Overview of Project
 A project is defined as a sequence of tasks that must be completed to attain a certain outcome.
 A project in project management is a temporary and unique endeavour that aims to achieve
specific objectives within a defined timeframe, budget and having achieved its objective(s).
 Examples of project include
 Developing a Researching to develop a new manufacturing process, Manufacturing products
for retail sale, Building a shopping mall, Creating irrigation facility, Developing new variety of
a crop, Developing new breed of an animal, Developing agro-processing center, Construction
of farm building, sting of a concentrated feed plant etc.
 It may be noted that each of these projects differ in composition, type, scope, size and time.
 Types of Projects By Funding Source
 Private projects: Projects that are financed by businesses or private organizations.
 Public projects: Projects which are funded by Government agencies.
 Mixed projects: Projects that are financed by a public-private partnership.

 Types of Projects By Industry


 Construction projects:
 Manufacturing projects:
 IT projects:

Project management

 Project management is a discipline that involves planning, executing, and


overseeing a project from its initiation to its completion. It is a systematic
approach to achieving specific goals and objectives within a defined scope, time,
quality, and cost constraints.
 For successful project management, one must have a clear understanding of the
project goals, scope, timelines, and budget.
Need and Importance of Project Management:
1. Strategic Alignment
2. Consistent communication
3. Effective resource allocation
4. Higher productivity
5. Better customer satisfaction
6. More flexibility
7. Higher risk tolerance
8. Quality control
9. Develops essential skills
10. Improves decision-making
11. Increases employability
12. Learning by retrospection
Characteristics and Importance of
Project Management:
 Project Objectives
 Time
 Life Cycle
 Possible Conflicts
 Flexibility
 Team Spirit
 Constraints
 Planning and Control
 Body of Knowledge
Project Life Cycle:
 The project management life
cycle is usually broken down
into four phases: initiation,
planning, execution, and
closure. These phases make up
the path that takes your project
from the beginning to the end.
Stakeholders:

 A formal definition of a stakeholder is: “individuals and


organizations who are actively involved in the project, or whose
interests may be positively or negatively affected as a result of
project execution or successful project completion” (Project
Management Institute (PMI®), 1996).

 Types of stakeholders in project management


 Internal stakeholders:
 External stakeholders:
Examples of stakeholders in a
project
 Company owners
 Project manager
 Team members
 Advisory members
 Executive members
 Managers
 Resource managers
 Senior management
 Investors
 Sponsors
 Suppliers
 Vendors
 Consultants
 Customers
 End users
Project Organisation:

 Project organization refers to the style of coordination,


communication, and management a team uses throughout a
project’s life cycle.
 Project organization encourages participation by each team
member and embraces diverse talents and skills.
 Team involvement is laid out in an organizational structure chart
that graphically shows where each person is placed in the project
structure.
 Project organizational charts are useful tools for clarifying who
does what, securing buy-in and setting expectations for the
group.
Types of project organization

1. Functional
2. Project
3. Matrix
4. Composite
Functional
• In this type of project organization, the
project team members are drawn from
different functional areas of the
organization, such as engineering,
marketing, and finance.
• Each team member reports to their
respective functional manager, and the
project manager has limited authority.
• The functional manager is responsible for
the team member's performance, and
• the project manager is responsible for
coordinating and integrating the team's
work.
• This structure is often used in
organizations with a stable and routine
project environment.
Project-Oriented/Projectized

• In this type of project organization, the project


team members are organized into a separate
project team for each project.
• Each team member reports directly to the
project manager, who has complete authority
and control over the project.
• The project manager is responsible for
managing the project budget, schedule, and
resources.
• This structure is often used in organizations
where project work is the primary business
function.
Matrix
• In this type of project organization, the
project team members are drawnfrom
different functional areas of the
organization, and each team member has
two reporting lines – to their functional
manager and to the project manager.
• The project manager has moderate
authority, and the functional manager has
partial authority.
• This structure combines the strengths of
Functional and projectized organizations,
allowing organizations to balance resources
and expertise while maintaining flexibility.
• This structure is often used in organizations
where projects are critical to the business
but not the primary business function.

