Описание: Practical Project Management for Building and Construction covers the 14 knowledge areas of project management that are essential for successful projects in the construction industry. For each knowledge area, it explains the processes for scope, time, risk, cost, and resource management. Filled with work and process flow diagrams, it demonstrates how projects progress throughout the project life cycle.The book details the processes that must be included in the management process to deliver projects on time and within budget. The processes and knowledge areas described reference the ISO 10006 Standard (guidelines for quality management in projects), the international project management standards of the PMBOK® Guide, and the rapidly emerging ISO 21500 standard. Coverage includes change management, working environment, quality and communication, and procurement management. Illustrating the entire project process, this pioneering reference: Reports on regulations from the European Union and the United States that impact construction projects Identifies the knowledge areas a project manager must control Examines time-tested strategies, various types of contracts, remuneration forms, and contract close out Includes many examples and templates to help you generate essential project documents The book supplies accessible information on a range of helpful tools such as work breakdown structure and earned value. Explaining how to use a network diagram with its gaps and critical paths, the methods described in the text will help you control the WHAT, HOW, and WHEN to do things as well as WHO is responsible for doing them, which will lead to successful project management. Because a large part of the book addresses general project management concepts, the lessons learned will also be helpful to project managers outside the building and construction industry.

Описание: This is the latest edition of the best selling "bible" of project management. This 10th Edition maintains the streamlined approach of the prior editions and will move the content even closer to PMIs Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK), the 4th edition of which will be released in the Fall of 2008. Changes to this edition include dropping the last chapter on "Critical Chain Management", while adding new sections on "scope changes", "exiting a project", "collective belief" , "managing virtual teams", and many more. A new capstone "super" case on the "Iridium Project" will be added covering all aspects of project management. We will increase the use of sidebars throughout the book to further align with the PMOBOK and the PMP Exam. We will also add a new table which tells exactly how to use the book to study for the PMP Exam. As with the prior edition, the 10th edition is supplemented by a Student Workbook, an Instructor's Manual, and a book of case studies to help students learn and prepare for the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification exam.

Описание: One cannot overestimate the importance of project management.

This book introduces the specialized and highly regarded STEP Methodology using PMBOK as the platform for the topics covered.
Описание: The book is primarily intended for use as a college textbook for teaching project management at the advanced undergraduate or master's level. The text is appropriate for classes on the management of service, product, engineering projects, as well as information systems (IS). Thus, we have included some coverage of material concerning information systems and how IS projects differ from and are similar to regular business projects. The authors draw upon their personal experiences working with project managers and on the experience of friends and colleagues who have spent much of their working lives serving as project managers in the "real world." Thus, in contrast to the books that are about project management, this book teaches students how to do project management. Project Management: A Managerial Approach 5E addresses project management from a management perspective rather than a cookbook, special area treatise, or collection of loosely associated articles. It addresses the basic nature managing all types of projects - public, business, engineering, information systems, and so on - as well as specific techniques and insights required to carry out this unique way of getting things done. It deals with the problems of selecting projects, initiating them, and operating and controlling them. It discusses the demands made on the project manager and the nature of the manager's interaction with the rest of the parent organization. It covers the difficult problems associated with conducting a project using people and organizations that represent different cultures and may be separated by considerable distances. It even covers the issues arising when the decision is made to terminate a project.
