Project management methodologies are essentially different ways to approach a project. Each one has its unique process and workflow.

Here we take a look at some of the top project management methodologies we follow at USM.

Waterfall Project Management Methodology

We sequence the tasks that lead to a final deliverable and work on them in order. This is the waterfall methodology — the traditional method for managing projects and the one that is simplest to understand. One task must be completed before the next one begins, in a connected sequence of items that add up to the overall deliverable. It’s an ideal method for various projects.

The power of this methodology is that every step is preplanned and laid out in the proper sequence. While this may be the simplest method to implement initially, any changes in customers’ needs or priorities will disrupt the sequence of tasks, making it very difficult to manage. This methodology excels in predictability, but lacks in flexibility.

Critical Path Method (CPM)

The critical path method was developed in the 1950s and is based on the concept that there are some tasks you can’t start until a previous one has been finished. When we string these dependent tasks together from start to finish, we plot out your critical path.

Identifying and focusing on this critical path allows us to prioritize and allocate resources to get the most important work done, and reschedule any lower priority tasks that may be clogging up your requirement. This way, if changes need to be made to the project schedule, we can optimize your work process without delaying the end results.

Extreme Project Management (XPM)

Extreme project management (XPM) is the opposite of waterfall. It offers you a way to manage massive change and still move forward to project completion. In XPM, you can alter the project plan, budget, and even the final deliverable to fit changing needs, no matter where the project is. It’s a good option when managing projects that have a short timeline of anywhere from a few weeks to mere days.

Benefits Realization

From conception to execution to delivery and beyond, the benefits realization methodology focuses on whether your deliverable satisfies the benefits the customer is expecting to get from it, not just whether or not a product was delivered on time or within budget. This methodology ensures that you deliver real value to customers and stakeholders.
