TRAINING MODULE IN PROJECT MANAGEMENT
(Created by the Institute for Development Management, Botswana for the
NGO Institute, STF. (Some materials in this module have been extracted from A Guide
to Project Management Body of Knowledge, 3rd. edition, 2004)
What is a project?
A temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product or service.
The Three Ps
Program- operates over the long-term, and is designed to use the organizations
resources to impact a specific subject area that is part of an organizations mission
to improve public health.
Project- has a beginning and end, defined resources, and creates a unique product
or service.
Process- part of the ongoing operations of the organization; may be introduced or
changed over time, but once established, an organizational process operates on a
continuous basis without a specified end.
People skillsthe ability to manage and motivate people who will implement the
project activities, communicate effectively with stakeholders, and resolve conflicts and
interpersonal problems.
Where do we begin?
Project selection can be a difficult process, especially when there are a large number of
potential projects competing for scarce dollars.
Some selection methods are highly intuitive; some very political.
Others try to add rigor through more scientific selection processes.
Our Winner!!
Project Agreement
What: A written description that clearly communicates what the project is (and is not)
When: Ideally, at the beginning of a project. Also useful to develop one for a project already
started. Update it as needed.
Why:
Establish agreement between project team members and stakeholders about what the
project is (and is not)
Build team member commitment team should write the charter together
Foundation for project planning
Helps in managing expectations
Communicate project to others

Project Deliverables
Define the measurable, tangible items that must be produced to complete the project
Project Quality:
Critical Success Factors
Project Assumptions
Factors the team considers to be true, certain, and necessary for a successful project
Should be documented and validated that they are true
Create a risk to project if they are not true
Cost
how much?
Time
how fast?
Quality/Scope
how good?
Need to discuss with customer and sponsor near startup and agree on priority order.
May change over time, but a change is a significant event!
Change Management
Request for changes to project elements or scope need to be analyzed and approved
Impact of changes on project need to be documented
Changes that impact project need to be negotiated (they may require more budget, time)
Approved changes need to be recorded

Resources (not available when needed; under qualified people)
Budget (when resources are uncertain)
Uncertainty = Risk
4. For risks with high risk index, create management plan that includes:
Rate probability, impact, and degree of control using rating scale of:
1 = Low
2 = Medium
3 = High
Risk Index =
