Project Planning a Step by Step Guide

Project Planning is part of project management, which relates to the use of schedules such as Gantt charts to plan and subsequently report progress within the project environment. The value of a project plan in saving time, money and many problems.

This article teach the steps for a good project planning that you can use for future projects

The first thing you must do is create a project plan and follow the steps

Step 1 Project Goals

As a first step it is important to identify the stakeholders in your project. It is not always easy to identify the stakeholders of a project, particularly those impacted indirectly. Examples of stakeholders are:

The project sponsor

The customer who receives the deliverables

The users of the project outputs

The project manager and project team

Step 2 Project Deliverables

Using the goals you have defined in step 1, create a list of things the project needs to deliver in order to meet those goals. Specify when and how each item must be delivered.

Step 3 Project Schedule

Create a list of tasks that need to be carried out for each deliverable identified in step 2. For each task identify the following:

The amount of effort (hours or days) required to complete the task

The resource who will carryout the task

Once you have established the amount of effort for each task, you can workout the effort required for each deliverable and an accurate delivery date. Update your deliverables section with the more accurate delivery dates.

Step 4 Supponting Plan

This section deals with plans you should create as part of the planning process. These can be included directly in the plan.

Engineering lessons for kids

It’s been 12 years since the Virginia Department of Education established a children’s engineering program for kindergarten through fifth grade. The program identifies technology-based experiences that enhance the content of selected courses in mathematics, science, and history. Activities range from designing a family map based on mathematical facts and solar cooking (first grade) to loading a supply truck and building bridges (fifth grade). Teachers discuss objectives and preparation for the program each year at an annual convention devoted to the cause.

Universities are taking the next age range under their wings in the interest of instilling engineering principles and applications. Rochester Institute of Technology enlisted a multidisciplinary senior design engineering team to design, build, and test a series of hands-on activities intended to increase awareness of and interest in engineering as a field of study. Their activities resulted in five “traveling engineering activity kits” (TEAK) centered on a theme of how engineering concepts are related to energy and the environment.

Opinions about Engineering

Well, I want to know which are the opinions about engineering, so I ask my friends and they told me:

Jesus: he thinks that Industrial engineering is one of the earliest fields in which you can utilize computers in research, education, and practice. He said that you need more practice, experience, and knowledge to become into a good engineering. His future plans are work in a company, study English in the cevaz and go to London to practice. And finally He recommended engineering as a career because “this career is very important for the improvement of the Community and the world because this help to create enterprises, buildings, hospital, technology and others"

Ricardo: he thinks that Engineering is the art of creation and Innovation, applying methods, processes, technology and ingenuity for a best quality of life. He told me that to become an engineer it’s very important to know very well the discipline of acquiring and applying scientific and technical knowledge to the design, analysis, and the construction of works for practical purposes. It’s also very important to have a good knowledge about mathematics. He wants on the future to work in his father company and becomes into an important industrial engineering
