 INTRODUCTION

Project management is the use of knowledge, skills, and

of the techniques to project activities to meet project requirements
which involves carrying out a series of activities that consume resources such as
time, money, people, materials, energy, communication among others to achieve
some predefined objectives.

This type of project management allows for anticipating solutions to the serious

problem of defining the responsibilities of each of the

people who make up an organization.

In this research, we will study all the topics related to the

project management such as where to apply the projects, what their
characteristics, how to manage a project, the various types of management by
project
from project management, all this with the purpose of obtaining
knowledge related to the topic since as future managers it will concern us
be of great use.
WHAT IS A PROJECT?

A project is a planned, temporary, and unique effort undertaken to create

unique products or services that add value or create change
beneficial. This in contrast to the more traditional way of working, based on
to processes, in which it operates permanently, creating the same ones
products or services over and over again.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Project management is the discipline of organizing and managing the

resources, in such a way that a given project is completely finished
within the constraints of scope, time, and cost set at its beginning, the
which involves executing a series of activities that consume resources such as
time, money, people, materials, energy, communication (among others) for
achieve predefined goals.

It is also considered a system of definition, planning, and control of

projects, whose principle is based on programming, organization and
direction of the different stages that make up a project.

Project management is a task that must be done carefully.

using the correct methodology to measure risk and scope of the
projects avoiding loss of time and budget overruns "the
best practices in project management are directed towards a company with
capacity to manage and accurately anticipate costs, times, risks, quality
and security. This allows entrepreneurial companies to support and increase
its infrastructure, improve its management and channeling of investment and at the same
time facilitates competitiveness.

PROJECT APPLICATION

Projects can be applied at all levels of the organization. Since

these can involve a single person or several individuals. Their
duration ranges from a few weeks to over five years. The projects
they can involve a single unit of an organization or they can
crossing organizational boundaries in the form of partnerships
contractual and corporate. Projects are critical for compliance with
the business strategy of the organization that executes them, due to the fact that the
Projects are a way to implement the strategy.

Among the examples of projects are:

Development of a new product or service

Implementation of a change in the structure, staffing or style of a
organization
Design of a new transport vehicle
Development or acquisition of a new information system
modified
Construction of a building or a floor
Construction of a drinking water system for a community of a
developing country.
Carrying out a campaign for a political purpose.
Implementation of a new procedure or process.

CHARACTERISTICS

Objectives and goals (the project must be viable, sustainable and

measurable, with assigned talents and resources, without stress and with a good atmosphere

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Project management is the discipline of knowledge, tools,

techniques, skills or abilities for the activities themselves and obtain the
project requirements. This is obtained through the use of the different
processes such as: initiation, planning, execution, controlling and
closure.

The management of a project involves the execution of digital solutions that

they require project management within a certain time frame. Aware
of the challenge that each project requires, applies a leadership in the format of
development process and what is available to us when managing
the different steps, complexities and risks. With each phase that
the client's objectives are being met in the process,
together with the data that I can provide to support the work of
formed team.

The management of the website development process begins with the work of
consulting at the client's side and in the definition of languages and tools
to be used in the professional environment of the team that needs to integrate. All of this

help our team design the strategy that allows during practice
integrate a work model focused on creativity and management that includes the
client, sales representatives, partners, and others involved.

The development process allows for the definition of each objective and the transfer
all together in a robust, flexible, scalable, and relevant approach of a
solution for the Internet, where leadership allows the project to be completed on time
our client in harmony with the budget and the strategies:

Anticipating delays and risks

Planning the requirements
Defining the costs
Managing the content

PHASES OF THE PROJECT

 Pre-Construction Planning

A clear vision, focus, and direction are essential for a successful project.
The first step is to become part of their team and interview with their upper management.
to make their corporate philosophy, objectives, and goals their own; as well as
establish that your budgets and work schedule align with the plan of
business. These meetings are key, as they define the parameters under which
how the project's success will be measured. pre-construction planning
it allows a logical analysis and ordering of their physical needs and what is the
optimal configuration and methodology of the required work.

2. Design

80% of the hard costs are defined in the first 30% of the design phase.
Due to the potential for achieving savings decreasing substantially
After this stage, it is important to have the expertise of your team.
I work in the early stages of the project.

3. Budget Review

The coordination of the design process ensures that the specifications and
construction plans are complete, ensuring that the budgets
they will include all expected items.

4. Negotiation

When the different quotes are received, the team carries out
comparisons apples with apples taking into account the aspects very much
that each contractor excludes from their quotation. Interviews are being prepared with

each contractor to analyze item by item the content of their proposal and
request the revisions if necessary.

5. Construction Monitoring

With the structured management team, the final reviews are carried out of
insurance, bonds, physical security, and permits on the job site. During the process,
it will develop a continuous and intense quality control activity, control of
costs and progress control certain. Through a constant presence in the
work and periodic coordination meetings, strict rules will be established
of the report for all those involved.

6. Closure

A vital aspect that is commonly overlooked is the project closure. This

activity ensures that the facilities are operational, ready to open to
public, according to the planned corporate goals.

MULTIPLE PROJECTS

Collaboration systems.

They are designed to support multiple users who modify various sections.
from the plan immediately updating the areas of which they are
personally responsible, so that those estimates remain
integrated within the general plan

They are systems that help people work together, using the
technology

These systems collaborate in:

Communicate ideas

Share Resources

Coordinate Efforts

Reuse solutions to recurring problems

Improve coordination between teams through portals and

automated notifications

Store, link, and centrally share information such as

documents, problems and risks related to the plans of

completed with quality, within budget and on time

FUNCTIONS OF THE PROJECT MANAGER

Define the Project

Plan
Assemble the Human Capital
Obtaining the support of Management
Define the operations
Control the Project

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PROJECT MANAGER

He/She has a broad profile, great experience and knowledge.

Ensure that the objectives of the Project are met.
He is the key person in the success of a project through his
Skills.
It is the person responsible for ensuring the scope of the work.
Provide leadership throughout the lifecycle so that the team achieves
the objective of the Project.

Project Manager Skills

Leadership: is getting work done through others, it consists of

encourage people to work in teams.
Motivation: to encourage people to reach high levels of
performance and overcome the obstacles arising from the changes.
Effective communication: it is the constant communication with your team, Knowing
listen more than speak.
Credibility: it must transmit sufficient technical knowledge.
reasonable for any type of project that requires the work team.
 Advantages of project management

It allows increasing efficiency in terms of execution times, scope,

quality specifications, benefits and costs, in accordance with the budget
approved.
It allows optimizing and creating greater efficiency in the activities of the company that
they require a special development to achieve the desired growth and
expected.
The results are reflected in the decrease of costs in terms of
time, scope, objectives and in the business's profits.
All projects, no matter how insignificant they may seem, have degrees of risk.
but with project management there is the possibility to plan, identify,
analyze qualitatively and quantitatively the risk through scenarios
with probability levels, sensitivity analysis, of the monetary value
expected based on decision making.

Disadvantages of project management

There is a trend to select project managers solely based on their
technical skills. While experience and knowledge are very
important, they can never replace the role of a leader.
Organizations confuse management with leadership. Managing the cycle of
the life of the project is to structure, plan, control, and successfully conclude a
project. Leading is defining a vision and helping all those involved to
implement it.
