Hard interface: Hard interface Physical connections between two or more components or systems. Internal interface: Internal interface Those identified within a single scope of work. External interface: External interface Those identified between two or more scopes of work. Copyright ©2024 Project Management Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.

Team: Owner Branding representative Griller General manager You would love to assign Jimmy, a foreman from your team, to handle this, but you are the point person and everyone keeps bypassing Jimmy and coming straight to you. Identify some roles that would represent each type of interface: Soft | Hard | Internal | External 8 Copyright ©2024 Project Management Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.

This material is being provided as part of a PMI course. 11 Interface Categories Captures the interactions of human involvements in complex projects Social Defines how project parties work together through social interfaces Requires social contracts to clarify various elements On-going and not a function of the way the project develops Static Represents relationships between ongoing subsystems Arises due to the activity and interdependencies generated over time Dynamic Time-dependent—early interfaces have effect on subsequent ones Copyright ©2024 Project Management Institute, Inc.

This time, identify roles for each of the following interfaces… Physical Functional Contractual Organizational Knowledge Resources Social Static Dynamic 9 Copyright ©2024 Project Management Institute, Inc.

Consistency is essential in identifying, categorizing, and managing interfaces. Copyright ©2024 Project Management Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.

Work with your team to create a list of five to ten early interfaces that could impact Speedy Hot Dogs. Jot down some notes on how you would manage each.

Share a story about a time that you wished you had used an IAF. Copyright ©2024 Project Management Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.

The register can be updated based on approved changes made to the relevant IAF. IDR Copyright ©2024 Project Management Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.

Break into two groups and take turns listing items that should be put into the IDR. 10 Copyright ©2024 Project Management Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.

This material is being provided as part of a PMI course. 27 Summary CII developed a universal lexicon of commonly agreed- upon definitions. Interfaces can be soft or hard as well as internal or external. Best practices recommend: Interfaces be described, documented, and agreed upon That rigorous configuration management be in place That a centralized IDR logs all interface agreement forms This ensures proper communication and transparency between parties.

How have you seen using interface management serve as a benefit or a problem in past projects you have worked on? 15 Copyright ©2024 Project Management Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.
