Description

This assignment is based on the following requirement –
Write a report on the process approach to project management. For this assignment, you are required to research a number of case studies/articles. Based on these case studies/articles, you must:
a) Identify and discuss the needs and expectations of stakeholders, and then, critically evaluate the process/approach selected for the management of this project
b) Discuss a project in which scheduling is not important, and evaluate the use of work breakdown structure(WBS), Gantt chart, critical path method/analysis (CPM/CPA), and the basic PERT approach to scheduling for particular projects - use case studies to support your response
c) Critically evaluate how the success of the project chosen in part (a) was measured, (assuming that there is more than one measure); discuss how it may have been reconciled
d) As a summary, reflect on what you researched for this assignment and any implications for your current or future practice as a project manager. Evaluate how your perception about project management may have altered because of this assignment. Outline possible changes you intend to make to your practice as a project manager.
