1. Introduction Boeing commercial airplanes has took on a project to manufacture the boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft. However, problems occurs throughout the manufacturing process and after the aircraft was manufactured. Aircrafts was overweight and technical issues causing delays and losses of billions of dollars. Problems with landing gear and lithium-ion batteries arise after the aircraft went on service. Hairline cracks are found in the wings during manufacturing. And engine shut down and loses

Following are the ten knowledge areas defined by PMBOK®. Project integration management: Project integration management includes the processes and activities to identify, define, combine, unify and coordinate the various processes and project management activities within the project management process groups
The Importance of Work Breakdown Structure for GIS Project Management Deniz Kilic, Pinar Balci (d.l.kilic.@students.uu.nl, p.balci@students.uu.nl ) SUMMARY The aim of this paper is to highlight the importance of Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) in the context of Geographic Information System (GIS) projects’ management by discussing its contributions to GIS project management. According to the undertaking studies, many organizations that have GIS project failures, do not realize the importance of
rates of return. Therefore, a financial manager must be able to decide whether an investment is worth undertaking and be able to choose intelligently between two or more alternatives. To do this, a sound procedure to evaluate, compare, and select projects is needed. This procedure is called capital budgeting. (Mukherjee T. and Henderson G. 1987) In the form of either debt or equity, capital is a very limited resource. There
management of construction industry and results indicated that more than two-thirds of the projects are not able to complete in the given time due to poor management (CIOB, 2008). In fact, an effectively managing the time and change are the two main key factors for the success of projects (Thomas, 2013). Time management can be defined as the process of recording and controlling time spend by the project team (Westland, 2006). According to PMBOK (2008), they agreed on time management is the process
Minimizing project risks is important in software development process. Investigation on risk management in software development has especially concentrated on forming instructions for different tasks.
