Event Report: 2 DAY COURSE ON BASIC PROJECT MANAGEMENT FOR YOUNG ENGINEERS ON WHAT SHOULD YOUNG ENGINEERS KNOW
The Graduate & Student (G&S) Section of the Institution of Engineers, Malaysia organized the above course for two (2) days from 13 to 14 December 2011 at Tan Sri Prof. Chin Fung Kee Auditorium, 3rd Floor, Wisma IEM. The course was attended by 51 participants.
The course was delivered by Ir. Noor Iziddin Abdullah Bin Haji Ghazali, M.Eng. (Telecommunication), B.Eng. (Elect. Eng), Diploma Islamic Studies(UIA), P.Eng, MIEM, PMP® now attached to KLCC Projects Services for commercial projects at Putrajaya Holdings in Project Management Consultant team. The speaker also currently is the Industry Advisory Panel (IAP) for the undergraduate program in project management at University Malaysia Pahang (UMP). According to Ir. Noor Iziddin the project management (PM) knowledge and its methodologies have evolved and improved significantly over the last three decades. This in part is attributable to many of the lessons learnt from the successes and failures of projects undertaken by organizations. Ir. Noor Iziddin gives the essence of project management, especially suitable for those who intend to gain a fundamental but solid grounding on project management. The participants also learn the structured and integrated approaches, processes, tools and techniques that are applicable to managing phase in project life cycle. This course contents are closely referenced to PMBOK Guide, 4th edition of the Project Management Institute with a short presentation on PRINCE2 from UK.
The 1st day starts with the topic on Introduction to Project Management, Definition of Project Management, Context of Project Management, History of Project Management and Knowledge Areas & Process Group.
Some of the benefit on implementing the right project management process and tools such as minimize the project challenges, ensure project deliverables achieved the project objectives within the agreed budget, time, scope & quality, ensures customer’s investment is protected, actual implementation is realizing the agreed project execution plan, takes away the customer’s hassles from managing the resources in the project, ensures the integration between our technical solution implementation and the customer’s quality expectations and the documentation of the project lesson learnt.
The details of each five (5) process groups and nine (9) knowledge areas which has been use by project managers around the world been explained throughout this two (2) days course:-
Figure 1: Project Life Cycle
Project manager, as the single point of responsibility, will be responsible for either performing the work or delegating it.
Figure 2: Intersecting Management Skills
When planning and control techniques available to manage complex projects were inadequate, this encouraged the development of scheduling methods which integrates project procurement, resources and costs.
With these shortcomings in mind, Network Planning Techniques using similar network format were developed; i.e.
• 1956 CPM – Critical Path Method. (Microsoft Project)
• 1961 PERT – Program Evaluation and Review Technique. (Primavera)
Effective communication is important for project managers for two reasons. Firstly communication is the process by which the management functions of planning, organizing, leading, and controlling are accomplished. Secondly communication is an activity in which managers devote an overwhelming portion of their time.
Subsequently for the projects to be successful, the selection of appropriate processes within the project management process groups required to meet the objectives. The speaker stress the use defined approach to adapt to project specifications. One needs to comply with the requirements to meet stakeholder’s needs and expectations. Not forgetting to balance the competing demands of scope, time, cost, quality, resources and risk to produce quality outcomes.
In Project management, the goals set are usually referred to the following;
1. Time
2. Cost
3. Quality
In addition, the speaker also explains the needs of the models are to aid decision-making leading to project selection. In establishing relationship between a project’s expected results and the company’s strategic goals, the following information’s are required;
• Production Considerations
• Marketing Considerations
• Financial Considerations
• Personnel Considerations
• Administration and Other Considerations.
The selection of the right project for future investment is a crucial decision for the long-term survival of a company. Numeric methods are used as a process for ranking and evaluating prospective projects as a commitment for the future.
The financial models are;
• Payback Period
• Return on Investment (ROI)
• Net Present Value (NPV)
• Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
On the 2nd day which is the last day discuss about Project Life Cycle, Project Management Framework, Goal & Objectives, PRINCE 2, Practical approach to infrastructure project management and close with the final topic which is Project Management Consultant (PMC) Concept.

Professional Engineer Q&A: Part 18
FAQs on General
Q32: Why should there be an Interview with essay writing?
Many have asked this question at previous dialogue sessions. A lot of the engineers feel that the engineering degree would be sufficient evidence to show the qualification. This issue has been discussed time and again and the IEM Council feels that there is the need to maintain and upgrade the standard of the profession and as such the interview would be able to keep the engineers aware of the importance of the standards of engineering writing.
FAQs on Membership application
Application for Student Membership of IEM
Q33: I am pursuing my undergraduate course in one of the accredited local universities. I submitted my application for Student Membership in lumped package complete with application forms and cheques via a local IEM Branch. I understand the IEM HQ did not receive the postage. What would IEM advise me or the Branch to do now?
IEM would advise the Branch to re-send the photocopied forms (with endorsement as true certified copy per original) to IEM HQ for subsequent action. The Branch has to cancel the missing cheque and reissue a new cheque with matching details. The Branch is also encouraged to ensure proper delivery via secured courier service
