A Project Management Life Cycle for Managers

To successfully deliver projects from start to finish, you need to complete all of the steps in the Project Management Life Cycle. The first step in the project management life cycle is called initiation and in this phase, you define the business case, undertake a feasibility study and appoint the project team. Any suppliers are also appointed at this time and a phase review is completed. The next step in the project management life cycle is the planning phase, which involves creating detailed project, resource and quality plans to ensure you are always working towards the project goals set. In the Execution and Closure phases of the project management life cycle, you produce the deliverables and hand them over to the customer for acceptance.

Project Management Methodologies on the Web

Title Project Management Methodologies on the Web

Description

Keywords

In the future, we would like to release the MPMM Project Management Methodologies as a web platform.

How it would work is that user would download and install the methodology software on their corporate server, and their project managers and teams could use it to manage projects. The user can create their project management methodologies, add documentation and manage their templates all in one place. The challenge for us in doing this is protecting the intellectual property included within MPMM, as anyone would have access to the 1000+ content pages, templates and practical examples currently included. Without being able to protect the intellectual property, it’s difficult continuing with the web solution development. If you have ideas on how the MPMM Project Management Methodologies could be ported onto a web platform, while retaining the intellectual property rights to the content included, then let us know. We’d love to hear from you.

Project Methodology Multi-User version

I understand you have recently released a multi-user version of MPMM. Can you please tell me about it?

Yes that is correct. The multiuser edition of MPMM Professional allows any Professional edition user to share project management methodologies with licensed colleagues. It’s a free add on to the normal edition and any licensed user can request it. Simply install it on your shared corporate server, and you can create and share as many project management methodologies with your colleagues as you wish. The multi-user edition does not require any additional license purchases. You simply need a Professional edition license for each user of the system.

Method123 Project Management Templates

What is the difference between the Project Management Templates offered by your parent company Method123 Ltd, and the project management methodology offered at MPMM.com?
