1 Project Management Terry Ring Chemical Engineering University of Utah

2 Fundamental Rules of Project Engineering 1. While there is never enough time to do it right. When is there ever enough time to do it again? 2. No surprises. 3. At some point you have to build the plant.

3 Why Are ChE s Paid So Well To Work in So Many Different Industries? They can start from a vaguely defined problem statement such as a customer need or a set of experimental results From the problem statement they develop an understanding of the important underlying physical science relevant to the problem Using this understanding they can develop a plan of action and set of detailed specifications, which if followed will lead to a predicted financial outcome All the other ChE classes you took The design course addresses these 2012 G.P.

11 Project Life Cycle

12 Project Estimates, Plans, Schedules Each Engineering Discipline normally submits an estimate of hours needed to complete the project, along with a resource loaded schedule showing milestone dates for completion of deliverables, or specific % complete targets relevant to each project phase. These are built around the deliverables and known activities for each engineering discipline.

15 For Other Types of Projects See Text Chapt. 1 Techno-Economic Analysis (aka Feasibility Study).see Table 1.1 for Deliverables-Engineering Report Sections. Technical Proposal.see Table 1.2 for typical parts of a proposal that must be generated. Note: A Basic Engineering Design Report (BEDR) Table 1.3 puts together all the typical Stage Gated Project Deliverables at different Phases of each Project.

16 The Project Plan Is developed & implemented by the project manager Sets deadlines for completion of activities & intermediate deliverables Allows scheduling of subordinate or dependent tasks Allows estimation of the required manpower resources at each stage of the project Determines the procurement schedule & gives an estimate of when cash outlays are expected 2012 G.P.

24 How do you develop a Project Plan? 1. Develop Project Scope, and Design Basis (Rough Draft-Outline Based on what you have been told) 2. Develop Project Man Hour Estimate 3. Develop Project Schedule 4. Resource Load the Schedule based on Man Hour Estimate 5. Iterate with Resource and Schedule Constraints to meet project requirements. 6. Publish Documents (Scope, Estimate, Schedule) for Review & Approval

25 How do you develop a Project Plan? Start by Scoping your project: In Scope means you have deliverables for your project. Out of Scope means no deliverables, or any other considerations, calculations, etc. Write up a Scope of Study document, listing project intent and deliverables. Develop and initial Design (or Study) Basis Document, to identify your basis (and things you need to pin down in your project later as TBD).

26 Project Plan Development, cont. Next - Estimate the man-hours needed for each deliverable. Note that each deliverable may have several separate activities/tasks you need to estimate. Add in required hours for reviews, meetings, travel, etc. Include your own safety/risk review.

27 Project Plan Development, cont. Develop the Schedule. Organize your separate activities/tasks in order by which you can complete them (Identify predecessors). Start from Deadline and work backwards or.. Start with Kick-off date and work forwards. Identify Milestone dates. These can include: Completion dates (or % Complete dates). When Deliverables are to be issued for review & comment. Review Meetings. Key Decision Points.

28 Project Plan Development, cont. Document resources available to accomplish required man-hours Iterate? Demonstrate Plan via GANT chart, Flowchart, etc.

33 Impact of Cost & Schedule + Need for ISD on Process Engineering You must PLAN your work. You must Estimate your work. You must Schedule your work. You must Track your progress on your work. You must report your progress and update your Estimate & Schedule as Needed.

34 Fundamental Rules of Project Engineering (For Process Engineers) 1. While there is never enough time to do it right, there is always enough time to do it again. You have to Scope, Estimate, and Plan (Schedule, and Resource Load) your project. 2. No surprises. You need to update your Estimate & Plan Inform Project Manager of any surprises Minimize the damage of any surprises 3. At some point you have to build the plant. You need to produce your Deliverables on Schedule.
