And yes, agile project management artifacts get a mention. The 9 types of artifacts are: Strategy Logs and registers Plans Hierarchy charts Baselines Visual data and information Reports Agreements and contracts Other – a bucket category for anything else. Visual data and information. Let’s look at each of those in more detail.
Without a way of organizing all information a project is doomed to fail. How can some many data channels be organized so that they’re delivered to the right party and that person knows that they’re being notified? That’s what PMIS comes in, which is an acronym for project management information system.
The 9 types of artifacts There are 9 types of artifacts, and every project management document or thing you create falls into one of these categories (not least because the last one is a giant bucket for everything else, as you’ll see). The point of having visual data sources is that they make it easier to understand the information.
Continuous Improvement The ongoing effort to improve a project process, product, or service to achieve better results. Cost Estimation The process of estimating project costs is done by leveraging historical data, expert judgment, or quantitative models. Feasibility Study An analysis of a project’s viability.
EVM in Microsoft Project. Microsoft Project has built-in fields for all EVM measurements and can be calculated at any point of time in the projectlifecycle. I look forward to starting a series of articles on how to use EVM in Microsoft Project, including best practices.
The default Entry table of MS Project doesn’t show various variance fields, although you can add those fields/columns into the table and get the displayed view. To see the start and finish variances, switch to Variance table by going to View tab > Data group > Tables drop-down menu. These should be inactivated as you close the project.

Organizational Governance Systems serve as champions of accountability, holding the project manager, project owner, and teams responsible for their actions and decisions. They provide the framework that upholds accountability to ensure project outcomes within organizational objectives and stakeholder expectations.
The Triangle Distribution is used as a subjective description of a population for which there is limited sample data, and especially where the relationship between variables is known but data is scarce. Risk management is the continuous process applied throughout the projectlifecycle.
When we talk about the projectlifecycle and within it, the development approach, we sought out to say, no, we have to design this in the different chapters and segments. Unbiased, reliable data. But it’s also got to be actionable data, right? Sorry, Microsoft. But there are a lot of issues with that, right?
