Manajemen Proyek Sistem Informasi - Pertemuan 5 - Resource Manajemen

Summary

In this video tutorial on Information Systems Project Management, the instructor discusses the essential resources for managing a project. These resources are categorized into three main types: human resources, reusable software components, and environmental resources like hardware and network infrastructure. The video explores the importance of skilled personnel, specialized roles in development, the reuse of software components, and the significance of the working environment. It also covers team roles in project management, from senior managers to developers, emphasizing the need for effective communication and resource planning in successful project execution.

Takeaways

• 😀 Human resources in a project include factors like the number of people, their expertise, and their locations.
• 😀 Reusable software components can be categorized into bought, full experience, partial experience, and new components.
• 😀 Environmental resources include hardware (e.g., computers, servers) and networks that support the project’s infrastructure.
• 😀 A project manager (PM) oversees daily activities and is responsible for managing both human and technical resources.
• 😀 Projects require different organizational structures, such as functional, pure project, or matrix organizations, based on the project needs.
• 😀 Human resources for a project can work remotely or on-site, depending on the role and the team requirements.
• 😀 The size, strategic policies, innovation needs, complexity, and budget affect the choice of the organizational structure for a project.
• 😀 Software development teams can reuse code from previous projects, reducing the need to build components from scratch.
• 😀 Environmental resources, like powerful hardware and high-quality monitors, are needed depending on the specific role (developer, designer, etc.).
• 😀 Effective resource management is essential to the successful completion of information systems projects, involving human resources, reusable software, and environmental resources.

Q & A

What are the three main types of resources in project management for information systems?

The three main types of resources in project management for information systems are human resources, reusable software components, and environmental resources.

What factors are important when managing human resources in an information system project?

Key factors in managing human resources include the number of people needed, the specific skills required, and whether team members will be working on-site or remotely.

How are reusable software components categorized in project management?

Reusable software components are categorized into four types: commercially available software, full software components, partial software components, and new software components that need to be developed from scratch.

What is the role of environmental resources in an information system project?

Environmental resources refer to hardware, software, and network infrastructure that provide the necessary platform for the development and delivery of the project, such as computers, internet connectivity, and operating systems.

Why is it important to assess the availability, duration, and location of resources in project management?

Assessing these characteristics helps ensure that resources are available when needed, used efficiently for the required duration, and located appropriately for on-site or remote work.

What types of software components can be reused in a project, and how does reusability impact project development?

Software components can be reused in several ways: commercially available software, pre-built components from past projects, or parts of code that are partially reused. Reusability saves time and resources, as teams can leverage existing solutions rather than build everything from scratch.

What are the key roles in project organization, and how do they contribute to the project’s success?

Key roles include the project manager, development team, and stakeholders. The project manager oversees the project, the development team executes the technical work, and stakeholders provide input and guidance. Each role ensures that the project meets its objectives and requirements.

What is the difference between a functional, pure project, and matrix organizational structure in a project?

A functional organization groups people by their functions or departments. A pure project organization is dedicated entirely to a specific project, while a matrix organization combines both functional and project-based structures, allowing for greater flexibility and resource sharing.

How does the role of a project manager impact the outcome of a project?

The project manager is responsible for planning, organizing, and managing resources to ensure the project is completed successfully. Their leadership, communication, and technical skills are crucial in guiding the team and managing risks, deadlines, and project scope.

What are the seven factors that influence the selection of an organizational structure for a project?

The seven factors include project size, strategic policies, need for innovation, integration requirements, number of departments involved, external complexity, and time/budget constraints. These factors help determine the most effective organizational structure for a project.
