The important criteria of modern management System
In Modern project management system ‘PRINCE AND
SSADM’ is a part of Information system which helps management ‘Information
technology’ and for what they actually are - authoritative and precious tools,
but not has any magical aspects. When applied solicitously, these tools can
bring important benefits for individuals, organisations, and customers as a
tentative flow. When misinterpreted, they can fritter away remarkable amounts
of time, effort, and money’.
The UK, a developed country that is
economically and technologically advanced, designed PRINCE AND SSADM, to meet
their own requirements. It cannot be expected that these structured
methodologies would equally suit the resource scarce developing countries. But
the above discussions surmise that there is potential scope and rationale for
applying PRINCE AND SSADM that would facilitate the developing countries for
better project management and system development. But again, these
methodologies should not be considered as the “solutions”, rather these frameworks should be used thoughtfully,
tailored to manage projects efficiently and to develop effective information
systems to cope with the challenge of change.
The PRINCE
model for projects is based on two main principles:
n The project is a joint responsibility between
users, the developers and the
organisation for whose benefit the end-product is being developed
n In order for projects to succeed, a special
structure is demanded to manage the project throughout its life - from
conception through build to handover.
This structure is distinct from normal line management.
Using
these principles, the model defines three levels of activity:
n Overall project management and major decision
making
n Day-to-day management
n Production of end-products
These three levels of activity are assigned
respectively to the Project Board, to the Project and Stage Managers, and to
the Technical Teams.
In PRINCE, an approach to planning based on
products rather than activities and the use of this approach for the benefits.
It also emphasizes that projects needs to define the ‘shape’ or manageable
phases of a project to promote sound business control. Stages are characterized
by the production of specific products.
