Most of our small and medium software companies have a two hundred year project, the more independent of the project, the final result of the implementation of the project and pay more attention to the lack of standardized management, can judge, the majority of small and medium software enterprises in the project management or second stage urgent need to move to the third stage. The higher cost of the project at this stage of the enterprise, and progress is difficult to guarantee the quality, so only enhance project management capabilities, small and medium software enterprises can seek a certain market position in the fierce competition in the industry to grasp the good opportunity for development.
How to improve project management capabilities of small and medium project-oriented software companies?
For project-oriented enterprises focusing solely on project management systems, and still can not get promoted comprehensive ability. Because a single project management system can not solve all the problems, including customers, processes, projects, finance, document, employees, contracts, etc., hence the need for some management tools to achieve the overall synergies, improve the efficiency of project management. Typically, companies need the help of project management software to achieve this function. Currently on the market there are many project management software, such as the acclaimed CORNERSTONE .
So how can we improve the efficiency of project management, high-quality project delivery, we must understand these four points.
First, before the project, to think clearly in the end what to do
CORNERSTONE can help you before the project, [the module] mind mapping thinking minds to visualize combing through the WIKI.
When the project is set up, I think about what to do in the end this project. I think clearly the target user features and core requirements, which require technical support and drive, which manpower support, the urgency of the needs of the project on the basis of these think clearly on the project can begin.
Second, the fine distribution of tasks and dismantling
When you're doing mission planning, mission execution should ensure a fine enough granularity, that task must be clear, specific and enforceable. On this basis, the person in charge of the task and the related correspondence, and clearly the workload of each task and completion time.
In CORNERSTONE job creation, according to the different specific project, set a specific field, to be more accurate description of refinement and control tasks. Sub-task function can also help managers to task for further dismantling and distribution.
Third, the task priority arrangements
In order to better control the process of the project, so that the orderly completion of each task, the priority should be judged by the importance and urgency of the task. Arrangements on the matter in accordance with the priorities, allowing you to better control the progress of the project, so that everything goes according to plan.
And many have to undertake the task of the time, such as a function of the on-line product subject to "explore demand - version planning - program planning - program evaluation -UI design - development - testing - Post" and a series of processes, which tasks simultaneously conduct, which has the task order, should be a reasonable arrangement.
Fourth, after the project started, the control of progress
After the project started, promptly record the progress of the project to detect the state is to ensure the smooth progress of the project means necessary. At this time, the need to grasp the progress of the project, control the time a node for each task. In order to ensure the implementation of all aspects not go wrong, it should be based on the specific implementation, adjustment of mission objectives, resources, schedule and modify the plan.
