A hands-on guide for creating a winning engineering project
Engineering Project Management is a practical, step-by-step guide
to project management for engineers. The author - a successful,
long-time practicing engineering project manager - describes the
techniques and strategies for creating a successful engineering
project. The book introduces engineering projects and their
management, and then proceeds stage-by-stage through the
engineering life-cycle project, from requirements, implementation,
to phase-out. The book offers information for understanding the
needs of the end user of a product and other stakeholders
associated with a project, and is full of techniques based on real,
hands-on management of engineering projects. The book starts by
explaining how we perform the actual engineering on projects; the
techniques for project management contained in the rest of the book
use those engineering methods to create superior management
techniques. Every topic - from developing a work-breakdown
structure and an effective project plan, to creating credible
predictions for schedules and costs, through monitoring the
progress of your engineering project - is infused with actual
engineering techniques, thereby vastly increasing the effectivity
and credibility of those management techniques. The book also
teaches you how to draw the right conclusions from numeric data and
calculations, avoiding the mistakes that often cause managers to
make incorrect decisions. The book also provides valuable insight
about what the author calls the social aspects of engineering
project management: aligning and motivating people, interacting
successfully with your stakeholders, and many other important
people-oriented topics. The book ends with a section on ethics in
engineering. This important book: Offers a hands-on guide for
developing and implementing a project management plan Includes
background information, strategies, and techniques on project
management designed for engineers Takes an easy-to-understand,
step-by-step approach to project management Contains ideas for
launching a project, managing large amount of software, and tips
for ending a project Structured to support both undergraduate and
graduate courses in engineering project management, Engineering
Project Management is an essential guide for managing a successful
project from the idea phase to the completion of the project.
