Hi. My name is Alex Bayes and I am studying for a computer degree in the UK.
For my final year Project I have decided to undertake the design and implementation of a Project Management system.
As part of the development of this system I am required to gain knowledge about the factors involved in Project Management.
If it would be possible for anybody to answer these questions, or make available your email so I can direct these questions to you then I would be most grateful.
Thanks,
Alex
Questions: -
1. What would you describe your main roles and responsibilities are, as a Project Manager?
2. As a Software Project Manager, what do you find most of your time is spent doing?
3. What do you understand to be the key principle in Project Management?
4. Do you feel there are any personal traits in a Project Manager that would aid the successful completion of a Project? (outgoing, good communicator etc.?)
5. What software package(s) do you currently use to aid the successful management of a Project?
6. If you could improve on the software you use in any way, what would you do?
7. The number of Project Management Offices (PMO) in the US & UK for managing Software products has increased by 54% in a single year. Do you think there is an actual increase in need for these PMO's, or is it a case of one PMO managing another?
8. As a Project Manager do you feel you need to have any technical knowledge of the product or service being developed by the Project? Would you be able to cope as well without it?
9. On a scale of 0 – 10 (10 always, 0 never) how many times would you say the Projects you manage/are invoved in: -
- Are on time
- Are on budget
- Fulfilled all requirements
- Experienced no problems
10. What do you feel are the main contributing factors to the failure of a project’s capability to stay on time, on budget and fulfil all requirements?
