    Statistics For Effective Project Management

    Uploaded by

    Udaya Shalika
    The document discusses key concepts for project management including baselines, targets, and statistics. It provides the following key points: - Baselines establish conditions prior to a project and allow assessment of progress. Targets set expected levels of change and provide metrics to track progress. - Statistics like mean, standard deviation, and control charts help understand process variation and identify special causes for improvement or intervention. - Experimental design identifies factors that influence outcomes and their interactions to determine most significant drivers of results. - Statistical process control uses tools like histograms, check sheets, and control charts to monitor ongoing processes, detect issues early, and ensure stability and quality.

    STATISTICS FOR EFFECTIVE

    PROJECT MANAGEMENT
    WHY PROJECTS GET FAILED
    WHAT ARE BASELINES?
     Baselines provide context for the setting of targets and
    capture the situation before a development intervention
    begins, or at the beginning of a time period that will be
    monitored and assessed.
     Baselines describe the conditions prior to programming
    efforts. The present situation!
     Essential to make credible and meaningful assessments on
    progress towards outcomes
    WHAT ARE TARGETS
     Targets set the level for the magnitude of change
    expected by the end of a predetermined time period.
    They reflect what organizations commit themselves to
    achieve by the end of some duration of time.

     Targets provide tangible and meaningful points of


    discussion with beneficiaries, stakeholders, and partners,
    and allow us to add further specificity to the outcomes
    from the results logic.
    BASELINES AND TARGETS
    SUMMARY
     A baseline is the value of the indicator before the
    implementation of the project starts
     Targets orients stakeholders to the tasks to be
    accomplished
     Targets help establish clear expectations
     Targets serve as the guideposts for monitoring whether
    progress is being made
     Targets promote transparency

     Response:
     Mfg: Yield of a Process
     Service: Customer Satisfaction
     Controlled Factors: set to predefined levels for DOE
     Mfg: Kiln Temp., Fill Pressure, Material Moisture
     Service: Process Design, Follow-up
     Uncontrollable Factors: factors that cannot be
    controlled in actual operations, but may be controlled
    during experimentation.
    Mfg: Humidity, air pollution
    Service: Arrival rate, efficiency
    Implications of Interaction
     We may think a factor is unimportant if we don’t vary
    other factors at the same time.
     We may improve the process, but it only works if other
    factors remain constant.
     We may be able to reduce the effect of a factor by
    minimizing variation of another
