Niwot Ridge Resources | The successful management of project, programs, and portfolios requires processes and tools executed by trained and competent people. This site provides some of the resources that support this effort. |
| A sampling of the resources is below. This selection is driven by my current business interest, but more resources are available on the pages to the left. |
Latest "Happenings" | There is a discussion about the principles and practices of "Adaptive-Agile" Project management. A Declaration of Independence has been posted on the Agile Project Management forum. As a project and program manager I was encouraged by this effort, but a couple of the Six Core Values did not resonate with me. I assembled my trusty "check list" of project management processes - emphasis process not methodologies into a single place. In anticipation of the APM Core Values taking hold, I'm looking for places in our current practices to apply them. | | The beginnings of an extended essay on Project Management as a Systems Engineering process | | New Project Management resources for IMP/IMS | | Extreme Programming and Scrum "pictures on a single page" provide a quick introduction to these agile development methods. | | My interest in Steve Devaux's Total Project Management book has led me deep into "Real Options" theory for use in software project decision making. Here's a collection of papers on the subject. This topic is the "next big thing" in portfolio management and decision making in the presence of uncertainty. | | An essay on a recent ASAPM paper on unplanned external events disrupted projects describes how to think about this problem in a more consistent manner | | "Using Balanced Scorecard to Development a Project Based IT Organization," Balanced Scorecard Symposium, October 28,29, and 30, San Francisco. | | "Managing XP Project with Earned Value," is a paper presented at the Agile Development Conference, Salt Lake City Utah, June 25 2003. | | Agile Project Management discussion resources. This is a set of resources for moving forward on the discussion "are traditional waterfall process appropriate for emerging software development project." |
