Planning is of major importance to a project because the project involves doing something which has not been done before. ? The processes above are subject to to frequent iterations prior to peting the plan. For example, if the initial pletion date is unacceptable, project resources, cost, or even scope may need to be redefined. In addition, planning is not an exact sciencetwo different teams could generate very different plans for the same project. Dec. 2023 Wanjun JIANG GSM PKU ? Scope planning: developing a written scope statement as the basis for future project decisions ? Scope definition: subdividing the major project deliverables into smaller, or manageable ponents ? Activity definition: identifying the specific activities that must be performed to produce the various project deliverables ? Activity sequencing: identifying and documenting interactivity dependencies ? Activity duration estimating: estimating the number of work periods which will be needed to plete individual activities ? Schedule development: analyzing activity sequences, activity durations, and resource requirements to create the project schedule. ? Resource planning: determining what resources (people, equipment, materials) and what quantities of each should be used to perform project activities. Dec. 2023 Wanjun JIANG GSM PKU ? Cost estimating: developing an approximation (estimate) of the costs resources needed to plete project activities. ? Cost budgeting: allocating the overall cost estimate to individual work items ? Project plan development: taking the results of other planning processes and putting them into a consistent, coherent document. ? Quality planning: identifying which quality standards are relevant to the project and determining how to satisfy them ? Organization planning: identifying, documenting, and assigning project roles, responsibilities, and reporting relationships ?

Communication planning: determining the information and munications needs of the stakeholders: who needs what information, when will they need it, and how will it be given to them. ? Risk identification: determining which risks are likely to affect the project and documenting the characteristics of each. ? Risk quantification: evaluating risks and risk interactions to assess the range of possible project outes ? Risk response development: defining enhancement steps for opportunities and responses to threats ? Procurement planning: determining what to procure and when ? Solicitation planning: documenting product requirements and identifying potential sources. Dec. 2023 Wanjun JIANG GSM PKU Executing processes ? ?

Project plan execution: carrying out the project plan by performing the activities included therein. ? Scope verification: formalizing acceptance of the project scope ? Quality assurance: evaluating overall project performance on the regular basis to provide confidence that the project will satisfy the relevant quality standard. ? Team development: developing individual and group skills to enhance project performance ? Information distribution: making needed information available to project stakeholders in timely manner ? Solicitation: obtaining quotations, bids, offers, or proposal as appropriate ? source selection: choosing from among potential sellers ? contract administration: managing the relationship with the seller Dec. 2023 Wanjun JIANG GSM PKU Controlling processes ? facilitating processes
