A Project Integrated Management System

Obiettivo

The PIMS project aimed to develop an integrated project management support system to be used as a consultant or as training system. The prototype management consultant and management instructor will be evaluated through field trials.
This project was associated with project 938, IMPW.
The project aimed to develop an integrated project management support system to be used as a consultant or as a training system. A theoretical approach developed the concept of a storyboard as a suitable vehicle for representing the general activity of project management. The representation of project management knowledge in a more formal way was also investigated. Important insights were gained from a series of structured interview sessions with individual project managers from the three industrial partners of the consortium. A tools survey identified and appraised many commercial packages aimed at project management. The first complete prototype emphasised a truly integrated toolset covering all phases and tasks of project management.

The first complete prototype (PIMS*1) was successfully demonstrated in February 1988. This prototype emphasised a truly integrated toolset covering all phases and tasks of project management.
Exploitation
The results are being used by CAP-Sogeti and PACTEL.
There has also been an exchange of results with the Integrated Product Management Workbench (project 938, IMPW) and a transfer to the EUREKA ESF.
This project will have immediate impact on project management in the software industry when the resulting prototype is industrialised and marketed. The potential for exploitation appears very promising once this system has been integrated within a software factory in the 1990s.
