Management of non-typical FIND projects
The project manager will decide whether a new project is a typical or non-typical project.
Project managers and project leaders should schedule a project initiation meeting (or a conference call) to agree on the project framework (e.g. phases, milestones and documents to be prepared).
All non-typical projects will begin with a Concept phase and milestone 1 (Concept defined).
Documents to be prepared for milestone 1 for non-typical project (NTP).
Concept review Planning of next phase
Deliverables - Concept Definition
- Project Description
- Project Plan - Phase Plan
- Budget Forecast
- Timelines (Gantt chart)
- Risk Assessment and Mitigation Table
- Milestone On-Track Assessment Table
- Milestone 1 Checklist (NTP)
Example of document:
Monitoring of non-typical projects
Non-typical projects will be monitored regularly at project management meetings since all project management-related procedures also apply to non-typical projects. Mandatory documents for project monitoring are
Monthly Project News (containing Milestone On-track Assessment Table and Risk Assessment and Mitigation Table).
Milestones and deliverables of non-typical projects
Performance reports of previous phase (Phase Reports) must be prepared and approved for each milestone of non-typical projects. A Phase Report is produced describing achievements and comparing set phase targets with attained goals. Decisions will be made on project continuation and targets of next
Phase Plan during the FIND milestone review process.
