Green Project
Management Overview PM00.10G |
The world is going green. We are collectively realizing that we do
not have an unlimited amount of air or water or space to continue to
utilize resources as we have done in the past. How can we apply
these “green” concepts to our project management discipline? One
obvious way is that we can manage green projects more efficiently.
The sooner that project ends, the sooner the green benefits will be
achieved.
Most project managers however, do not manage these kinds of
projects. Most of us manage projects such as installing a new
software package or upgrading network infrastructure. How can these
projects become more environmentally friendly?
The answer is Green Project Management (GreenPM). Green project
management is a model where we think green throughout our project
and make decisions that take into account the impact on the
environment – if any. It is a way to ingrain “GreenThink” into every
project management process.
