4 Basic Principles of Project Management
How Project Management Tool Helps Sticking To
Basic Project Management Principles
  • Each project is unique in some or other way. it
    has its own challenges, objectives, methodology,
    team composition, stakeholder, etc.
  • However there are few underlying principles that
    defines and governs project structure, work.
  • Depending on how these principles are followed,
    project success can be traced and evaluated.
  • Organizations can consider using project
    management tool to facilitate to follow these
    project management principles in a structured
    manner.

1 Project Objectives and Goals Deliver
Business value
  • Well before a project planning kicks off or even
    before it gets started, primary stakeholders like
    sponsor, project manager, project planner,
    customers should highlight project objectives and
    goals.
  • It is important for stakeholders to understand
    what we want to achieve from this project, the
    objective behind doing a project could be cost
    reduction, improvement in customer satisfaction,
    better reporting, etc

2 Time Management Ensure Product, Service,
Market Relevance
  • The most emphasized element of project
    management project timeline how and when
    project is delivered. Project management system
    enables project planners and managers to define
    work breakdown structure, create track project
    schedule, define task list, task dependency,
    milestones, check resource workload, automated
    reminder to project team members for due tasks,
    showing task progress in Gantt chart and
    dashboard.

3 Cost Efficiency Drive Profitability and
Sustainability
  • Project cost is vital from financial perspective
    since every project needs to be funded by its own
    organization or client.
  • And whoever is sponsoring project, want to see
    the bang for bucks, see the return for his
    investment.
  • The ability to have enough budget for project in
    order to execute it despite of risks and shocks,
    estimating project cost reasonably before budget
    is allocated, tracking project cost on an ongoing
    basis to keep it within budget and importantly
    drive project towards profitability (accounting
    earned value, tangible/intangible benefits).

4 Risk Management Minimize Vulnerability and
Tap Opportunities
  • Risk management is often followed as a
    conventional and mostly a routine exercise
    without realizing that it is an important element
    for managing project.
  • Merely having a spreadsheet to represent risk
    register and having stale entries in this
    spreadsheet represent a sorry state of project
    management.
  • It may be a strong statement but for fairly large
    projects and project where significant financial
    investments are made, there can be no excuse for
    not managing project risks.
  • Project risk management is necessary for prudent
    project management.

Benefits of Using Project Management Software
  • Project management software provides small to
    large businesses, who undoubtedly juggle a number
    of tasks, with a solution that helps keep them
    organized.
  • There are a wide variety of project management
    software packages available, including web-based
    applications accessible from any location.
  • Each software boasts its own set of features, but
    they all share common benefits businesses can
    appreciate.

1 Collaborate on Projects
  • Employees are often assigned individual tasks
    that are a part of a larger project an entire
    team is working to complete.
  • Project management software gives employees a way
    to collaborate on projects by sharing documents,
    timelines and status updates.

2 Delegate Tasks
  • As a business owner, you likely weigh the
    knowledge, skills and abilities of employees
    before delegating tasks to them.
  • Use project management software to easily
    delegate tasks to the appropriate employees.

3 Stay on Schedule
  • Project management software lets project
    managers add a start and expected completion date
    to projects and tasks they include in the system.
  • This information alerts employees to upcoming
    deadlines, allowing them to manage their time
    appropriately to complete tasks before or on the
    listed due date.

4 Track Projects
  • Keep track of the progress of projects with
    project management software. The software will
    let you know what's been completed, as well as by
    whom, and what still needs to be done.
  • Employees can provide updates as to what they're
    working on and share their updates with the
    project manager and team members. The software
    eliminates the need for status update meetings
    and emails.

5 Provide a Snapshot
  • When training new staff members and introducing
    them to projects your company works on, project
    management software offers a snapshot of the
    project you can share to get new staff
    up-to-speed.
  • The snapshot allows you to show employees the
    project from start to finish, give them
    background information and let them know how the
    project will move forward.

6 Communicate with Clients and Vendors
  • Project management software enables businesses to
    share and collaborate with clients and vendors in
    addition to employees.
  • Companies using project management software can
    provide their clients with usernames and
    passwords giving them access to project files.
  • Clients can give feedback, make edits and review
    progress. CNN Money asserts that, because
    businesses need to be connected to vendors and
    clients, project management technology is
    essential.

About us
  • We, the co-founders of Zilicus, were working
    together in RD unit of Parametric Technology
    Corporation that offers CAD, CAM, CAE software
    along with Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)
    solution.
  • In this company, we worked with customers from
    US (Aerospace, mobile, Technology co.), Europe
    Japan (Automotive, technology co).
  • We realized how these organizations greatly
    benefit from PLM kind of solution which
    significantly reduced Time-To-Market (TTM) of new
    products (NPD).
  • It was pretty clear that the factors which
    contributed to success/failure of product launch
    for these companies have been collaboration,
    right resources were provided with right access
    to correct knowledge i.e.
