COMPUTERS IN PROJECT MANAGEMENT Easy sorting & listing of activities Easy updation & new listing of project
progress over the life cycle Certain advanced analysis practical only with

![Page 42: 1 Project Intro](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042905/577cc0731a28aba711902569/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
IMPORTANCE OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT Factors leading to the increased
use of project management: Compression of the product life cycle Global competition Knowledge explosion Corporate downsizing Increased customer focus Rapid development of Third World
and closed economies Small projects that represent big
problems
![Page 43: 1 Project Intro](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042905/577cc0731a28aba711902569/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
INTEGRATED PROJECT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS Problems resulting from the use of piecemeal
project management systems: Do not tie together the overall strategies of the
firm. Fail to prioritize selection of projects by their
importance of their contribution to the firm. Are not integrated throughout the project life
cycle. Do not match project planning and controls with
organizational culture to make appropriate adjustments in support of project endeavors.
