Title Statement:Milestone planning--a different planning approach [electronic resource] / Erling S. Andersen.
Main Author - Personal:Andersen, Erling S.
Journal Citation:PMI Global Congress 2006--Asia Pacific. Proceedings, PMB07.PDF.
Publisher:Project Management Institute
Language:English
Abstract:Traditionally, project managers develop their project plans around the activities that their team needs to perform in order to complete the project and accomplish its objectives. This paper discusses an alternative approach to planning projects, one that is structured around milestones and focused on goals and results. In doing so, it explains the challenges in planning projects and identifies the shortcomings of network planning practices. It then outlines a three-tiered approach to project planning, one that involves the strategic, tactical, and operational. It defines two types of strategies-positioning and implementation-and details a milestone-based project plan, suggesting a process that can help project managers develop and implement this plan.
