Before initiating, typical activities include determining scope, time, cost, identifying sponsors and managers, and developing a business case.

    Briefly describe what happens in each of the five project management process

    groups (initiating, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and closing).


    What types of activities occur before initiating a project?

    Initiating processes include defining and authorizing a project or project


    phase. Initiating processes take place during each phase of a project.

    Planning processes include devising and maintaining a workable scheme to


    ensure that the project addresses the organization’s needs. There are several
    plans for projects, such as the scope management plan, schedule management
    plan, cost management plan, procurement management plan, and so on,
    defining each knowledge area as it relates to the project at that point in time.

    Executing processes include coordinating people and other resources to carry


    out the various plans and produce the products, services, or results of the
    project or phase

    Monitoring and controlling processes include regularly measuring and


    monitoring progress to ensure that the project team meets the project
    objectives. The project manager and staff monitor and measure progress
    against the plans and take corrective action when necessary. A common
    monitoring and controlling process is reporting performance, where project
    stakeholders can identify any necessary changes that may be required to keep
    the project on track.

    Closing processes include formalizing acceptance of the project or project


    phase and ending it efficiently. Administrative activities are often involved in
    this process group, such as archiving project files, closing out contracts,
    documenting lessons learned, and receiving formal acceptance of the delivered
    work as part of the phase or project.

    • Determine the scope, time, and cost constraints for the project. • Identify
    the project sponsor. • Select the project manager. • Develop a business case
    for a project. • Meet with the project manager to review the process and
    expectations for managing the project. • Determine if the project should be
    divided into two or more smaller projects.
    Why do organizations need to tailor project management concepts, such as
    those found in the PMBOK® Guide, to create their own methodologies?
    -Although each project is different and unique, according to the Method
    Statement of PMBoK, customising is required. Not that every procedure, tool,
    methodology, input, or output listed in the PMBoK Guide is mandated for
    every project. Scope, timeline, cost, materials, quality, and danger should all be
    considered while tailoring

    What are some of the typical challenges project teams face during each of the
    five process groups?
    Some of the challenges that can be encountered during the process are:
    securing necessary financial resources, and setting communication in place
    with stakeholders.
    Phasing determinations are made so that a timeline and outcome benchmarks
    can be set in place.
    Identifying and quantifying all stakeholders and other individuals who are
    impacted by the project.
    Preparing the project charter.
    Setting the teams in place to get the work done efficiently and effectively.
    obtaining permits.
    Supporting teams with the tools and knowledge needed to do the job most
    effectively
    make sure no pieces have been left undone.
    making last minute budget adjustments.
