This knowledge area involves the
project scope, that is, the work that is
included within the project.

11. Project Time
Management
This is usually the most time
consuming of the knowledge areas.
During planning, the project manager
must divide the project into tasks and
create both a schedule (start and finish
dates for each task) and budget for
each task.
Plan Schedule Management
Define Activities
Sequence Activities
Estimate Activity Resources
Estimate Activity Durations
Develop Schedule
Control Schedule
12. Project Time Management
DPR and SKANSKA were fired by Apple and Apple hired new Company.
Delay in construction and interior work, because of this AHC faced
problem in starting their work.
Time increased due to changing of all glass door handles.
Resources-Top Rail-Bottom Rail-Glass Fitting(2 days)-Site clearance.
It takes 1-2 days to fit the glass.
They review the progress every weekly.
To manage scheduling problem, Employees are still working for 12 hours
since last 8 months.
13. Project Cost
Management
The project budget is usually one of
the most sensitive parts of a project.
Plan Cost Management
Estimate Costs
Determine Budget
Control Costs
14. Project Cost
Management
The budget for the glass:- 6 million.
Around 17% of budget is for equipment.
Major expanse is for gantry Crane(50-
50).
They also make a cost-benefit graph.
Over budgeting due to error in
estimation.
Cost increased because 45 glasses
were damage and because of increased
rate of rental machinery due to error in
scheduling.
15. Project Quality
Management
Quality is one of the triple constraints
of Time, Cost, and Quality. As such,
when you need better quality you need
to put in more time or cost.
Plan Quality Management
Perform Quality Assurance
Control Quality
16. Quality work checking by following authorities
AHC glass inc.
Seele Company.
Holder Company.
Apple (Randomly).
The typical glass have 1/8 inch tolerance but apple
demanded THE 1/32 inch tolerance.
The gap :- 5 mm (< 1mm allowable).
Glass work- Noise(ITU-R 468 noise weighting).
Even worker wear gloves to touch the material
which we can touch without gloves.

17. Project Human
Resource
Management
The Project team is usually one of the
most important factors in the success
of a project.
If you have a good team, you will have
a successful project. This knowledge
area is concerned with acquiring the
right team, ensuring their satisfaction,
and tracking their performance.

Warehouse 2:- 3 time larger than AHC one.
Equipment:-
Lowboy Trailer.
Gantry Truck.
Gang Box.
Vacuum Glass Lifter.
Laser Machine for alignment.
20. Project
Communication
Management
Communication with stakeholders is
often the key factor that allows
stakeholders to be satisfied even when
unexpected changes happen.
It is essential to develop
communication plan to keep all
stakeholders “in the loop” throughout
the project and communicate early and
often when unexpected issues occur.
Plan Communications Management
Manage Communications
Control Communications
21. Project Communication Management
Email through.
Report within 5 min of the completion of work.
Quality Check at the same day of completion (by 3 members).
Weekly and Monthly Meetings.
Walkie Talkie communication while construction.
Develop software(Park-2.0) to cumulate the work process.
Daily schedules-Whatsapp-Email-Text.
22. Project Risk
Management
Managing project risk is one of the
most underrated aspects of project
management. Major risk are very
seldom identified up front and analyzed
within the project management plan,
but when they are project stakeholders
tend to forgive the unexpected issues
much quicker.
Plan Risk Management
Identify Risks
Perform Qualitative Risk Analysis
Perform Quantitative Risk Analysis
Plan Risk Responses
Control Risks
23. Project Risk Management
Handling of Vacuum Glass Lifter
(Weight-limited space).
Safety risk for material and man
power(45- glass damaged).
It’s challenging when you’re doing
first-of’s.
They certainly have a lot more
schedule and cost risk associated
with them.
24. Project
Procurement
Management
Almost all projects have some form
of outside procurement. Hiring
subcontractors can get the job done
quicker or with better expertise but
sacrifices the ability to control the
quality, schedule, or other factors.
Plan Procurement Management
Conduct Procurements
Control Procurements
Close Procurements
25. Procurement for machinery from another company
Procurement for glass which they are getting from Germany
Procurement for safety
26. Project
Stakeholder
Management
There is nothing more important than
the project’s stakeholders.
You could, in theory, declare a project
a success if the stakeholders are
satisfied but the project was a disaster
if the stake holders are not satisfied.
The stakeholders should be actively
managed and addressed within the
project management plan.
Identify Stakeholders
Plan Stakeholder Management
Manage Stakeholder Engagement
Control Stakeholder Engagement
