Project integration management
basic concept
Project integration management content
Including identifying, defining, combining, unifying and coordinating the various processes and project management activities of the project management process group
Project integration management nature
With the nature of unification, merger, communication and establishing connections, project integration management runs through the entire project.
Project integration management goals
1. Resource allocation
2. Balancing competing demands
3. Research alternatives
4. Tailor the process to achieve project goals
5. Manage dependencies between various project management knowledge areas
management basics
Perform integration
Project manager responsibilities
Integration is a key skill for project managers
Project integration management is the responsibility of the project manager, who is responsible for integrating the results of all other knowledge areas and grasping the overall situation of the project
Responsibility for project integration management cannot be delegated or transferred, and the project manager must bear ultimate responsibility for the entire project.
dual role
At the organizational level (external)
Work with project sponsors to understand strategic objectives and ensure project goals and outcomes are aligned with portfolios, programs, and business areas
At the project level (internal)
Coach your team to focus on what really matters and work together
Process level execution integration
Cognitive level execution integration
Contextual level execution integration
Integration Complexity
source
System behavior of organizations, human behavior, and uncertainty in organizations or environments
The meaning of complexity
1. Contains multiple parts
2. There are a series of connections between different parts
3. Dynamic interactions between different parts
4. These interactions produce behaviors that are far greater than the sum of their parts (e.g., emergent behavior)
new management practices
1. Use information tools
Collect, analyze and use information to support achievement of project objectives and project benefits
2. Use visual management tools
Capture and monitor key project elements through intuitive formats such as visual analysis tables
3. Project knowledge management
Communicate the knowledge accumulated during the project life cycle to the target audience and prevent knowledge loss
4. Project manager responsibilities outside the project
Work with the management and PMO on feasibility studies and evaluations and benefit management before and after project establishment.
To more fully identify stakeholders and guide their involvement in the project
Manage the project manager's interface with functional departments, operations and senior management
5. hybrid approach
Project management plan and project documents
project management plan
Sub-management plan
1. scope management plan
2. demand management plan
3. progress management plan
4. cost management plan
5. quality management plan
6. resource management plan
7. communication management plan
8. risk management plan
9. Procurement Management Plan
10. Stakeholder Engagement Plan
benchmark
1. Scope Baseline
2. progress baseline
3. cost basis

project integration management process
Tailoring considerations
Because each project is unique, the project manager may tailor the project integration management process as needed. Not all of the 49 processes must be retained. The project manager may tailor (delete) certain processes at his or her discretion.
include
Project life cycle, development life cycle, management methods, knowledge management, change, governance, lessons learned, benefits
Agile and adaptive methods
Adopting an agile or adaptive approach can help project managers delegate decision-making so that team members can make their own decisions and control the planning and delivery of specific products.
Develop project charter
Process overview
definition
Is the process of writing a document that formally approves a project and authorizes the project manager to use organizational resources in project activities
main effect
1. Clarify the direct link between the project and the organization's strategic goals
2. Establish the formal status of the project
3. Demonstrate organizational commitment to the project
This process is carried out only once or only at a predefined time in the project
Project Charter
effect
1. The project charter (internal) cannot be regarded as a contract. When executing external projects, a formal contract is usually required to reach a cooperation agreement.
2. Mainly used to establish cooperative relationships within the organization (Party B, contractor) to ensure correct delivery of contract content
3. Authorizes the project manager to carry out planning, execution and control in the project management process, and also authorizes the project manager to use organizational resources in project activities. Therefore, the project manager should be appointed before planning begins. The sooner the project manager confirms and appoints the better, the better. It is good to appoint a project manager when developing the project charter.
4. Specify the overall goals of the project, including scope, time, cost, quality, etc.
The project charter can be prepared by the sponsor or by the project manager in collaboration with the sponsoring organization. The project manager cannot issue or modify the project charter, but can participate in its preparation
Once the project charter is approved, it marks the official launch of the project
Project begining
The project is initiated by someone external to the project, such as the sponsor, the program or project management office (PMO), the chair of the portfolio governance committee, or their authorized representative. The project initiator or sponsor should have certain authority and be able to obtain funds and provide resources for the project
enter
(Party B’s, internal) project management documents
effect
The approved results of the project management stage or relevant project management documents are the basis for formulating the project charter.
Senior managers of organizations usually use project management documents as the basis for decision-making
Include
Project proposal, feasibility study report, project evaluation report
Project management documents are not project documents. The project manager cannot update or modify them, but can only make relevant suggestions.
protocol
Including contracts, memorandums of understanding (MOUs), service level agreements (SLAs), letters of agreement, letters of intent, oral agreements or other written agreements
When working on a project for an external client, a contract is usually required

