Project Management Planning and Control by Albert Lester
The success of the sixth edition has prompted the publishers to suggest an updated version in the form of a seventh edition.
For this reason, the bulk of the sixth edition has remained the same, but the chapters dealing with the newer developments in project management such as BIM, Governance and Agile PM have been updated to reflect the latest techniques.
The example of the hotel conversion, given in Chapter 51 (sixth edition) on Primavera P6, only referred to risk analysis in the text, and this has now been augmented by the addition of the risk analysis calculations and the associated tables and graphs.
New facets of project management are appearing all the time, but the topics forming part of Integrative Management,
such as business case, control, information management, organization, planning, information management, and stakeholder management are largely unchanged.
However, three new topics, i.e., data collection (including Big Data), which is part of information management, baseline reviews and sustainability have now been incorporated.
In addition, some subjects such as adjudication, earned schedule and meetings have been expanded. For readers intending to take the APMP examination,
a set of bullet points based on selected topics given in the APM Body of Knowledge (sixth edition) are included in the book as Appendix 7.
This list was based on the course notes prepared by the author for students attending the project management course at UCL.
Furthermore, the answers to the examination questions in Appendix 4, which have been increased from 50 to 60, are now given in Appendix 8.
The bibliography has been updated, mainly with the addition of books related to the BIM and Agile Project Management both of which are relatively recent additions to the sphere of project management.
As with the sixth edition, the contributions by Graham Collins (Agile Project Management), Clive Robinson (BIM), David Shannon (governance), and Arnaud Morvan (Primavera P6) add great value to this book and are acknowledged with thanks.
