6 Consistency Rules Rename project document update and organizational process asset updates to project documents updates and organizational process assets updates. For consistency across the PMBOK Guide, document titles are not to be capitalized in the text. OPM360 Services Based on OPM3 Standard and OPM3 Product suite 6

7 Sequencing Rules: For inputs and outputs: plans, subsidiary plans, and baselines are listed first. For inputs work performance data/information/reports, these are listed immediately before the enterprise environmental factors. Enterprise environmental factors and organizational process assets are listed last in that order. Tools and techniques have meetings listed last. When updates are an output they are listed in the following sequence: Project management plan/subsidiary plan updates, Project documents updates, Enterprise environmental factors updates, and Organizational process assets updates. 7

8 Project Management Plan and Its Subsidiary Plans Plan Scope Management Plan Schedule Management Plan Cost Management and Plan Stakeholder Management 8

9 Management Work Execution Data and Information Flow Work Performance Data. Work Performance Information Work Performance Reports. 9

10 Refined Data Model 10

11 Changes :Section 1 Introduction expand the discussion on project management offices Project Management and Operations Management was expanded to more broadly address the relationship among project management, operations management, and organizational strategy importance of interpersonal skills of a project manager Section 1.8 on Enterprise Environmental Factors was moved to Section 2. 11

12 Changes: Section 2 Project Life Cycle and Organization The section on stakeholders was expanded to better address project stakeholders and their impact on project governance A new section was added to address the characteristics and structure of the project team The section on project life cycle was moved to the end of the section and expanded to further explain life cycles and phases. 12

13 Changes :Section 3 This new section bridges the content between Sections 1 and 2 and the Knowledge Area sections This section introduces the project management processes and Process Groups as in the previous editions of the PMBOK Guide 13

14 Split Section 10 on Project Communications Management into Two Separate Sections Focuses on not only managing the expectations of the various stakeholder groups but actively working to ensure an appropriate level of engagement of project stakeholders in the decision making and activities of the project. Aligns with the growing body of research showing stakeholder engagement as one of the keys to overall project success. Improves the alignment between the PMBOK Guide and The Standard for Program Management. Aligns better with the focus on stakeholder management being put forward with the new ISO standard. Allows better emphasis on Project Communications Management by focusing on the main purpose of communication activities to collect, store, organize, and distribute project information. Enables the realignment of project communications processes, thus addressing the confusion and overlap surrounding project performance analysis and reporting. 14

15 Project Stakeholder Management. Identify Stakeholders, Develop Stakeholder Management Plan(NEW) Manage Stakeholder Engagement, and Control Stakeholder Engagement(NEW) 15

16 Process Changes 4.3 Direct and Manage Project Execution changed to Direct and Manage Project Work 5.1 Plan Scope Management added 5.5 Verify Scope changed to Validate Scope 6.1 Plan Schedule Management added 7.1 Plan Cost Management added 8.1 Plan Quality changed to Plan Quality Management 8.3 Perform Quality Control changed to Control Quality 9.1 Develop Human Resource Plan changed to Plan Human Resource Management 10.2 Plan Communications changed to Section 10.1 Plan Communications Management 16

17 Process Changes 10.3 Distribute Information changed to Section 10.2 Manage Communications 10.5 Report Performance changed to Section 10.3 Control Communications 11.6 Monitor and Control Risks changed to Control Risks 12.1 Plan Procurements changed to Plan Procurement Management 12.3 Administer Procurements changed to Control Procurements 10.1 Identify Stakeholders moved to Section 13.1 Identify Stakeholders 13.2 Plan Stakeholder Management added 10.4 Manage Stakeholder Expectations changed to Section 13.3 Manage Stakeholders Engagement 13.4 Control Stakeholders Engagement added 17

18 Project Integration Management Changes OPM360 Services Based on OPM3 Standard and OPM3 Product suite 18

19 Develop Project Charter In addition to the expert judgment, the 5th edition proposes facilitation techniques to build the project charter. These techniques have been introduced by the 5th edition. Typical facilitation techniques are brainstorming, Delphi technique, problem solving, meetings, facilitation, etc. 19

20 Perform Integrated Change Control The change register is also more formal, with the name of a change log. Change Control Tools are introduced by the 5th edition in order to facilitate configuration and change management 20

21 Close Project or Phase The 5th edition doesn t confirm the explicit use of the closure report and released resources. 21

22 Project Scope Management Changes 22

23 Plan Scope Management This new process has major outputs: The scope management plan that details how the scope will be managed and what templates will be used. The requirement management plan is also very interesting since it details how the requirements will be managed from the start until the end and how the configuration management activities will be handled. 23

