I. Project Management and Project2000 Relationship
In project management knowledge systems, including nine knowledge areas (range management, time management, fees management, quality management, human resource management, communication management, risk management, procurement management, integrated management). However, from the project management assistance tool software Project2000, it contains the 5 core fields in the nine knowledge field, and the other four areas need to be done by other auxiliary tools or manual operations. The five major areas included are as follows: 1, range management
The first knowledge field of project management is "scope management", in the project range, including two layers: First, an item range; second, the product range. The scope of the project is the goal of our project, including software development, integration, training and project implementation. The product range is focusing on the scope of software, which can be understood as an important supplement to the scope of the project. Both have a certain association, but each has its own weight, only the two are added, and we constitute our full project range. However, in the Project2000 tool, the project range refers to the first one, and the output is the WBS decomposition. 2, time management
Time management also known as progress management, in Project2000, it provides basic functions such as construction estimation, work lap relationship, schedule, progress control. It is also possible to automatically calculate a critical path, which can be easily set up our milestone control point and enable dynamic tracking of the project. It also provides a variety of time management methods, Gantt charts, network diagrams, calendars, etc. It should be said that time management is the most powerful function in Project 2000. 3, fee management
In the cost management, the Project2000 uses the technology of "Since the bottom-up cost estimation", because it is estimated to rely on each WBS task, so that the cost estimate is more accurate. And it can also combine with Excel et al., Generate cost graphs and earning value trends. 4, human resources management
In human resource management, Project2000 provides human resources planning, human resources responsibility matrix, resource demand histogram, resource equilibrium, etc., it can help us do a good job in resource allocation, and conduct resources, cost and work. Statistics. 5, integrated management
The integration management of project management is to integrate management and coordination for the scope, time, fees, resources, etc. of the project. In the Project2000, it can automatically calculate and adjust according to the scope, time, and resources.
Second, the environment settings before using Project2000
Before planning, you need to set up the use environment of Project2000, which makes it possible to make our plan to make a time. The environment settings should be based on their own habits, and the other is based on the actual situation of the project. Here are several commonly used environmental settings. U First, set the item summary information, and enter the title, project manager and unit of the project in the summary information. Mainly the information displayed when it is easy to print.
Operation method: Select the menu file attribute summary information. u Set the calendar of the project, the default starts from Sunday, the Chinese habits are generally starting from Monday.
Operation method: Select the menu tool option calendar starting every week. u Set the task type, default is "fixed worker", the implication of fixed workers is 10 days when a task is assigned to one person, when an increase is increasing, the work period is automatically changed to 5 days. Our habitual habits should be when the person is increased, and the principal requirements of the original work will remain unchanged. So you need to choose to "fixed time".
Operation method: Select the menu tool option schedule default task type. u Set the WBS number, the default has no WBS number, in order to plan to read clearly, it is recommended to set the outline number as the WBS number.
Operation method: Select Menu Tools Option View Selected Display Outline Number. u Set working time, the default is based on the standard day, which is also on Saturday and Sunday. The Administrative Nature refers not only considering Sunday, Sunday, and considers China's traditional holidays (such as National Day, May 1st, etc.). We generally be based on the specific situation of the project, such as the comparison period of the project, the project team requires a Saturday, rest on Sunday, then set it to "non-default working hours" on Saturday. Operation method: Select Menu Tool Change Operation Time Select Objects Non-default working hours. u Set the pattern style, you can set your health according to your own habits, non-targeted tasks, progress bars, miletones for different styles and colors.
Operation method: Select the menu format bar chart style. Note: The suggestion environment setting can be set to a template so that you don't need to set up each project, improve planning efficiency.
