- Project Integration Management Changes

B • • • It emphasizes the interactions among the Knowledge Areas. Outputs from one process become inputs to another. The structure is flexible and robust. Changes in knowledge and practice can be accommodated by adding a new process, by resequencing processes, by subdividing processes, or by adding descriptive material within a process. Processes are at the core of other standards. For example, the International Organization for Standardization’s quality standards the ISO 9000 series are based on identification of business processes. 9. We added some illustrations. When it comes to work breakdown structures, network diagrams, and S-curves, a picture is worth a thousand words. 10. We significantly reorganized the document. The following table provides a comparison of the major headings of the 1987 document and the corresponding headings andor content sources of the 1996 version: 1987 Number and Name 1996 Number and Name 0.

Both the 1996 document and the 1987 version provide a structure for organizing project management knowledge, but neither is particularly effective as a classification tool. First, the topics included are not comprehensive—they do not include innovative or unusual practices. Second, many elements have relevance in more than one Knowledge Area or process, such that the categories are not unique.
