Project Stage Objective Management

Our team recently delivered a successful two-week delivery to the customer. First, two weeks ago, we had an effective communication with the customer, and gained the most desired features of the customer, and unanimously recognized the clearly defined and achievable project objectives two weeks later. Then, we have integrated the "resource, plan, and demand" Golden Triangle, and extracted the most urgent list of functional points that can be implemented for implementation and testing, in the end, two weeks later, the customer was very satisfied with the efficient delivery of ready-to-run products to the customer.

In project management, there is always a situation where "the plan cannot keep up with the changes", and it is very difficult to plan the project and manage the entire progress. At this time, it is most important to grasp the main contradictions, grasp the key points of work, perform periodic target management, and perform step-by-step iteration and implementation. We need to have a global plan, but we can start from the details and implement it step by step.

In addition, it is necessary to communicate well with the customer in a timely manner and clarify the goals and expectations of both parties. Otherwise, as the project progresses, it is too late to find that there is a small gap between the expectations of both parties. In other words, the two parties did not reach an agreement on mutual acceptance on the project goals. In this way, there may be a win-win situation. Either the final result is not what the customer needs, or the customer constantly modifies the requirements, which affects the project progress and quality. Project objectives are both the embodiment of customer expectations and the expectations of project implementers. Therefore, they should be clear and achievable.

Of course, the implementation of the project goal is subject to certain constraints, that is, it should be achieved within the determined time and financial budget. There are some goals that cannot be achieved, but the cost is too high or cannot meet the requirements of the progress. Therefore, in project implementation, the project manager should do a good job of scope management, communicate well with the customer, and take a small amount of money to raise the money.

The two-week and three-week phased project objectives are the most appropriate. Clear goals can make the team feel at your fingertips and at a certain level of tension, so as to achieve efficient development.

Clear stage objectives in the project will also help the IT staff of the project to better understand what to do, because in some projects, it is often one-sided pursuit of advanced and perfect technology, while ignoring who the project results serve. Many developers tend to pursue perfection, but ignore what is the focus, what is not the focus, what is what they like, what is the most desired by the customer, and what is the most urgent thing at present, what can be done in the future.

Therefore, in order to ensure the pleasant and effective cooperation between the two parties during the project implementation process and ensure the successful implementation of the project, both parties should pay attention to defining clear goals and stages as soon as possible in the initial stage of project implementation and implementation, in order to achieve a win-win situation.
