Plan scope management	Deliniation of how the scope will be managed. ex: how additional work will be handled in case it's needed.
Collect requirements	things I need to do to deliver what I want
Define the scope	reunion of project requirements to produce a document (scope statement) that defines who the project will be approached
WBS Work breakdown structure	breaks down the project into smaller manageable pieces of work. The tool to manage the scope
Plan schedule management	after defining what you need to do, you must define how long it will take. rules of the game regarding the schedule.
Define activities	activities that will deliver the scope described in the WBS
schedule	is any kind of display of how the project will be placed over time (Gantt, network diagram)
estimate activity resources	goes hand in hand with estimate activity durations because I must know how many resources I have in order to estimate how long it will take to do things since most of the tasks are effort driven.
Plan communication management	different from the other plan...management, in this, you1ll build your communication plan: - what will be communicated -to whom -where -when -how much it will cost and all the basic information
plan risk management	defines the risk tolerance
Difference between Qualitative and quantitative risk analysis	Qualitative: uses a scale (low, medium, high or green, yellow, red) quantitative: uses math to calculate probability and impact
Plan procurement management	Defines the make or buy items. Will be everything be done internally in the project or should something be bought?
Plan stakeholder engagement	After the stakeholders are identified, they must be mapped in terms in term of influence and power. Goes hand in hand with plan communication since most communication is needed to reinforce stakeholder engagement
acquire resources	part of the executing process group because it should be done as late as possible in the project since it represents money expenditure. Sometimes needs to be done earlier since there might be a delay between acquisition and resource availability
conduct procurement	buy, based on how procurement was planned in the plan procurement management process. Goes hand in hand with acquire resources because, most of the times, when you acquire a resource you need to go through a procurement process.
Manage stakeholder engagement	verification of the plan communications management
executing and monitoring & controlling	goes hand in hand. In executing, the plans from the planning process group are put in place and in monitoring & controlling they are being verified.
validate x control scope	validate: is a check. was the scope defined in the planning process group delivered? Control: was the scope defined in the planning process group delivered as planned? If something is different, it needs to be controlled.
control procurement	is the process in which payments are done, goods are received and etc. Conduct and control procurements go hand in hand.
monitor communications and stakeholders engagement	goes hand in hand in a very integrated way the executing processes of managing stakeholders' engagement and managing communications, as stakeholders may change.
PMBOK Guide Process Flow	is very agile. They are not written in stone, it's supposed to be reviewed and fluid.
5 new processes in PMBOK 6th ed	4.4 - manage project knowledge (lessons learned). Group: executing 8.2 - manage quality. Group: executing 9.2 - estimate activity resource. Group: planning 9.6 - control resources. Group: monitoring & controlling 11.6 - implement risk responses. Group: executing
Project Management process groups that must be included in every project	Initiating, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, closing. You might not use all the process from these process groups - that's when you are tailoring.
Initiating	Definitions of the project prior to its start, authorization of the project start. It's when you Understand how the project supports strategic objectives. It's the "WHAT".
Planning	Refinement of the definitions from the initiating process group which generates a plan to meet the expected results and achieve the defined objectives. It's the "HOW". It's the biggest one among the other and it's crucial to determine how the project will evolve.
Executing	Putting the plan into action. Conclusion of the plan in order to meet project requirements. Generally takes up the MOST resources and project time.
Monitoring and controlling	monitoring, controlling and analyzing project progress and performance in comparison to the initial plan. Identifying necessary changes in the plan and implementing them, when needed.
closing	conclusion of the project or phase. A phase or project must formally be closed and accepted before moving to the next phase or being archived and having its resources freed.
10 knowledge areas	integration, scope, schedule, cost, quality, resources, communication, risk, procurement, stakeholders

stakeholder	Identification of people, groups, areas, etc. that can be impacted (positively or negatively) by the project, analyze their expectations, level of engagement and influence over the project.
