During the early “conceptual” phase of a project life-cycle – considering for instance a competitive bidding process when a request for bidding has been received by an engineering & contracting company and the decision to bid has been made – the main objective of the proposal manager is to achieve an effective trade-off between the bid competitive value on the side of the client expectations an...

Beginning in 1992, the Slow The Spread (STS) pilot project was initiated to target gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) spread rate reduction by controlling populations in the transition zone. The project uses intensive monitoring techniques, with pheromone-baited sticky moth traps, to detect low-level populations and target them for eradication. The primary objective of the pilot project was to ev...

Project Management process plays a significant role in effective development of software projects. Key challenges in the project management process are the estimation of time, cost, defect count, and subsequently selection of apt developers. Therefore precise estimation of above stated factors decides the success level of a project. This paper provides an empirical study of several projects dev...

The lack of integrated project control techniques covering both qualitative and quantitative indices is one of the most important reasons leading to unfinished projects under predetermined schedules and expected budgets. Two modern techniques proposed in project control—the critical chain method and buffer management (CCM/BM), and the earned value analysis or earned value management and earned ...

management of project's knowledge is very effective in the performance of project management and carries a great portion in achieving the targets of organization and projects. in project-oriented organization, knowledge and experiences of projects play a crucial role. accurate identification and suitable application of knowledge in success of knowledge management is necessary. this combine...

The project is in the complicated natural and social environment, which is filled with a lot of uncertainty and the resulting risk often affects the smooth implementation of the project, project urgent need to strengthen risk management. Despite the current domestic and overseas engineering project Risk management theory research has quite high level, project risk analysis and evaluation method...

This paper describes about the need for Web project management, fundamentals of project management for web projects: what it is, why projects go wrong, and what's different about web projects. We also discuss Cost Estimation Techniques based on Size Metrics. Though Web project development is similar to traditional software development applications, the special characteristics of Web Application...

Building on an earlier exploratory study, this paper investigates the drivers of the possible mismatch between traditional "real" IT project management performance criteria quality, time and cost and "perceived" project management performance. We use partial least squares structural equation modeling to test five main hypotheses with survey data from 248 managers with extensive IT/IS project in...

Time–cost trade-off problems (TCT) are well-known in project management contents. This approach normally applied for scheduling of a project especially where the project should be completed under pre-determined deadline. This paper aims to extend time-cost trade-off (TCT) problems in order to provide a well-organized mechanism for both scheduling and rescheduling processes of a project. The pro...
