Synopsis

Increasing attention is being given to the importance of project planning and control in industry, commerce and elsewhere. It is clear that a professional approach to project management is essential if resources are to be deployed effectively and objectives achieved in a cost-effective way. Today, project management is helped by a growing range of computer-based facilities, including software designed for micros. This book, based on a detailed research report produced by the Slough College of Higher Education, describes current project management attitudes and practice, and makes recommendations for the future. An indication is given of available micro software packages for project planning and control, and relevant concepts and current activity in this field are profiled. Extensive appendices provide references, an approach letter, a questionnaire and software suppliers' addresses. Topics covered include: project manager experience; project profiles; software package usage; package choice and evaluation; and user knowledge and practice.
