Project Management Methodologies for IoT in the Healthcare Sector

This project management assignment focuses on the implementation of IoT technology within the healthcare sector. It outlines the core components of project management, emphasizing the importance of planning, execution, and control to achieve specific goals within budget and time constraints. The assignment details essential project management practices, such as stakeholder understanding, risk response teams, and the development of leadership and technical competencies. It advocates for the Agile methodology, highlighting user involvement, iterative development, and integrated testing. The assignment also covers PMBOK knowledge areas including integration, scope, cost, time, and risk management, along with process groups like initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, and closure. Furthermore, it discusses project management maturity models and the PMI Code of Ethics, emphasizing trust, respect, fairness, and honesty in project execution.

Name of the Student
Name of the University

Project Management
 The practice of planning, execution, delivering and controlling of results
 Specific aims and objectives are set for meeting certain set of goals
 Success criteria is generally measured based on achievement of project
goals within a mentioned time and estimated budget
 People having sound knowledge of business and project practices must
be employed

Core Components of PM
 Defining an appropriate reason about the necessity of the project
 Capturing business requirements, specifying deliverables and
estimating timelines and resources required (Rosemann & vom Brocke,
2015)
 Development and implementation of a management plan for the project
 Management of issues, risks and changes required within a project
 Management of project budget and monitoring progress

PM Practices for Implementation of IoT in
Healthcare Project
There are certain practices that should be implemented by a project manager
in order to maintain the project. These are:
 Ensuring that every kind of stakeholder would understand the specified
requirements
 Creation of a team for responding to risks
 Formalizing and developing the roles for project management
 Development of leadership competencies along with technical
competencies

PM Practices for Implementation of IoT in
Healthcare Project
 Adoption of better standards for project scheduling
 Evaluation of high quality standards based on the project lifecycle
 Bringing in transparency within the project
 Efficient method of communication between the team and defining clear
roles to each member
 Regular check over the to-be designed system

Project Management Methodologies
 Agile methodology would be used for implementing IoT technology in
healthcare
 Active form of user involvement is necessary for quick development
 Focus over quick delivery over each phase of project
 Testing is integrated within each lifecycle of project
 Cooperative and collaborative approach between every stakeholder

PMBOK Knowledge Areas for the
Project
The certain knowledge areas that could be imp[lamented for the present project
are:
 Integration management
 Scope Management
 Cost Management
 Time Management
 Risk Management

Process Groups and Roles
The process groups forms the part of the knowledge area in a project. These are:
 Initiation of the project during which the vision is set for project initiation
 Planning during which the total scope of project is defined
 Execution of plan during which the prepared plan is implemented (Meredith,
Mantel Jr & Shafer, 2017)
 Monitoring over the executed project that is being designed
 Project Closure in which documentation is made for the entire project

Project Management Maturity Model
PMMM is defined as a tool for the assessment of capabilities of the IoT
implementation project. The certain levels that could be in relation to the project
are:
 Initial Process
 Structured Standards and Processes
 Maintaining standards of the Organization
 Management of metrics of measuring project progress
 Optimizing of improvement within the project management process

PMI’s Code of Ethics
The certain PMI Code of Ethics, which could be used for the present project are:
 Fostering of project excellence through trust, mutual respect, cooperation
and confidence
 Providing encouragement and value towards other’s views (Silvius &
Schipper, 2014)
 Bringing practice of fairness within work quality and during decision-making
 Demonstrating honesty at work at during maintaining communication