Work Breakdown Structure

 (WBS) is a hierarchical decomposition of project tasks, deliverables,


and work elements that organizes and defines the total scope of the
project.
 It is a critical tool in project management, used to break down the
project into smaller, more manageable components, and
 To establish a framework for organizing and tracking project tasks.
 The WBS typically starts with the main project deliverable, and then
breaks it down into smaller, more manageable components or work
packages.
 These work packages can then be further broken down into smaller,
more specific tasks, which can be assigned to individual team
members for execution.
 The WBS should be developed in collaboration with the project team
and stakeholders to ensure that all key project elements are included
and that everyone is clear on their responsibilities.
Benefits of using a WBS in project
management include:

 Improved project planning:


 Better communication:
 Enhanced project tracking and monitoring:
 Increased stakeholder engagement:
The work breakdown for a certain marketing campaign can be as follows:
 Campaign Planning
 Objective Setting
 Target Audience Identification
 Campaign Strategy Development
 Creative Development
 Concept Development
 Creative Execution
 Asset Creation (graphics, videos, copy)
 Campaign Execution
 Media Planning and Buying
 Creative Deployment
 Campaign Tracking and Optimization
 Reporting and Analysis
 Metrics Tracking
 ROI Calculation
 Post-Campaign Analysis
SCOPE AND PRIORITIES
 Scope:
 The scope of a project defines the boundaries of what will be delivered and what won't be delivered.
 It is a statement of the project's objectives, deliverables, and the work required to achieve those objectives.
 The scope outlines what is included in the project, and also what is not included. Defining the scope of a
project is critical to ensure that all stakeholders have a clear understanding of what the project will deliver.
 A well-defined scope helps in developing realistic project plans, identifying potential risks and constraints,
and allocating resources effectively.
 Priorities:
 Priorities are the relative importance of project objectives, tasks, and deliverables. Prioritization is the
process of ranking project tasks based on their level of importance or urgency.
 Priorities are determined based on the project's goals and objectives, stakeholder needs, and available
resources. Setting priorities helps project managers to focus on the most critical and high-impact tasks,
which improves project outcomes.
 Prioritization helps in effective resource allocation, time management, and risk management. It also helps
in avoiding delays and bottlenecks, as tasks are completed in order of importance.
Setting scope and priorities helps in effective allocation of resources, developing realistic project plans,
improved communication with the stakeholders and manages risk associated with the project.
PROJECT IDENTIFICATION
 Project identification is the first step in the project management
process.
 It involves identifying potential projects that align with an
organization's goals and objectives, evaluating them, and
selecting the best project(s) to pursue.
 The goal of project identification is to determine whether a
project is worth pursuing and whether it has the potential to
provide a return on investment.
 The steps involved in project identification are as follows:
o Idea generation:
o Screening:
o Feasibility study:
o Project selection:
o Project charter:
TECHNO-ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY
 Techno-economic feasibility is an assessment of whether a particular technology or
project is both technically and economically viable.
 In other words, it involves evaluating the potential of a technology or project to
achieve its technical objectives while also generating enough financial returns to
justify its investment.
 To determine the techno-economic feasibility of a project, a range of factors are
considered, including:
 Technical feasibility: This refers to the ability of the technology or project to deliver the
desired outcomes or meet the specified performance standards.
 Economic viability: This refers to the potential financial returns that can be generated
from the technology or project, taking into account factors such as market demand,
pricing, production costs, and potential revenue streams.
 Market demand: This refers to the level of demand for the technology or project in the
target market, and its potential growth prospects.
 Competitiveness: This refers to the ability of the technology or project to compete
effectively with other existing or potential alternatives in the market.
 Environmental and social impact: This refers to the potential impact of the technology or
GOVERNMENT POLICY TO LOCATION
 The fundamental objective of government policy on location is to achieve balanced regional
development of the economy through decentralization of industries, with a view to ensuring
the following benefits:

