Integrated Project Management

and Control: First Comes the

Theory, then the Practice

by Mario Vanhoucke. Springer, 2014.

To read this ebook, check the library catalogue

This book presents an integrated approach to

monitoring projects in progress using Earned Value and

Earned Schedule Management combined with Schedule

Risk Analysis. Monitoring and controlling projects

involves processes for identifying potential problems in

a timely manner. When necessary, corrective actions

can be taken to exploit project opportunities or to get

faltering projects back on track. The prerequisite is that

project performance is observed and measured

regularly to identify variances from the project baseline

schedule. Therefore, monitoring the performance of

projects in progress requires a set of tools and

techniques that should ideally be combined into a

single integrated system. The book offers a valuable

resource for anyone who wants to understand the

theory first and then to use it in practice with software

tools. It is intended for students, professionals and

academics with an interest and/or experience in

running projects as well as for newcomers in the area of

project control with a basic grasp of the Earned Value,

Earned Schedule and Schedule Risk Analysis concepts.
