PMBOK® Guide 6th Ed Processes
Understanding the PMO Guide
The PMO Guide is a lengthy document of around six to seven hundred pages and can be
difficult to understand. On the other hand, the Peermark Guide is more of a reference guide.
In order to comprehend the PMO guide better, it is recommended to read part two of the
guide. Every project begins with what is called the initiating process, which is similar to a
birth certificate that identifies and recognizes the project. It is crucial to learn more about the
PMI Talent Triangle and discuss the competences of the project manager.
The PMI Talent Triangle
The third chapter of the PMO guide talks about the project manager and the PMI talents. It
emphasizes the role of the project management in the PMI Talent Triangle. The fourth
chapter is about the standard ANSI of project management.
Integration Management
The integration management is an essential component of any project. It ensures that
everything is balanced to produce the benefits of the project plan. The initiation is a vital
point, and it is recommended to read the PMO guide from page one to the end. The scope
management is the process that plans how you will manage the scope of your project. The
first thing you need to work on is the area of scope. You then collect the requirements and
create the work breakdown structure (WBS).
Remember that the WBS looks like an old chart that breaks down the project into
different areas.
The scope statement defines how you want the project to be at the end.
The WBS is an essential component of integration management and acts as glue to
avoid scope overrule, risk overrule, and cost overrule.
Scope Management
The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is a tool to manage the scope of a project. Once you
know what you want to do and how much time you plan to spend, you can create a schedule
and start working on it. The process is fluid and not rigid, meaning that you may need to
revisit and revise your plan several times to ensure that you have included all the necessary
activities. The most important thing is to understand which activities you need, what
resources you require, and what you need to do. To do this effectively, you need to break
down the project into smaller, more manageable pieces of work.
Planning Process
After creating a schedule, you can develop your budget and plan for quality management.
These three tasks are part of the planning process related to scope. Then, you can move on to
the fourth task, which is introducing a new knowledge area called resource management.
