Addressing Project Failure

AdaptaProject — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 23:47:35 +0000

This shows ways in which project failure can be addressed at the highest level. We need to know the what’s, why’s and how’s etc with any undertaking…
The first few lines from a poem by Kipling sums this up nicely – ‘I keep six honest serving men, they taught me all I knew, their names are What & Why & When and Where & How & Who’. The spirit of this poem is wrapped up in the Project Initiation Documentation, known as the PID, which will become the main source of management information, and the baseline for the project. The PID essentially becomes a contract between the Project Manager and the Project Board and should hold sufficient detail to encourage the Project Board to take ownership for the project. After all, the Project Board are the ‘owners’ of the project.

All about PMI PMP Certification

AdaptaProject — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 23:47:19 +0000

PMP stands for project management professional. Its the name of the certificate awarded to any one who scores more than the required passing mark in the PMP Exam. So if you successfully pass the PMP Exam, you become a Project Management Professional ie PMP. As evident by the name itself, this certificate is of interest to any one interested in Project Management as a career.
Let me tell you, PMP is most recognized Individual certification in the area of Project Management. Its valued Worldwide. For many of the Project Management Jobs, its even a mandatory qualification.
PMP is not for Project Managers from a specific domain. A Project Manager working in any Industry, be it Manufacturing or Retail or Defense or Information Technology can write the PMP Exam and upon successful completion can become a PMP.
Now lets look at What is PMI?
PMI is a not for profit Organization, who conducts PMP Examination. PMI stands for Project Management Institute. PMI is based in USA and it has local chapter across the globe. So, if you are based in Singapore, you can look for PMI chapter in Singapore. Such local chapters conduct regular knowledge sharing and networking session for people interested in Project Management.

A PMP certificate is valid for only three years. Post completion of this three year period. It can be renewed for another three years.
PMI measures Project Management Experience in units of PDU. PDU means Professional Development Unit.
So, if you attend a project management Class of 1 hour by an expert, its equivalent to say 1 PDU. If you write a White Paper on Project Management related topic, it may be equivalent to 5 PDU. PMI has detailed guideline on what kind of project management activity amounts to how many PDUs. You can check their website for more details.
Every three years, one must have acquire 60 PDUs to retain their PMP certificate. So first time, when you write the exam, you become PMP for 3 years.
