The amount of money allocated to a specific project is referred to as the project budget. It refers to any prediction or estimation made on a project’s status, including how it will unfold in the future. The shortest time estimated to complete a specific project task or activity is known as optimistic duration. Delphi Technique.

A robust PM system might tell you how a project is doing at any moment, but it can’t tell you how the organization or its constituent people are performing. Measuring and monitoring project management metrics fills this gap. The tools you’re using to measure the metric must have a low error rate. Measuring Planned Value is easy.

The paper on the Cone of Uncertainty is used by many in the No Estimates community as an example of why estimates are of little use. In this paper, there is data that does not follow the Cone of Uncertainty, in that the uncertainty of the estimates does not reduce as the project proceeds. Then there is some analysis.

I've seen estimates abused by bad managers, so let's NOT estimate and that will fix the behavior of Bad Managers." While the human behaviors are real and observable, conjecturing that decisions can be made in the presence of uncertainty without estimating the outcome of those decisions, there is no principle to support that conjecture.

Without the right software to organize all the project information, projects can go off track — so having a PMIS (or project management information system) comes in handy. A PMIS is a software program or application that organizes and controls the flow of project data and information. Project review and closure stage.

I was well aware that part of my code was complex and any addition would be risky. Practically it means that when a planned task is delayed due to uncertainty, the delay is not compensated by other tasks finishing early. It helps us begin somewhere rather than getting paralyzed by what we don’t know.
