It is structured into two categories; lean enterprise and lean system. Lean enterprise emphasizes on organization culture where staffs are in a constant improvement of their skills and production levels. On the other hand, lean system concentrates on waste (Mura) prevention such as labour, materials used and extra time that is not valuable to the main production service (Oehmen et al., 2012). Project management is defined as an application of skills, knowledge ...

In project management fast moving schedules may at times be necessary, its technique employed to save time, fast moving schedules entail doing several things at once which necessitates re-arranging of tasks (Schiff, J. 2012).

The cost, time, specification triangle is a visual way of expressing the constraints that govern all project management projects (Lock, 2007, p. 7). It is a useful way to show the relationship between the key components of a project and because of their inter-relationship, it provides a reminder that changes in any of the three constraints will have an impact on the remaining ones. However, there are issues when attempting to use this approach as the sole way of determining if a project was successful. In particular, the cost, time, and specification are always determined in relation to the needs of the client for ...

Reasons for Project Failure

A project is considered to have failed if it fails to deliver what was required according to its expectations. Whenever a project does not deliver to cost, to quality, and on timely basis, it can be considered to have failed to attain its targets. Project failure can be described in different ways, such as the judgement of the stakeholders on project failure, failure to meet the set delivery plan, failure to meet the set duration for project completion, failure to meet the financial forecasts, and failure to meet the set minimum return of investment. The main causes of project ...

In the history of Olympics, this project has been termed by many experts as being the most complex in Europe. A number of factors conspired to ensure this is the case. First, the project was to be delivered within a short deadline that was provided for.

The second reason why the project was complex is because of the unique environment in which it was to be located. The ...

Introduction

In the process of designing and implementing projects, some ethical issues are faced by the project managers on a daily basis. If such ethical issues are not dealt with effectively with solutions, the efficiency of project implementation becomes reduced significantly. Ethical issues relate to how team members develop and sustain a good working relationship with each other and vary in the type of project and the region involved. There are no existing hard and fast rules that act as directives to solutions when ethical challenges arise. Therefore, professionals need to apply both leadership and entrepreneurial skills to resolve ethical ...

The manifesto was developed keeping in mind the following assumptions in project management:
System design by nature keeps evolving. Product module releases should be quick enough to keep pace with the changing demands.

1. Which side would you take in the debate between Huerta and Calder? I think Calder makes a substantial point that Huerta is not able to overcome. Huerta's solution to scope creep is more upfront planning and more disciplined decision making. Many projects at the company are behind schedule and over budget. Huerta's analysis seems logical and reasonable in that she locates poor and undisciplined planning from the start as the root cause of the problem. Calder's problem with this reasoning is that it is too simplistic in its time line of when the problems start and how to ...

Project scheduling

It is difficult to determine the expected duration of activities of the project accurately. The triple time estimates give a reliable measure of the project completion period (Collins, 2011). The triple time estimates are used to determine the time, standard deviation and the variance for each activity as well as the entire project. The following formula gives the activity times:
Activity time = (Optimistic time+4×Most likely time+pessimistic time)6
Standard deviation = (Pessimistic time- Optimistic time)6

Network diagram

The above network diagram indicates that the project will be completed in 72.67 days. The total duration of the critical path ...

There are very low chances for a flood of more magnitude than that of 1990 to occur. The probability of occurrence of the 1990 flood was 0.06. This indicates that probability of occurrence of the flood in the year was substantially low. 6/100 is a substantially low frequency. This means that, probability of occurrence of a greater flooding than this is insignificantly low because it is less than six percent, hence, it is negligible. A flood of a greater magnitude than that of 1990 is unexpected; this is an important point to consider in determining what prevention measures are worth implementing in the ...
