Title Statement:Take control of your projects, and stop being a victim of late requirements [electronic resource] / David Koenig.

Abstract:When project managers fail to control a project's scope, when they allow new requirements late in the project life cycle, the project team will usually finish the project late and over-budget. This paper examines how project managers can use a set of basic project management tools to effectively control a project's schedule and efficiently plan its resources. In doing so, it describes three reasons why scope creep and late requirements occur; it lists six questions that can help project managers clearly establish a project's delivery expectations and accurately target its completion date. It explains the process of using the "working backward/working forward" model for developing deadline-driven project scheduling estimates; it identifies several questions for understanding a project's scope expectations and assumptions. It then explains the process of developing and managing a project staffing plan. It also discusses how project managers can use "due versus done" metrics to manage team performance in relation to meeting milestones and identifying--and addressing--project issues.
