The most efficient way to plan and manage projects in the system is by following the Dynamic Planning Methodology.
To achieve greater efficiency, projects should be:
managed dynamically
coordinated centrally
Тip: Don't departmentalize projects – but involve different departments to create a product – and manage them centrally with one project manager (PM). Managers that work with the dynamic planning method are 4 to 5 times more efficient and respectively could manage 4 to 5 times higher number of projects simultaneously.
Dynamic project management
The dynamic project management concept revolves around the innovative idea of dynamically planning and executing activities and tasks based on their “actionability” status, not on their target deadlines.
When you plan dynamically, your best friends are:
The system's dynamic project management approach changes the daily routine of a project manager. Instead of visiting 100 projects to find out your daily priorities, PMs have centralized access to a ready-to-go action plan telling them what should be done "Today", "Tomorrow", and so on. What’s more, everything inside is immediately actionable.
Furthermore, project management is facilitated by the system's dependencies algorithm which – if correctly set – automates the planning process of the next actionable project steps.
Central project coordination
In most companies, projects are lists of activities and tasks. Respectively projects belong to different departments – Design projects, Production projects, Sales projects, etc. Many software developers share this point of view, but isn’t it better to gather all processes (pertinent to one final result) in a single project and manage them centrally by using different departments whenever needed?
Project management with the system does exactly that. It resolves a major problem found in many organizations – the problem of shared accountability.
A project has just one project coordinator (also called a project manager), responsible for following activities’ target deadlines. In doing so, all information is kept in one place and there is one person to consider and analyze all project aspects. This working model eliminates conflicts stemming from shared accountability issues. Moreover, it increases employee efficiency as people concentrate on doing their best work, instead of losing time in clarifications and their own subjective prioritization.
Central project management allows a small number of PMs to coordinate in real-time a large number of projects in complex organizations.
