The Wiley Guide to Project Technology, Supply Chain, and Procurement Management / The Wiley Guides to Project Management (ePub)

A complete guide to managing technical issues and procuring
third-party resources

The Wiley Guides to the Management of Projects address critical,
need-to-know information that will help professionals successfully
manage projects in most businesses and help students learn the best
practices of the industry. They contain not only well-known and
widely used basic project management practices but also the newest
and most cutting-edge concepts in the broader theory and practice
of managing projects.

This fourth volume in the series offers expert guidance on the
supply chain and delivery cycle of the project, as well as the
technology management issues that are involved such as modeling,
design, and verification. Technology within the context of the
management of projects involves not so much actually doing the
"technical" elements of the project as managing the processes and
practices by which projects are transformed from concepts into
actual entities-and doing this effectively within the time, cost,
strategic, and other constraints on the project. The contributors
to this volume, among the most recognized international leaders in
the field, guide you through the key life-cycle issues that define
the project, ensure its viability, manage requirements, and track
changes-highlighting the key steps along the way in transforming
and realizing the technical definition of the project.
