Book Synopsis Value Management Practice by : Michel Thiry
Download or read book Value Management Practice written by Michel Thiry and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project managers will enjoy learning more about "value" and "customer" in this breakthrough book. Putting value and customer needs at the center of a project management effort is a key point in the book, and Thiry's well-written Value Management Practice clearly explains how to make it happen. Thiry begins with a short history of value management. During World War II, shortages of critical resources, such as steel and aluminum, forced manufacturers to use available, seemingly inferior, materials and alternate designs. Creativity became key! When the inexpensive products performed better than the originals, value engineering was born. Its goal was to produce top-quality products at reduced cost. By century's end, the field had broadened to become value management, with customer satisfaction as the primary determinant of product quality. This valuable book outlines the scope of practice from which you can learn the principles, concepts, tools, and techniques to create value-added project management. Value integration in project management will enhance your communications and team spirit, increase your knowledge of the project to facilitate decision-making, lead to optimum overall performance with fewer resources, and generally improve your projects and your organization.

Download or read book Value Management of Construction Projects written by John Kelly and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-11-17 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Value Management is a philosophy, set of principles and a structured management methodology for improving organisational decision-making and value-for-money. The second edition builds on the success of the first edition by extending the integrated value philosophy, methodology and tool kit to describe the application of Value Management to the areas of service delivery, asset management, and, Programmes, in addition to Projects, products and processes. Value Management is a well-established methodology in the international construction industry, and in the UK has been endorsed as good practice in a range of government sponsored reports. In this book the authors have addressed the practical opportunities and difficulties of Value Management by synthesising the background, international developments, benchmarking and their own extensive consultancy and action research experience in Value Management to provide a comprehensive package of theory and practice. The second edition retains the structure of the first edition, covering methods and practices, frameworks of value and the future of value management. It has been thoroughly updated, and a number of new chapters added to encapsulate further extensions to current theory and practice. In particular, the new edition responds to: A range of recent UK industry and government publications; and most notably BS EN 16271:2012 - Value management: Functional expression of the need and functional performance specification; the imminent update of BS EN 12973:2000 Value Management; BS EN 1325 Value Management -- Vocabulary, Terms and definitions; the changes to "Value for Europe" governing the training and certification of Value Management in European Union countries; the UK Government’s Management of Value (MoV) initiative, together with other leading reports, international guidance and standards on Value Management.

An Appendix includes an extensive set of tools and techniques of use in Value Management practice. Construction clients, including those in both the public and private sectors, and professionals such as construction cost consultants, quantity surveyors, architects, asset managers, construction engineers, and construction managers will all find Value Management of Construction Projects to be essential reading.

Book Synopsis The Standard for Earned Value Management by : Project Management Institute Project Management Institute
Download or read book The Standard for Earned Value Management written by Project Management Institute Project Management Institute and published by Project Management Institute. This book was released on 2020-04-13 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earned value management (EVM) is a management methodology for integrating scope, schedule, and resources; objectively measuring project performance and progress; and forecasting project outcome. It is considered by many to be one of the most effective performance measurement and feedback tools for managing projects. The Standard for Earned Value Management builds on the concepts for EVM described in the Practice Standard for Earned Value Management and includes enhanced project delivery information, by integrating concepts and practices from the PMBOK® Guide – Sixth Edition and The Agile Practice Guide. A central theme in this standard is the recognition that the definition for value in EVM has expanded. While the term retains its traditional definition in terms of project cost, it embraces current practice by including the concept of earned schedule. This standard also integrates hybrid methodologies that blend together historical EVM concepts with the needs of the agile practitioner, all with an eye towards aiding the project team in enhancing overall project delivery. This standard is a useful tool for experienced project management practitioners who are seeking to expand and update their knowledge of the field as well as less experienced practitioners who want to learn other approaches for managing project performance. It provides insight and detailed explanations of the basic elements and processes of EVM, and demonstrates how to scale EVM to fit varying project sizes and situations. This standard includes graphical examples and detailed explanations that will enable the reader to establish and implement EVM on projects in almost any environment and of almost every size. When used together with good project management principles, EVM methodology will provide a greater return on any project and results that will directly benefit your organization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meant to complement rather than compete with the existing books on the subject, this book deals with the project performance and control phases of the project life cycle to present a detailed investigation of the project’s time performance measurement methods and risk analysis techniques in order to evaluate existing and newly developed methods in terms of their abilities to improve the corrective actions decision-making process during project tracking. As readers apply what is learned from the book, EVM practices will become even more effective in project management and cost engineering. Individual chapters look at simulation studies in forecast accuracy; schedule adherence; time sensitivity; activity sensitivity; and using top-down or bottom-up project tracking. Vanhoucke also offers an actual real-life case study, a tutorial on the use of ProTrack software (newly developed based on his research) in EVM, and conclusions on the relative effectiveness for each technique presented.
