Gestão de Projetos - Questões Cespe - Prof. Rodrigo Rennó
Summary
TLDRIn this video, Rodrigo provides a detailed explanation of key concepts in project management, focusing on common exam questions related to project lifecycle, cost management, risk strategies, and stakeholder involvement. He addresses the differences between project management methodologies, such as predictive, adaptive, and iterative, while clarifying misconceptions in the questions. Rodrigo also explains the importance of managing risks, including mitigation, transfer, elimination, and acceptance strategies. The video offers practical insights for understanding project management principles and prepares viewers for assessments related to these topics.
Takeaways
- 😀 Projects are temporary efforts aimed at producing unique products or services, not routine, repetitive activities.
- 😀 Project management is not necessarily linked to low-cost products; it can be used for high-cost products as well.
- 😀 In predictive project management, the scope is defined at the beginning, and estimations for cost and time are fixed. In iterative and incremental approaches, scope and estimates evolve over time as understanding of the product increases.
- 😀 Adaptive project management is ideal for environments with high levels of uncertainty and requires continuous involvement from stakeholders.
- 😀 In project life cycles, costs generally increase initially and decrease as the project nears completion, not the other way around.
- 😀 The distinction between predefined life cycles (predictive) and flexible life cycles (incremental, iterative) is important in understanding project management approaches.
- 😀 The strategy for handling a negative risk could involve eliminating, transferring, mitigating, or accepting the risk based on the situation.
- 😀 If the project team does not update the risk management plan, the chosen strategy is typically risk acceptance rather than mitigation.
- 😀 Stakeholders are anyone impacted by the project's decisions, including employees, shareholders, suppliers, customers, and local communities.
- 😀 Projects developed by both public and private institutions must deliver products or services to clients, which could include citizens, other organizations, or internal departments.
Q & A
What is the key difference between a project and a routine task?
-A project is a temporary effort that generates a unique product or service, while a routine task is repetitive and continuous within an organization. Projects have a defined end and deliverables, unlike routine tasks.
Why is project management not recommended for managing routine activities?
-Project management is designed for temporary efforts with specific goals and deliverables, while routine activities are ongoing and repetitive. Routine activities are better managed through process management, not project management.
How does project management relate to products of varying costs?
-Project management is not restricted to managing low-cost products. It can be applied to both low-cost and high-cost products. The focus is on managing the project itself, not the cost of the product.
What is the main characteristic of a predictive life cycle in project management?
-In a predictive life cycle, the project scope, time, and cost are generally defined at the beginning of the project. The project progresses through a detailed, well-planned execution.
What is the distinction between incremental and interactive life cycles?
-In incremental life cycles, the project scope is developed in iterations, with each iteration building upon the previous one. In interactive life cycles, phases of the project repeat to refine and improve the project, often as more is learned about the product.
What is an adaptive life cycle in project management?
-An adaptive life cycle, also known as agile, is designed for projects with high uncertainty and continuous stakeholder involvement. It adapts to changes and is ideal for environments with evolving requirements.
How do project costs generally evolve over the course of a project?
-In general, project costs are low in the initial stages as planning and staffing are still minimal. Costs increase as the project progresses, and peak during execution. Towards the end of the project, costs decrease as the team completes tasks and disbands.
What are the primary strategies for managing risks in projects?
-The main strategies for managing risks are: elimination (removing the risk entirely), transfer (shifting the risk to a third party), mitigation (reducing the impact of the risk), and acceptance (acknowledging the risk and doing nothing to mitigate it).
What is meant by the term 'stakeholder' in project management?
-A stakeholder is any individual or group that is affected by or has an interest in the outcome of a project. This includes clients, employees, suppliers, shareholders, and even the local community.
Why is it important for public institutions to identify their customers when managing projects?
-Identifying both internal and external customers is crucial for public institutions, as the project is often developed to meet the needs of specific clients or groups, ensuring that the product or service delivered aligns with their expectations.
