Comparing PMI Processes Support in MS Project and Sciforma Tools

This assignment examines the support for the 49 processes outlined by PMI (Project Management Institute) and documented in the PMBOK Guide 6th Edition within the project management tools MS Project and Sciforma. The student created a table comparing the capabilities of these two tools in relation to each of the 49 PMI processes, noting whether each process is supported by each tool and providing brief explanations when a process is not supported. The assignment highlights the functionalities of the tools and their applicability within the project management lifecycle, focusing on project planning, execution, and closing. The assignment references the project management information system (PMIS) and its role in organizing project information for successful project execution. The student's analysis provides a clear understanding of how these tools align with PMI's best practices in project management.

The PMIS that is the project management information system, is a comprehensible
organization of all the information that are required for any organization for executing the
proposed projects successfully (Tonchia, 2018). This PMIS is mainly one or more than one
applications of software also the methodical procedures to gather and use the information of
this proposed project (Rosenberger & Tick, 2018). All these electronic systems are helped for
planning, implementing also closing the goals of the project management. These systems of
PMIS are differed in the scope, design also the features that are depended upon the
requirements that are operational of the organization (Čabarkapa & Obradović, 2019).
The project management is the complex also the field of interdisciplinary.
Successfully completing the project, it is needed to complete this on the given time, budget
also the meeting the proposed level of the quality (Rosenberger & Tick, 2018). There are 49
processes are considered by PMI also documented in the PMBOK Guide 6th Edition which
are the best practices in the project management.
The tools of the project management are assisted the individual or the project team for
effectively organizing the work also managing the tasks and the project. These tools are
created to be customizable so that these can be fitted all needs of the project.
There are many tools are present from these, the two specific and famous tools named MS
Project and the Sciforma are selected. In this project, it is identified that from the 49
processes, which processes are supported by these two tools and which are not (Čabarkapa &
Obradović, 2019).

PROCESS MS PROJECT SCIFORMA
Process 1 No, for charter it needs to
define project goal,
objectives and scope in
details. MS Project does not
provide this option for
entering these information
(Rosenberger & Tick, 2018).
Therefore, MS Project is not
applicable for the process.
