SNEC-PMI Announcements

How does a busy project manager at mid-project quickly reframe the project’s parameters? By using the strategic reframe to correctly set boundaries for a detailed revision of scope, schedule, and cost. The strategic reframe is flexible. It works on projects as small as a two-week Agile iteration or as large as a two-year DOD contract.

This talk will enable the participant to solve the following problem:

Your client wants the project done on time with full scope and will pay for it. The project plan calls for 120 staff-months of work to be completed by 10 professionals working full-time for 12 months. At the end of 6 months, the original team has worked 65 staff-months and completed 54 staff-months of planned work. (Can you show that the additional staff you need for month 7 is 3.2 persons?)

A handy spreadsheet tool, REFRAME, will be made available to everyone who participates.
