3. 1) Introduction of Project Management
1.1) Project :
o A group of milestones or phases, activities or tasks that
support an effort to accomplish something.
oA collection of linked activities, carried out in an organized
manner, with a clearly defined START POINT and END
POINT to achieve some specific results
3PROJECT MANAGEMENT & CMM8/17/2014
4. 1.2) Management :
o It is the process of Planning, Organizing, Controlling and
directing an organization to accomplish a goal.

5. 1.3) Project Management
• A process that utilizes the appropriate resources of the
organization in a controlled and structured manner, to
achieve some clearly defined objectives identified as
needs.
• It is always conducted within a defined set of constraints
5PROJECT MANAGEMENT & CMM8/17/2014
6. 2) Need Of Project Management
• Planning
• Organizing
• Controlling
• Measuring
6PROJECT MANAGEMENT & CMM8/17/2014
7. 3) Implementation
• Regular Monitoring
• Resource Support
• Critical issues discussed and solution
• Meeting with the team on completion of each major milestone
• Track the progress against the plan
• System to add/delete tasks

8. 4) Advantages
• Easy and Early identification of Bottlenecks
• Activity based costing
• Identification and Addition of missing and new activities
• Preempting unnecessary activity/expenditure
• Timely Completion
• Reporting

10. 6) Introduction of CMM
• CMM: Capability Maturity Model
• Developed by the Software Engineering Institute of the
Carnegie Mellon University
• Framework that describes the key elements of an effective
software process.

11. 7) CMM Levels
(The five levels of software process maturity)
Maturity level indicates level of process capability:
Initial
Repeatable
Defined
Managed
Optimizing
11PROJECT MANAGEMENT & CMM8/17/2014
12. Initial : The software process is characterized as ad hoc,
and occasionally even chaotic. Few processes are defined,
and success depends on individual effort.
Repeatable : Objective of it’s to set effective
management processes for software projects, which allow
organizations to repeat successful practices developed on
earlier projects.
Defined : The software process for both management
and engineering activities is documented, standardized, and
integrated into a standard software process for the
organization.
12PROJECT MANAGEMENT & CMM8/17/2014
13. Managed : Detailed measures of the software
process and product quality are collected. Both the
software process and products are quantitatively
understood and controlled.
Optimizing : Continuous process improvement is
enabled by quantitative feedback from the process and
from piloting innovative ideas and technologies.

15. 9) CONCLUSION
Project management
1) Clarify the objective of project
2) Focus on the right things in the right way
3) Reduce risks.
CMM
The program guided by CMM resulted in increased
“productivity, quality, time to delivery, accuracy of cost and
schedule estimates as well as product quality.”
