Integrated Project Management (IPM)

Slide 3

AGibson

DST's project process is tailoredby each quality procedure which indicates the standard processes for a given situation.  The process should be followed "as is".

Organization process assets that a PM uses to plan a project, such as AAAP, are the PMP Instructions which helps develop the PMP to plan the contact. 

 For example, section 2.2 of the PMP provides the effort, task and cost estimates to establish the contract. 

Project plans are integrated into other project plans by references to different departments in our QP's.  

For examples in various section in the PMP other QP procedures are referenced -section 1.5 talks about acquisition resources (QP13), Section 2.5 Staffing (QP 14)  2.7 talks about Program Measures which is QP8, 2.7 Risk Management (QP 19)and 2.4-2.12

I manage AAAP by using the PMP . As mentioned before the PMP integrates various QPs to manage the the project.  For example. -- QP 10 -Business Solution - tracks and mangages contract to ensure obligations are fullfilled and met. We also have montly status meetings to discuss the progress of the contract.  We integrated

QP 1 Document control to manage the changes and updated to the PMP,

QP- 5 - Customer Feeback Procedure - show how we measure the success of DST's interaction with customers.

QP 12 - Control of nonconforming product;

QP 16 Corrective Action Request.

QP 10 using Business Solutions On Board Checklist - shows the various stakeholders are involved and montly status meetings to track performance.

QP 14  - Staffing which manages internal and external qualified candiates.

Project data that improves our support process in QP10- specifically the  Lessons Learned Review & customer surveys.

Typically after the first year and fouth year of the contract, the PM and all applicable DST depts will participate in a Lesson learned review during which each department  will identify and discuss AAAP SWOTS on the contact.  These are noted on the program schedule and will be used to improve DST processes and procedures. 

S= Strong Team/Highly Skilled; W=Work Environment/Staffing; O=potential growth; T=Defense Budget Cuts

Any improvement to the proess would be updated through QP 1 Docoument control.

PM measures from our monthly status report.

Customer Feedback - QP5

External Stakeholders are managed by their subcontracts.

QP 10.6

Internal Stakeholders are managed through the Issue tracking log where program issssues ae identified discussed nd tracked to closure (QP 10.5.4)

Staffing is a critical dependcies on AAAP project. They are managed through Recruiting and Sources Form request (QP 14) which dictates the requirements for the candiate before they are hired.  HCM Recruiting and Sourcing Report tracks and show when the Request is filled.

We also manage through our interactions with the customer 

Internally -- Business Solultion On-Board Checklist

Externally - Subcontract via their subk agreements.

We maintain the integrated teams through our meeting weekly and our  Issue tracking log
