost Performance Index relates the amount of Physical Work completed vs. the $
spent to accomplish the work.
o CPI = (EV) / (AC)
 Schedule Performance Index relates to the Physical Work completed vs. the amount
of work planned
o SPI = (EV) / (PV)
70

Using CPI/SPI to calculate your “Estimate to Complete”
Open WBS Window; Detail Pane
What is it going to cost to complete this project?
 ETC uses one of two formulas
o ETC = Remaining Cost of the activity
o ETC = Performance Factor *
(Budget at Completion – Earned
Value Cost)
71

Using CPI/SPI to calculate your “Estimate to Complete”
Using Remaining Costs for Activities to Calculate (ETC)
Using CPI to Calculate (ETC) – Yields an Optimistic Result
Using CPI/SPI to calculate ETC – Worst Case Scenario
ETC = [1/(CPI * SPI)] * Budget at Completion – Earned Value Cost
PF = 1/CPI *Most likely Result ETC = (1/CPI)* Budget at Completion – Earned Value Cost
PF = 1/CPI*SPI *Pessimistic Result
