2. Direct the use of the selected development methodology | 2.1 Review the initial project plan to guide developmental processes 2.2 Review the identification of appropriate task types according to development methodology 2.3 Review the description and articulation of task types 2.4 Review the definition of appropriate control structures that need to be created during task type execution 2.5 Review the identification of resources to support methodology selection 2.6 Monitor the application of appropriate methodology to solve tasks 2.7 Monitor the project flow and effectiveness of use of methodology against project plan 2.8 Review the documented opportunities for improvement, lessons learned and recommendations for future projects |
Evidence of the ability to:
manage a project team