24 Collect Requirements The 5th edition has removed the inconsistent output of the Collect Requirements process which is the requirements management plan. 24

25 Create WBS Whereas ISO shows the WBS and its dictionary as the sole outputs of the process, the new edition of the ANSI standard keeps the term of scope baseline. This is consistent with other knowledge areas: For instance, regarding time, the planning processes issue a schedule baseline, not one specific instance of such a baseline like a Gantt, a Pert, etc. The 4th edition had both outputs: A scope baseline, the WBS and its dictionary which was somehow redundant. 25

26 Validate Scope The acceptance of the deliverable is not made just upon the scope baseline but also on work performance data that includes the degree of compliance with requirements, the number of nonconformities and the severity of the nonconformities.this involves the validation to be made using group decision-making techniques OPM360 Services Based on OPM3 Standard and OPM3 Product suite 26

27 Project Time Management Changes 27

28 Plan Schedule Management This new process details how time-related activities will be managed through the planning, the execution, the control and the closure of the project or phase. OPM360 Services Based on OPM3 Standard and OPM3 Product suite 28

29 Estimate Activity Durations The new edition of the ANSI standard adds the risk register as an input to estimating activity durations. This is interesting since there is a balance to find between 1) identifying and managing risks as such and removing uncertainty from the estimates and 2) keeping minor uncertainties in the responsibility of the team member, and therefore in the duration estimate, because the amount at stake is far minor than the cost of managing the risk. 29

30 Project Cost Management Changes 30

31 Plan Cost Management Like other management plan, this one has been added to cover the cost area. In the cost management plan are defined the control thresholds and the rules to be applied when using performance measures like EVM does. 31

32 Project Quality Management Changes 32

33 Plan Quality Management The new edition introduces new tools ( Seven basics quality tools : cause & effect diagrams, flowcharts, check sheets, Pareto diagrams, histograms, control charts and scatter diagrams) and removed flowcharting and proprietary quality management methodologies. 33

34 Perform Quality Assurance Quality Management and Control Tools are more detailed than in the previous edition. OPM360 Services Based on OPM3 Standard and OPM3 Product suite 34

35 Project Human Resource Management Changes 35

36 Plan HR Management Develop HR Plan change to Plan HR management with no major addition 36

37 Acquire Project Team a new technique to acquire the project team: Multi-criteria decision analysis uses more objective decision criteria like the cost, the availability, the experience, the knowledge, etc. 37

38 Project Communications Management Changes 38

39 Manage Communications The new release of the ANSI standard also merges the two 4th edition processes. Tools and techniques presented by PMI include performance reporting that was initially in the Report Performance process. This revisited process goes beyond the distribution of relevant information and seeks to ensure that the information being communicated to project stakeholders has been received and understood. It also provides opportunities for stakeholders to make further information requests. 39

40 Control Communications The purpose of this new process is to identify and resolve communications issues, and to ensure communication needs are satisfied. The outputs are accurate and timely information (resolved communications issues) and change requests, mainly on the communication plan. 40

41 Project Risk Management Changes 41

42 Plan Risk Management The 5th edition has improved the list of tools and techniques for planning risk management. A non-exhaustive list of techniques is presented as well as the most important stakeholders who can provide their expert judgment. The list of inputs has been revisited also to improve consistency. OPM360 Services Based on OPM3 Standard and OPM3 Product suite 42

43 Plan Risks Responses The 5th edition removed an output of this process. Risk-related Contract Decisions is not anymore an outcome of this process. Such information is already carried through the updates on the procurement management plan which is an element of the Project Management Plan. 43

44 Project Procurement Management Changes 44

45 Plan Procurement Management The main change introduces by the 5th edition is the addition of Market Research and Meetings as tools and techniques, and the removal of Contract Types. Contract types are now considered as inputs to this process, included in the Organizational Process Assets. 45

46 Conduct Procurements The PMBOK Guide 5th edition changed few tools and techniques: Internet Search has been removed (it may be included into the general Advertising technique) and Analytical Techniques have been introduced. 46

47 Project Stakeholder Management Changes 47

48 Control Stakeholder Management This new process ensures comprehensive identification and listing of new stakeholders, reassessment of current stakeholders and removal of stakeholders no longer involved in the project. It monitors the changes on the stakeholder interrelations and controls their engagement, in order to adapt the stakeholder management strategy if needed 48

49 Data Flow Diagrams The data flow diagrams for all project management processes were cleaned up and updated to remove inconsistencies and ensure each diagram accurately reflects the inputs and outputs associated with a given process. 49
