Course Description

Enterprise Project Management (EPM), in broad terms, is the field of organizational development that supports organizations in managing and adapting to the changes of a transformation, typically as a result of large scale IT projects. Enterprise Project Management is a way of thinking, communicating and working, supported by information systems, that organizes an enterprise’s resources in a direct relationship to the leadership’s vision and mission, strategy,goals and objectives that move the organization forward. Simply put, EPM provides a 360 degree view of the organization’s collective non-operational efforts. This is one of the most difficult areas of organizational management to realize as 47% of large enterprise projects fail to meet scope, cost, or quality goals.

What is Enterprise Project Management (EPM)?

To put it in broad terms, Enterprise Project Management is a methodology of managing a project, or multiple projects, on an organization-wide scale. It’s a type of organizational development that manages and adapts to changes that are often the result of large-scale IT projects. EPM involves various aspects of projects including the implementation of processes and strategies that are aimed at improving the overall effectiveness of project management and the streamlining of project initiatives on an enterprise level. According to the Project Management Institute (PMI), the initiatives may include:

* Creating a project management team and/or department * Using the appropriate software to consolidate co-occurring projects, making them more visible and trackable across the enterprise * Using “stages of growth” models to improve the overall project-management capabilities of the team or department

What Are the Benefits of Learning Enterprise Project Management?

Enterprise project managers are highly valued employees of larger organizations because with their skills and experience, they are able to determine how and where to focus company resources. They view projects as building blocks that are working together to reach company goals rather than distinct, unrelated endeavors.

The biggest benefit of EPM training for project managers is the value that they will bring to their organizations. By knowing how to effectively evaluate the host of ongoing company projects on a continual basis and making sure that the organization’s resources are utilized in the most productive way, enterprise project managers are extremely valuable to their organizations. They have the potential to save organizations money, to increase profitability, and to ensure that projects are completed on time.

Those are not the only benefits for organizations that employ qualified enterprise project managers. PMI outlines the following additional benefits of effective EPM:

* Improved productivity * High-quality output * Lower project risks * Increased reliability of completion * Reduced impact of skills shortage

It’s easy to see how enterprise project managers benefit the organizations they work for. The value they bring to the organization sets them up for increased job security, higher earning potential, and increased advancement and job opportunities. An effective and qualified enterprise project manager is a much sought-after employee for many enterprise level companies.
