The objective of Project management is the systematic management ofchanges/ deviations to achieve objectives in the optimum levels ofproductivity ensuring the desired quality in a high risk and uncertainenvironment.Project Quality Management

It is a mandatory prerequisite to recognize and accept the need to integratequality management with the three key constraints.


14/17

Be vigilant of managing deviations/changes to prevent t drifting towardsfirefighting, than managing. The need to recognize quality in respect of allactivates and processes leading to the production of the deliverable is not aconvenient option but a mandatory prerequisite for successful projectmanagement.

The main problem in Project Management arises from change of scope.The challenge of the project management is to manage such change interms of constraints and the snowballing effect. .


15/17

The term Quality, should not be narrowly construed to mean the qualitystatus of the deliverable. It should encompass the total outcomes of theproject life cycle and processes. Quality Management is a reiterative processrunning through and across the project life cycle.

Responsibility of quality assurance should not be left to the contractor. TheConsultant should be made contractually responsible for administering g the

quality assurance plan.

Project management should establish a dedicated unit to evaluate and monitorConsultants performance than being obsessed with chasing the Contractor.


16/17

The Project Management, as much as possible, should guard againstproliferation of the workload at the instance of the funding agency.

Project Management, or otherwise, in the final analysis, management means

problem solving and decision making.Therefore, an effective manager should be prepared to accept the abovechallenges.
