Project Management Execution Work Data and Information Flow

PMBoK 5th edition, clearly states the three elements related to Work Performance.

• Work Performance Data
• Work Performance Information and
• Work Performance Reports

The Work Performance Data is a critical input to Controlling processes. Based on the data received, the Project Manager evaluates the respective area's performance and raises a Change Request to take either Corrective action, preventive action or defect control. 

The scope of this diagram is with respect to Work Performance Data, Work Performance Information and Work Performance Reports only. You will see not all the inputs and outputs to the processes depicted here mentioned - to confirm to the scope as given above.

Change Management Process Flow

Change is inevitable. During the project, as the Project Manager, you will receive Change Requests from Stakeholders, Customer etc. At times, as a Project Manager, you will also raise Change Requests to get the project performance back on track, to take corrective actions, to perform defect repairs etc.

In PMBoK 5th edition, you already know that there are 47 processes. The "Perform Integrated Change Control" Integration Knowledge Area Process is the one that handles the changes. It receives Change Requests from all Controlling and Manage Processes.

To understand this process better, I have plotted a diagram which clearly shows the Change Requests flowing into "Perform Integrated Change Control" process and its "Approved Change Requests" as output. The scope of this diagram is only on Change Management. You will see other inputs and outputs to and from "Perform Integrated Change Control" process not shown purposefully to meet the scope.

Tools and Techniques - Introduction

All the 47 processes in PMBoK5 use various Tools and Techniques to process the given inputs and turn them into the specified outputs. In this series, you will find the various Tools and Techniques used by these processes with some examples.

Review these Tools and Techniques independently without the processes to understand them and reinforce your concepts for the exam.

In my series on Process Flows, Please find the Process Flow chart for Integration Management Knowledge Area.

1. Develop Project Charter

1 Develop Project Charter

Knowledge Area	Integration	Process Group	Initiating
What happens before this process	Project Manager is identified and appointed.
What is the outcome of this process	The project charter provides the project manager with the authority to plan and execute the project.

The first process we come across is the Develop Project Charter. With every Project Manager's philosophy of begin with keeping end in mind let me explain.

Lets understand what happens before this process: Pre Project Phase (NOT A PMBoK TERM)

PMBoK clearly states that “that business case assessment, approval, and funding are handled externally to the project boundaries” (Page 54). That means before the Project is authorized  the performing organization recognizes a business need that might have raised based on a market demand, technological advance, legal requirement, government regulation, or environmental consideration. Typically, the business need and the cost-benefit analysis are contained in the business case to justify the project. The Business Case is created to document this information. The Project Sponsor is presented with the Business case and he or she decides that the investment needed for the project is worth based on the justification provided in the Business Case and decides to authorize a project.

Why we need the Project Charter?

Good question to begin with. If you have checked my purpose and key benefit of each process in an earlier blog, the purpose of this process is “of developing a document that formally authorizes the existence of a Project and provides the Project Manager with the authority to apply Organizational resources to Project Activities”.

You can't start a project just like that. Your project needs Organizational resources, time, money etc. So creating a project charter makes sense as you as the Project Manager have the authority to start and apply Organizational resources onto your project.

How does it look like?

To better understand this process, have a look at an empty Project Charter Template (taken from PMI Site, PMBoK 5^th Edition Companion Guide. Slightly altered as required for my presentation). I have written my observations where necessary.

PROJECT CHARTER

Project Title	your project title goes here
Project Sponsor	A sponsor is the person or group who provides resources and support for the project and is accountable for enabling success
Project Manager	Its you !		Date Prepared
Customer
Project Purpose or Justification
The business case or similar document describes the necessary information from a business standpoint to determine whether or not the project is worth the required investment. It is commonly used for decision making by managers or executives above the project level. Typically, the business need and the cost-benefit analysis are contained in the business case to justify and establish boundaries for the project, and such analysis is usually completed by a business analyst using various stakeholder inputs. You use Business Case as an INPUT to provide this justification.
Project Description
This information is derived from the Project Statement of Work. The project statement of work (SOW) is a narrative description of products, services, or results to be delivered by a project. For internal projects, the project initiator or sponsor provides the statement of work based on business needs, product, or service requirements. For external projects, the statement of work can be received from the customer as part of a bid document, (e.g., a request for proposal, request for information, or request for bid) or as part of a contract. You use Project Statement of Work as an INPUT to describe the Project.
High Level Requirements
Derived from Business Case and/or Project Statement of Work. You might also use “Facilitation Techniques” to gather these High Level Requirements. And you might also seek the advise of any group or individual with specialized knowledge or already trained in the similar role, i.e. Subject Matter Experts to assess this information. This is known as “Expert Judgement”
High level Risks
The Business Case outlines high-level risks. If the performing organization has done similar projects in the past, then you can contact your Project Management Office to obtain the risks that were identified, analyzed, managed and controlled in the earlier projects. This is called Organizational Process Assets. If there are any risks that can be identified due to factors outside the control of the performing organization such as Government Regulations, Change in Market demand etc, they can be documented here. This is called Enterprise Environment Factors.

What is created/updated when in PMBOK Processes

While preparing for the exam, another useful thing I have created is an Excel worksheet that shows for various outputs (its better to call them as Management Products as in PRICE2 and/or Project Documents) when they are created i.e. the process that creates them and updates them.

I have reproduced the list below for your information. The most important areas here to look for are:

• When Project Management Plan is getting updated
• When Project Documents are getting updated
• When important Management Products like WBS, Change Requests, Milestone list etc are created
• When Organizational Process assets and Enterprise Environmental Factors gets updates - most importantly during the Closing process