main effect
Produce a comprehensive document that establishes the basis for all project work and how it will be performed
project management plan
effect
Determine how the project will be executed, monitored and closed, which will vary depending on the application area and complexity of the project
A project management plan can be general or detailed, formal or informal, and the level of detail in each component depends on the requirements of the specific project.
Benchmarking
That is to say, at least the scope, time (progress) and cost benchmarks of the project should be specified in order to evaluate the project execution and manage the project performance accordingly.
Before determining the baseline
The project management plan may be updated multiple times and these updates do not need to follow a formal process
After determining the baseline
Updates can only be made by filing a change request and implementing the overall change control process
The project management plan needs to be progressively detailed through ongoing updates before project closure, and these updates need to be controlled and approved
enter
Project Charter
Starting point for initial project planning
Contains high-level information about the project that can be further refined by the various components of the project management plan
Outputs from other knowledge area planning processes
Creating a project management plan requires integrating the outputs of many processes
The output sub-plans and baselines are inputs to this process, and changes to these sub-plans and baselines may result in corresponding updates to the project management plan.

Influence
May affect project scope, product scope, any project management plan component or any project document
propose
At any time throughout the project life cycle, any stakeholder involved in the project can submit a change request
benchmark
Before confirming
Changes do not need to be formally controlled and a holistic change control process is implemented
after deciding
Change requests must be handled by implementing a holistic change control process
Changes may be made verbally, but all change requests must be documented in writing and incorporated into the change management and/or configuration management system
approve
principal
Each documented change request must be approved, deferred, or denied by a responsible person
This responsible person (decision-maker) should be designated in the project management plan or organizational procedure. The responsible person is usually the project sponsor or project manager. If necessary, the CCB (Change Control Board) should be used to carry out the overall change control process.
Before approval
It may be necessary to understand the impact of changes on schedule and cost, and where a change request may affect any project baseline, a formal overall change control process will be required
After approval
May require new (or revised) cost estimates, activity sequencing, schedule dates, resource requirements, and/or risk response analysis, and these changes may require adjustments to the project management plan and other project documents.

output
Approved change request
definition
The project manager, CCB or designated team member handles change requests according to the change management plan and makes decisions to approve, defer or reject
implement
Approved change requests should be implemented through the Direct and Manage project work process
Project Management Plan (updated)
Any formally controlled component of the project management plan can be changed by implementing an integrated change control process
Changes to the benchmark can only be based on the latest version of the benchmark and respond to future situations, but cannot change past performance, ensuring the seriousness and integrity of the benchmark and historical performance data.
Project files (updated)
Any formally controlled project document can be changed during the implementation of the overall change control process, and all changes that occur during the project will be recorded in the change log.
End project or phase
Process overview
definition
Is the process of terminating all activities of a project, phase or contract
main effect
Archive project or phase information and complete planned work
Free up organizational team resources for new work
It is carried out only once or only at the end point of the project or phase
Project manager responsibilities
Need to review the project management plan to ensure that all project work has been completed and project objectives have been achieved
Involve all appropriate stakeholders in closing the project or phase
If a project is terminated prematurely before completion, closing the project or phase process will also require developing procedures to investigate and document the reasons for the premature termination.
Activity
1. Actions and activities necessary to achieve the completion or exit criteria of a phase or project (completion of phase or project work)
2. Activities necessary to close a project contractual agreement or a project phase contractual agreement (closing the contract)
3. Activities that must be carried out to complete the work of collecting project or phase records, auditing project success or failure, managing knowledge sharing and transfer, summarizing lessons learned, archiving project information for future use by the organization (collecting project records, reviewing projects, summarizing lessons learned, archiving) project information)
4. Actions and activities that must be carried out to hand over the project's products, services or results to the next phase, or to production and/or operations (preparation for the next phase of the project (production, operations))
5. Collect suggestions for improving or updating organizational policies and procedures and send them to the appropriate organizational units (Collect Organizational Improvement Suggestions)
6. Measure stakeholder satisfaction (ask stakeholders how satisfied they are with the project and whether the project can be ended)
