Description

Dynamic Project Management explains how to complete projects on time and within budget. The techniques given here will help managers and engineers realistically plan and execute research and development efforts by focusing on essential aspects of successful project management. The book addresses the solution of on-the-job problems, explains use of the probabilistic program evaluation and review technique, and how to measure a project's earned value. It also contains illuminating case studies based on actual military and consumer-oriented, high-tech engineering projects, and covers proposal writing, scheduling methods, allocating resources, and leadership and management. The volume will be of interest to managers, engineers and business and engineering students.
