2PROJECT MANAGEMENT METHODOLOGY
Introduction:
Project management methodologies are different for different kinds of projects. The
preference for a particular type of project hinge on the specific features of the plan and to
which sector it is applied. Project management methodology is often used in organizations or
in projects of different sectors to organize the projects in times, to provide tools in order to
estimate the costs that are actually required for the project and to improve the cost benefit
analysis of the resources that are used within a project (Kerzner & Kerzner, 2017).
Application of a suitable project management methodology helps in developing the team
skills and helps in achieving greater customer satisfaction through successful delivery of the
project. Project management methodology can be applied in various sectors like for this
report reflection has been made based on the application of project management methodology
at the defense sector. The company of Royal Defense is a defense sector company that is
founded in the year 2017. The following report discusses about the request of the project
organization methodology at this sector.
Project management policies:
Project administration methodologies are well-defined as a set of rubrics and
processes that are utilised within projects to manage the projects effectively. Implementing a
suitable project management methodology helps in achieving enhanced communication and
working process in the sectors where they are applied (Joslin & Müller, 2015). There are
diverse types of project running methodologies including Waterfall project management
procedure, Agile project management policy, Scrum and mix methodology.
Among all these methodologies the company of Royal Defense implemented the
Scrum project management method in order to improve its business sector and tools and
software that are used in the defense sector.

Scrum project management methodology:
The Scrum project supervision is a type of project management methodology that
helps in managing the software and its deliver under a broader platform of agile project
management. It helps in providing a light weight project management framework that
embraces incremental and iterative practices within organisations to deliver working software
efficiently and more frequently.
Process of Scrum Methodology:
The SCRUM methodology includes various stages of process which can be
memorized by the 3-305 framework which represents 3 roles, 3 artifacts and 5 events. The 3
roles that are considered under Scrum process includes PO, Scrum master and expansion
team while the 3 artifacts include, sprint backlog, product backlog and product augmentation
(Špundak, 2014). The 5 events of scrum include- Sprint, sprint retrospective, planning the
sprint or time and finally daily scrum.
Knowledge areas of Scrum methodology:
For every project management methodology there exists a set of knowledge areas.
The knowledge areas of SCRUM include-
1. Integration management

Application of SCRUM at Royal Defence:
In defense sector, special focus is made on providing more upgraded and efficient
software that helps in combating enemies effectively (Mazur et al., 2014). Applying the
Scrum project management methodology in the defense sector of Royal Defense,
improvements are made in areas of the development cost of the software that are used
keeping major focus on the project scope and most importantly increased customers
satisfaction.
Conclusion:
This it can be determined from the report that project administration policy plays a
vigorous role in every sector and especially in defense sectors as more updated software are
needed in this field. So, it is significant for project manager who are under the authority of
developing efficient software should make use of effective project methodologies like that of
SCRUM.