1. Reduction of inequalities of income and wealth, in various regions

2. Provision of employment opportunities on an equitable basis.

3. Increase in the standard of living in backward areas through removal of poverty

4. Avoid over-concentration of industries in particular regions for strategic defence


considerations

5. Controlling social problems like – development of slums, over-crowding,


pollution, traffic-congestion etc.
GOVERNMENT POLICY TO LOCATION
 The Indian government has formulated several policies to promote projectmanagement and to guide the
location of projects in the country
 Some of the key policies are as follows:
 National Project Management Policy (NPMP): The NPMP aims to provide a framework for effective project
management across various sectors. The policy sets out guidelines for project management, including project
planning, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. Industrial
 Location Policy: The Industrial Location Policy aims to promote balanced regional development by
encouraging industries to set up in backward regions. The policy offers incentives such as tax holidays, capital
subsidies, and interest subsidies to industries that set up in these regions.
 Special Economic Zones (SEZs): The government has set up SEZs to promote exports and attract foreign
investment. SEZs offer various incentives such as tax holidays, duty-free imports, and relaxed labour laws to
companies that set up operations in these zones.
 National Industrial Corridor Development Programme (NICDP): The NICDP aims to promote industrial
development by creating industrial corridors across the country. These corridors will have world-class
infrastructure and offer various incentives to attract industries. Make in India: The Make in India initiative
aims to promote manufacturing in India and increase the share of manufacturing in the GDP. The initiative
offers various incentives to companies that invest in manufacturing in India.
 Environmental Regulations: The government has various environmental regulations that companies must
comply with when setting up a project. These regulations aim to protect the environment and ensure
sustainable development. These policies aim to promote industrial development while ensuring sustainable
development and balanced regional growth.
LEGAL ASPECTS IN PROJECT
MANAGEMENT
 project managers need to be aware of the legal aspects that apply to their projects. Some of the legal aspects of
project management in India are as follows:
 Contracts and agreements: Project managers need to ensure that they have proper contracts and agreements in place with
stakeholders such as clients, vendors, and contractors. These contracts should comply with the Indian Contract Act, 1872,
and should clearly define the scope of work, timelines, and responsibilities of each party, as well as provisions for dispute
resolution and breach of contract.
 Intellectual property: Project managers need to be aware of the various laws related to intellectual property in India,
including the Patents Act, 1970, the Trademarks Act, 1999, and the Copyright Act, 1957. They need to ensure that any
intellectual property created during the project is properly protected and that they have the necessary licenses and
permissions to use any intellectual property owned by others.
 Labour laws: Project managers need to comply with the various labour laws in India, including the Minimum Wages Act,
1948, the Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952, and the Payment of Bonus Act, 1965. They
need to ensure that their employees are provided with appropriate wages, benefits, and working conditions.
 Environmental regulations: Project managers need to comply with environmental regulations in India to ensure that their
projects do not have a negative impact on the environment. This may involve obtaining environmental clearances from the
Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, conducting environmental impact assessments, and implementing
measures to mitigate any environmental impact.
 Taxation laws: Project managers need to be aware of the various taxation laws in India, including the Income Tax Act,
1961, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Act, 2017, and the Customs Act, 1962.
 Data privacy laws: Project managers need to comply with data privacy laws in India, including the Information
Technology Act, 2000, and the Personal Data Protection Bill, 2019. They need to ensure that they obtain consent from

Market feasibility with Moving Average and
Exponential smoothing methods

 Moving Average Forecasting Method:


 A moving average is a technical indicator that market analysts and
investors may use to determine the direction of a trend.
 A moving average is a statistic that captures the average change in a
data series over time.
 A moving average is a technique that calculates the overall trend in a
data set. In Project management, the data set is sales volume from
historical data of the company. This technique is very useful for
forecasting short-term trends. It is simply the average of a select set of
time periods.

 Types of Moving Averages:


1. Simple Moving Average
2. Weighted Moving Average
3. Exponential Smoothing Moving Average
Terms to Remember:
 The Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) is the sum of absolute differences between the actual
value and the forecast divided by the number of observations. MAD is the same as MAE, Mean
Absolute Error.

 Mean square error (MSE) is probably the most commonly used error metric. It penalizes larger
errors because squaring larger numbers has a greater impact than squaring smaller numbers.
The MSE is the sum of the squared errors divided by the number of observations.

 Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) is the average of absolute errors divided by actual
observation values. MAPE should not be used if there are zeros or near-zeros in the actual data.
