A Practical Approach to Visualizing Different Phases of Project Management Using MSProject
Hrithik Raj, Ritu Punhani, Ishika Punhani · Advances in computational intelligence and robotics book series · 2023
This chapter discusses the problems of project preparation, project planning, project execution, and monitoring of a real-world project. Emphasis is placed on MS Project – a software product designed to create plans, projects, and schedules as well as control and management of their implementation. It is discussed in a practical manner its ability to understand how much time and work developers are investing in a software project. As a result, the project management actions helped the project be delivered on time without compromising any time, budget, or resource constraints. The authors considered different scenarios related to project risk. They used the project crashing technique, and the time of the project was significantly reduced allowing the project to finish on time. The relations between the activities, the resources, and the time for their implementation are defined. The effectiveness of using different types of calendars—standard and continuous—specific to the continuous mining activities is evaluated.
