What is Project Management Information System?

The Project Management Information System (PMIS) is a


software application used to store, organize, and control
project data and information.
Need for Project Management Information System

⮚With the old traditional project management systems, project managers


have had trouble. It is because of various reasons like managing data
and information regarding the project.
⮚ The communication and the knowledge between the other teams are
also lagging in the traditional project management system. To overcome
these issues, the Project Management Information System has been
developed as a software tool that project managers can use to manage
and communicate with the project.
⮚It provides various features and benefits when compared to traditional
project management.
Project Performance
The performance measurement of management is another feature available
in the PMIS. The existing plans are updated in the case of any changes made
internally or by the customers. Some of the changes have to be accepted
and updated in the project plan. The current status of the project is
identified with the help of calculations like Estimate at Completion (EAC),
Estimate to Complete (ETC), Variance at Completion (VAC), etc.
Managing Data Resources
Data Resource Management
• Data are a vital organizational resource that needs to be
managed like other important business assets. Today's business
enterprises can not survive or succeed without quality data
about their internal operations and external environment.
• That's why organizations and their managers need to practice
data resource management, a managerial activity that applies
information systems technologies like database management,
data warehousing, and other data management tools to the task
of managing an organization's data resources to meet the
information needs of their business stakeholders.
File Organization Terms and Concepts:
● A computer system organizes data in a hierarchy that starts with bits and bytes
and progresses to fields, records, files, and databases.
● A group of bits, called byte, represents a single character, which can be letter, a
number, or another symbol.
● A grouping of characters into a word, a group of words, or a complete number,
is called field.
● A group of fields comprises a record.
● A group of records of the same type is called a file.
● A record describes an entity.
● An entity is a person, place, thing, or event on which we maintain info. Each
characteristic or quality describing a particular entity is called an attribute.
Problems with Traditional File
Designing Database

Network Data Model

The network data model is a variation of


the hierarchical data model. The databases
can be translated from hierarchical to
network and vice versa to optimize
processing speed and convenience.

Whereas the hierarchical depict


one-to-many relationships, network model
depicts as many-to-many relationships.
Each parent can have multiple children, and
a child can have more than one parent.
Data Mining
• Data mining is a major use of data warehouse databases. In data
mining, the data in a data warehouse are analyzed to reveal hidden
patterns and trends in historical business activity. This can be used to
help managers make decisions about strategic changes in business
operations to gain competitive advantages in the marketplace. Data
mining can discover new correlations, patterns, and trends in vast
amounts of business data (frequently several terabytes of data), stored
in data warehouses. Data mining software uses advanced pattern
recognition algorithms, as well as a variety of mathematical and
statistical techniques to sift through mountains of data to extract
previously unknown strategic business information.
