Problem: How do we translate Lessons learned into concrete actions to improve processes and projects (best practices)?
Approach:
Take lessons learned and modify Best Practices and Standards by Project Type
(Insert Diagram) Lessons Lessns Learned - > Best Practices -> Project Standards by project type
Project Standards
- CPMM
- SOW
- WBS
- ENV
- EquipComm
- Communications Plan
- QA Standards
- Development Standards
- Other Standards Plan
Proj
...
Types:
- Small Projects
- Upgrades
- Large Projects
- Custom Development
- Vendor Product Implementations
CPMM
Project Templates by project type
Project questionaire/checklist by type
Project Mgmt SIG
Lessons Learned should include all aspects of projects
Anaylsys process
Recognized that standards and best practices can be either public or private
Lessons Learned should include all aspects of projects
- Analysis processes
- Development processes
- QA Processes
- Implementation processes
Process:
Best Practices
- Form Working group to collect best practices and create a first draft in confluence. We recommend the Project management SIG to be this working group.
- Best practices should include any project related templates. Practices and templates should be categorized by project type when applicable.
- PM SIG reviews LLs periodically
- PM SIG agrees on best practices changes
- Implement changes
Mentoring program:
Project Catalog - List of who did what project by project type and date.
- Encourage PMs to conduct a knowledge transfer session, when beginning a project, with a PM that has done a similar project recently.
Recommended next steps
- Form PM Sig and make the LL process part of its charter
- Collect Best Practices
- Create Project Templates by project type
- Create Project questionaire/checklist by type
