PMD Pro
Project identification and design - ANS-the project teams define needs, explore opportunities,
analyze the project environment, and design alternatives for project design. The decisions made
during the Project Identification and Design Phase set the strategic and operational framework
within which the project will subsequently operate.
Project set up - ANS-the project is officially authorized and its overall parameters are defined
and communicated to the main project stakeholders. It is also during this phase that the project
team establishes the high-level project governance structure.
Project planning - ANS-the team develops a comprehensive and detailed implementation plan
that provides a model for all the work of the project. This plan is revisited throughout the life of
the project and updated (if necessary) to reflect the changing contexts of the project.
Project implementation - ANS-The day-to-day work of project implementation is to lead and
manage the application of the project implementation plan: Leading the team, dealing with
issues, managing the project team and creatively integrating the different elements of the project
plan.
project monitoring, evaluation and control - ANS-This phase extends through the entire life of
the project and continually measures the project's progress and identifies appropriate corrective
actions in situations where the project's performance deviates significantly from the plan
end of project transition - ANS-implementing all the transition activities that need to occur at the
end of a project, including (but not limited to) confirming the deliverables with beneficiaries,
collecting lessons learned, and completing the administrative, financial and contractual closure
activities.
PMD Pro Project Phase Model - ANS-Project identification and design; project set up; planning;
implementation; project monitoring, evaluation and control; end of project transition
Decision gates decide whether: - ANS-- the initial justification for the project is valid
- any major changes are required
- project investments need to be halted altogether
Project management disciplines - ANS-• Scope Management
• Time Management
• Project Resource Management
• Risk Management
• Project Justification Management
• Stakeholder Management
