What is Monitoring & Controlling?
In general, monitoring means watching the course, and controlling means taking action to either stay the course or change the wrong course. You monitor the project by generating, collecting, and distributing information about project performance against the baselines. Performance reports are used to monitor and control the project work. Deviations of performance results from the plan might indicate that some changes to the original project plan are required. Other change requests might come from stakeholders, such as expanding the project scope by adding new requirements. You control all these changes by influencing the factors that generate them, processing them through a system called the integrated change control system that contains a process called the Perform Integrated Change Control process, evaluating their impact across the project, and ensuring the implementation of the approved change requests.
In addition to the schedule activities that need to be executed, the project management plan also contains a list of risks and the risk management plan. You monitor the risks by looking out for the risk triggers (the alerts that tell you a risk has occurred or is about to occur) for the already identified risks and by identifying new risks as the project progresses. You control the risks by executing the risk response plan and taking corrective and preventive actions. Quality is an integrated part of any project. Therefore, monitoring and controlling the project work includes controlling the quality. All these aspects of the project are monitored and controlled by using two high-level processes that belong to integration management: the Monitor and Control Project Work process and the Perform Integrated Change Control process. This also includes administering the procurement part of the project, which is another high-level process by its virtue.
Yes you're right, Project Tracking is actually part of Project Monitoring. Check the Progress control section in the below (side) article.
Illinois Structural Health Monitoring Project was created in 2002.
Project Monitoring is an activity that happens when the Project is in Execution Phase. When people are working on the project tasks, the Manager monitors their work and ensures that the work progresses as planned
Diffence between project appraisal and project monitoring
periodically
It takes place from the project approval to closeout.
Yes, for project monitoring purposes among others.
project monitoring is important because it will be helpful for planner to know that the project is going on a right path according to our goals or not ,if there is any problem then it could be sort out on the spot and the time and resources could be saved.
Monitoring - collecting, recording, and reporting information concerning project performance that project manger and others wish to know Controlling - uses data from monitor activity to bring actual performance to planned performance
The 2 have nothing in common. Project Scheduling is done in the Project Planning phase, Project Controlling and Monitoring is project life cycle phase.
The five phases of project management are: a. Initiating a project b. Planning the project c. Executing the Project d. Monitoring & Controlling the project e. Closing the project
According to the PMBOK, there are two processes in the Project Integration Management Knowledge Area that fall in the Monitoring & Controlling phase.They are:Monitor & Control Project WorkPerform Integrated Change Control
A monitoring and evaluation officer records statistics for certain projects and then analyses the results to evaluate where improvements can be made to the project.
The five components of a charter are project initiation stage, project planning and design stage, project execution and construction stage, project monitoring and controlling systems, and project completion.
You need to implement the initiating and closing You must continue repeating Plannind and Executing You need to repeat Monitoring and Controlling
The project is initiated, planned, and executed in pieces, and all those pieces are related to each other and need to come together. That is where integration management comes in. For example, integrating different subsidiary plans into the project management plan needs to be managed. Project integration management includes developing the project charter, developing the project management plan, directing and managing project execution, monitoring and controlling project work, performing integrated change control, and closing the project or a phase of a project. While managing all the aspects of the project, you as the project manager, will need to coordinate different activities and groups, and for that you need to communicate.
Project Management Work Stream involves people who are involved in the management of Projects. They are called Project Managers and their responsibilities include:Planning for a ProjectMonitoring & Controlling the Project ExecutionClosing the Project
Monitoring means supervising and gathering data about what is happening in the project. For example, you may gather details about the money that is spent on the project and then compare it with the plan you had made during the planning stage. Once you gather the information you will know whether the project is having a cost overrun or we are within budget. Controlling means taking necessary steps to make sure the project is on track. Lets say the project is having a cost overrun, you need to take steps to cut costs and bring the cost back into plans.
The project is initiated, planned, and executed in pieces, and all those pieces are related to each other and need to come together. That is where integration management comes in. For example, integrating different subsidiary plans into the project management plan needs to be managed. Project integration management includes developing the project charter, developing the project management plan, directing and managing project execution, monitoring and controlling project work, performing integrated change control, and closing the project or a phase of a project. While managing all the aspects of the project, you as the project manager, will need to coordinate different activities and groups, and for that you need to communicate.

The Monitoring and Controlling processes take place throughout the project lifecycle The Monitoring and Controlling process group shows the most activity in the middle of the project lifecycle, when the Executing process group activities are approaching their peak
it is a project job that involves programe management
