PROJECT MANAGEMET1
Introduction and summary of outcomes
This assignment discusses regarding the learning outcomes as well as evidences that
have been discussed in the project portfolio. The assignment represents tat fact that SEBoK
describes regarding the terminologies, structure of SE, contents of project along with program
management. These factors have provided detailed knowledge regarding the systems
management. This assignment also discusses regarding numerous techniques which can be
utilized for managing portfolio and project, it further includes tools that are computer based,
creative problem solving, and tool for structural thinking. The purpose of enabling a
particular system, the interest of the systems had been discussed as well. These factors are
discussed in the assignment in detailed manner along with the evidences from where the data
had been derived.
Learning outcome 1
Summary
From this learning outcome we have attained knowledge regarding the way by which
a specific set of projects could be converted to a specific program. Besides this, the SEBoK
represents the terminologies, boundaries, structure of SE, contents of project as well as
program management. This had also provided knowledge regarding the implementation of
various complex projects and the ways by which procedures and processes of PPPM can be
applied. We had learnt a detailed difference among the plan of project management and
program management as well as how program manager and project manager can be
connected for the purpose of accomplishing outcomes of project.

Learning outcome 2
Summary
It could be learnt that the tools of systems thinking that could be used for the purpose
of managing any sort of project include dynamic thinking tool and brainstorming tool. It
could be learnt that confronting of risk, monitoring, planning along with some technical
aspects are some components of systems engineering work that are applicable in the
management of project. One more aspect that has been learnt include the fact that for manage
project application systems engineering has been considered as very important. Some
techniques of systems thinking that could be used for the purpose managing project and
portfolio include tools that are computer based, creative problem solving, and tool for
structural thinking. The tools as well as techniques tend to help the project manager in the
process of resolving numerous problems as well as risks.

Learning outcome 3
Summary
From this portfolio, we have learnt that a specific system could be characterized with the help
of numerous models such as integrated simulation of circuit, architecture models and software design,

3D computer aided model. After going through the notes provided in the second week, I have learnt
regarding the components that are present within a system in details. One more feature that could be
learnt includes the fact that for the purpose of enabling a specific system, the interest of these systems
must be characterized on the basis of operational environment. Some activities that are provided by
product system, system capability and enterprise system has also been learnt. The detailed description
of the risk management plan along with the ways by which strategies of risk management could help
in mitigating various challenges. Risk tolerance matrix could be used for the purpose of measuring if a
risk is acceptable or not.

Learning outcome 4
Summary
For the purpose of preventing overrunning costs well as over allocation of time along
with numerous resources every time of the applications are very important. The systems
approach could get the system of project management together for implementing a specific
project successful. The validation and verification of role system before the implementation
of any project has been described in the slides of lecture. Along with this, the percentage of
overlapping could be unwavering with the usage of process of engineering that is concurrent
in nature. It can also be learnt that along with the appropriate application of program
management as well as the phases of system engineering the efficiency of work can be
enhanced, this leads in improving the process of making decision by project managers.
