Analysis of project management reports of 49 system integration projects

Introduction: A higher level of specialization in various disciplines and technologies typical for the participants of modern investment and construction (development) projects creates the need for the advanced project management models. Decision support systems and tools for communication and organization of joint activities are the mandatory components for the efficient project management. Purpose-designed information systems allow to computerize such project management function as scheduling. However, the optimum decision is still found on the basis of personal assessment by decision makers. At the same time, as competition in the construction industry increases, the need for decision support systems to optimize investment and construction activities in the environment of multi-objective optimization becomes evident. Methods: The findings of DSS development projects in the construction industry have been used. The studies have been based on system integration approach to engineering, method of successive concession and the procedure for a search of the satisfactory values meeting STEM criteria under given weights. Results: Principles of development and functioning, architecture and organization and process aspects of DSS for scheduling under multi-objective optimization. Discussion: Integrated DSS capable for multi-objective optimization of the schedules has been proposed.

This article detailed introduces the system integration project management present situation, analyzes the system integration project initial stage, executing stage and completion stage of each phase of the project management content. And the problems existing in the process of system integration project management are analyzed. And these problems include project scope management. Project team management is not perfect and project risk management is not science, etc. Based on the relevant theory of the system integration project management at the same time, it analyzes the cause of system integration project management problems, and puts forward the corresponding improvement countermeasures. Finally based on the theory of project management nine knowledge areas, according to the basic process of project management: start, planning, executing, controlling and closing to discuss a specific system integration project. The concrete covers the scope of the project management, human resource management and risk management, and other areas of the project management body of knowledge.

Project Management Software

It has been more than 60 years from people using computer technology in project management. The hardware and software technology have been developed during these 60 years. The development have promoted the information industry progress, and also changed the project management approach. But now, the traditional project management software cannot satisfy the modern management for their limitation. System integration and network based system will be the tendency that the project management software is developing in future.
