Projektmanagement

Project management - Network techniques and project management systems

Please note: This publication is primarily in German.

Projects account for around a third of all working hours in Germany. Professional planning, control and implementation in project management is therefore crucial to a company’s success. The continuous optimization of projects and increasing efficiency are key challenges that benefit both companies and their employees.

This compendium of standards for project management provides a comprehensive normative framework for this. Over more than 500 pages, the DIN Taschenbuch 472 combines central project management standards and provides sound knowledge in the following areas:

• Basics of project management
• Methods and processes in project management
• Specific specialized information and data models

DIN Standards in project management: Content and structure

DIN Taschenbuch 472 contains essential standards for modern project management, including DIN 69900 and the DIN 69901 series of standards (Parts 1-5). These standards cover key aspects such as network techniques, terms, processes, methods, data and data models in project management.

The collection also contains guidelines for quality management in projects. The work is supplemented by international standards on project, programme and portfolio management, which are available in both German and English. These provide valuable guidance for managers, company management and clients in particular.

Up-to-date compendium of standards for successful project management

The success of project work is largely based on clearly defined structures and standardized processes. The documents contained in this set of standards create precisely this framework and support the successful realization of projects.

The five parts of DIN 69901 offer a systematic presentation of:

• Fundamentals and terminology
• Processes and process models
• Project management methods
• Data and data models

These standards enable users to align their projects with established standards and implement them in compliance with them.

DIN ISO 10006 also provides a practice-orientated guideline for quality management in projects, which helps to ensure project quality. In addition, other standards deal with the topics of project, programme and portfolio management as well as governance in the project environment.
