First chapter
The first chapter of the sixth edition of the PMBOK addresses the below topics:
INTRODUCTION: I understood the first chapter of the book's introductory part of project management as
detailed follows. In the previous time, this was also significant. I gained some insight into the basics of project
management, or more specifically, features of project management with the help of the introduction, which I
will cover below. As I have shown in the situation below, without excellent project management, the project
would fail. I also read about the life cycle of a project. What is the structure of the project lifecycle? How each
phase is completed reflects the achievement of project objectives? I've gained information about the program,
procedures, and portfolios, as well as many other documents.

starting of project:
Project demands careful preparation in all areas, such as money management and time management.
The individual must follow all legal responsibilities, as well as the completion of all paper formalities
and the acquiring of credentials. It would also take into account social demands, such as consumer
needs.
Program management:
It is defined as the supervision of a huge number of projects. All efforts depends on one another for the
greatest results. To put it in other words, I believe that endeavors are linked. There may be several
projects under program management, but they are all small to medium-sized.
Portfolio management:
A portfolio consists of programs, projects, operations, and sub-portfolios, or when programs, projects,
operations, and sub-portfolios combine to achieve a shared purpose. The management of a portfolio is
referred to as portfolio management.
For example: A bakery (which produces several types of ice creams, cupcakes, chocolate rolls) has
several projects, operations and programs run at same time. A project is described as the daily
manufacturing of cupcakes, ice cream, and chocolate rolls at a specific rate. A program is made up of
three initiatives that are all going at the same time: manufacturing, wrapping, and delivery. Operation
refers to the day-to-day manufacture of ice creams, cupcakes, chocolate rolls.
For a single bakery, a portfolio refers to all of these processes (manufacturing, wrapping, and delivery).
Operation management:
Operations are continual processes that keep the system functioning or meet client requests. A
technique that is performed again and again is referred to as a "repeated process." There are no limits
to how far activities can go. A school, for example, is developed as a project, but students come in on a
constant schedule, and studying their subjects based on their classes; this is called to as an operation.
I've learned from this book that there are several factors that contribute to the project's success.

Project phase: A specific step is referred to as a particular phase to represent the stages that
contribute to the project's success. The project phase is also known as the project steps.
Phase gate: it is final phase before the project is closed.
Project management processes: These are the stages that take place between the input

Many actions are involved in moving a project from its present state to its future state; hence
process groups are made up of these activities. Stated below:

Introduction
The project exists and functions in environments that may have an impact on them. These
variables might influence the project in either a positive or negative way. Enterprise
environmental factors (EEFs) and organizational process assets are two important kinds of effect
(OPAs)., EEFs may have an impression at the organizational, portfolio, program, or project level.
Internal OPAs exist within the organization.
These might originate from the company, a portfolio, a program, a single project, or a
combination of all of the above.
Enterprise environmental factors (EEFs) are circumstances that influence, constrain, or direct
the company's internal and external activities. EEFs are used as inputs in several project
management methods, particularly most planning methods. These characteristics may aid or
obstruct project management options.
Chapter-3
Introduction:
The PM plays a critical role in the supervision of a team in order to meet the organization's
goal. This function is clearly visible across the project. Many project managers discover
themselves in this scenario. They would be part of this project from start to conclusion.
Therefore, in several of these businesses, a project manager is necessary. The manager could
be involved in appraisal and analytic work ahead of the start of the project. A manager is an
individual in command of a project who is responsible for the successful follow-up actions in
order to achieve the project's goals. The project manager may be requested to oversee or
assist with business analysis, business case development, and other aspects of project portfolio
management in some situations.
The Project:
The manager of the project is in charge of handling his project team to achieve the project's
objectives and meet the stakeholders' demands. The project manager attempts to find the
balance between the project's opposing constraints and its available resources.
Furthermore, the project manager serves as a link between the project sponsor, members
of the team, and other participants. This entails delivering instructions and conveying the
project's success vision. The project manager makes use of soft talents. (e.g., interpersonal
skills).
I gained a lot of knowledge about project management, along with how projects function
and what factors to consider before starting a new project, as well as the environment in
which projects operate and the job of a project manager. Dalia Haggag, my lecturer, is very
kind and patient, and she properly teaches the material.
