What is a project integration management?
Project integration management involves coordinating all of the other project management knowledge areas throughout a project’s life cycle, i.e. project scope, quality, time, cost, human resources, communications, risk and procurement
The three processes of project integration management are:
Project plan development – putting results of other planning processes into a document – the project plan
Project plan execution – carrying out the project plan
Integrated change control – coordinating changes across the project

4. Project plan development
Faculty of Computing and Informatics
Project plan development
Project plan is a document :
That is used to coordinate all project documents and help guide a project’s execution and control
That documents project planning assumptions and decisions regarding choices,
That facilitates communication among stakeholders
That defines the context, extent and time of key management reviews
That provides a baseline for progress measurement and project control
The project plan consists of:
Project plan contents
Stakeholder analysis and top management plan

14. Project plan development– Integrated change control
Faculty of Computing and Informatics
Project plan development– Integrated change control
Integrated change control is identifying, evaluating and managing changes throughout the project cycle
The 3 main objectives of integrated change control are:
Influencing the factors that create changes to ensure that changes are beneficial, e.g. scope, time, quality, cost
Determining that a change has occurred – knowing status of key project areas at all times
Managing actual changes as they occur

15. Project plan development– Integrated change control
Faculty of Computing and Informatics
Project plan development– Integrated change control
Change control system is a formal documented process that describes when and how official project documents can be changed and people authorized to make changes
Change control board is a formal group of people responsible for approving or rejecting changes to project
Configuration management ensures that descriptions of the project’s products are correct and complete – functional and physical
Communication –written and oral performance reports to help identify and manage project changes
