Sarchet, the first Chair of the Engineering Management Department at Missouri S&T, along with the support and encouragement of Chancellor Merl Baker U.S. Energy Crisis and Engineering Management Mid-1970's Leaders and researchers were forced to develop solutions Engineering management progressed considerably in policymaking, technology, and architecture, all of which in the mid-1970s in response to the energy crisis required coordinated engineering planning. Pres. Carter had 32 solar panels installed on the White House West Wing INNOVATORS & PIONEERS OF Engineering Management Innovators and Pioneers of Engineering Management Engineering management emerged from the convergence of engineering principles and managerial practices, necessitated by the increasing complexity of industrial projects, technological advancements, and the need for structured organizational processes. The field has been shaped by a diverse array of pioneers, each contributing theories, tools, and methodologies that have influenced both the technical and managerial aspects of engineering. Innovators and Pioneers of Engineering Management Contributions: Taylor is considered the father of Scientific Management. His work aimed to improve industrial efficiency by studying workflows, implementing standardized processes, and optimizing the division of labor. Taylor's time and motion studies helped to systematize engineering and manufacturing tasks. Key Work: The Principles of Scientific Management (1911), where he outlined his approach to increasing productivity through better management of workers and processes. Frederick Winslow Taylor (1856–1915) Innovators and Pioneers of Engineering Management Contributions: Henry Gantt’s major accomplishment, one still influencing work today, is the “Gantt Chart.” This management tool is a graph that’s used in planning, scheduling and controlling work. He’s also a forefather of industrial efficiency through scientific analysis that removes chance and accidents. Key Work: Gantt's charting method is a fundamental tool in modern project management and is widely used in engineering management for visualizing timelines, tasks, and resource Henry L.. Gantt allocation. (1861–1919) Innovators and Pioneers of Engineering Management Contributions: The Gilbreths were pioneers in time and motion studies, focusing on improving industrial efficiency by studying worker movements and processes. Their work in analyzing and improving work processes is foundational in both industrial engineering and management. Frank Gilbreth (1868–1924) Key Work: Motion Study: A Method for Increasing the Efficiency of the Workman(1917) which outlines their methodology for analyzing work processes and improving efficiency through detailed observation and breakdown of tasks. Lillian Gilbreth (1878–1972) Innovators and Pioneers of Engineering Management Contributions: Fayol is known as the “father of modern management” because of his theory tasked leaders with setting the tone for the rest of the organization. He is known for developing administrative management theory, focusing on the broader principles of organizational management. Key Work: General and Industrial Management (1916), which outlines his principles of management. Henri Fayol (1841–1925) Innovators and Pioneers of Engineering Management Contributions: Max Weber was a German sociologist and political economist known for his theory of bureaucracy. His model emphasized rational-legal authority, formalized rules, clear hierarchies, and division of labor, all of which are foundational principles in both general and engineering management. Key Work: Economy and Society (1922), where Weber outlined his ideas about bureaucracy. Weber’s ideas on bureaucracy and organizational structure help shape large-scale engineering projects, particularly those in industries like construction, Max Weber manufacturing, and public infrastructure. (1864–1920) Innovators and Pioneers of Engineering Management Contributions: Maslow is best known for his Hierarchy of Needs theory, which categorizes human motivation into five levels, from basic physiological needs to self-actualization. While his work is primarily focused on psychology and human motivation, it has applications in management and leadership. Key Work: A Theory of Human Motivation (1943), where Maslow introduced his hierarchy of needs. Maslow’s theory plays a role in understanding employee motivation, which is crucial Abraham Maslow in managing engineering teams. (1908–1970) Innovators and Pioneers of Engineering Management Contributions: Jerry Harvey is particularly famous for introducing the concept of the Abilene Paradox, a phenomenon in which a group of people collectively decide on a course of action that contradicts the preferences of individual members. Key Work: The Abilene Paradox and Other Meditations on Management (1988), in which he shows how miscommunication and social conformity can lead to poor decisions. In engineering management, where decision-making often involves cross- functional teams working on complex projects, this serves Jerry B. Harvey as a cautionary tale about the dangers of groupthink. (1934-Present) Innovators and Pioneers of Engineering Management Contributions: Elton Mayo is recognized as a pioneer in engineering management due to his foundational work in the field of organizational behavior and the human relations movement. Key Work: The Hawthorne Studies, which was conducted by him, were a series of experiments that focused on the impact of working conditions, group dynamics, and leadership on employee productivity. Elton Mayo (1880-1949) ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT Area of Practice Engineering management is a diverse discipline that combines complicated engineering ideas with good management practices. Each area of practice plays an important role to ensure that engineering efforts are in line with company goals and suit society's ever-changing needs.

ENGINEERS IN VARIOUS Types of Organization Engineers in Various Types of Organization Example LEVEL ONE - These are companies where engineering roles are not a major part of the business. The primary focus is on the area of customer service or sales that have some engineering needs, such as maintaining store equipment or managing technology systems. Engineers in Various Types of Organization Example LEVEL TWO - These organizations have a larger need for engineering, but it still does not dominate their workforce. Transportation companies, such as airlines, logistics firms, or shipping companies, are good examples. They rely on engineers to design, maintain, and manage vehicles, transportation systems, and infrastructure. Engineers in Various Types of Organization Example LEVEL THREE - These are the organizations where engineering is at the core of their daily activities, and most of the work revolves around technical expertise and problem-solving in engineering fields. They employ many engineers to design, plan, and oversee projects, ensuring that buildings, roads, bridges, and other structures are built safely and efficiently. Management Skills Required at Various Levels In a level one organization, an engineer will have a slim chance of becoming the general manager or president unless they own the firm. In such organizations, the engineer may be assigned to head a small engineering unit, though not many firms will have such a unit. In level two firms, the engineer may be assigned to head the engineering division. At this point, the need for management skills will be felt by the engineer-manager. Level three firms provide the greatest opportunity for an engineer to become the president or general manager. In this case, the engineer-manager cannot function effectively without adequate management skills. ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT Process Diagram Process Diagram of Engineering Management A project management flow outlines the structured sequence of activities and decisions required to complete a project. It details the project’s scope, key tasks, milestones, dependencies, and decision points, providing a comprehensive roadmap that guides the project from initiation to completion. Process Diagram of Engineering Management PROJECT PROJECT PROJECT PROJECT PROJECT Initiation Planning Execution Monitoring and Closure Control Process Diagram of Engineering Management PROJECT This phase outlines the project's inception, including defining project goals, objectives, and scope, and creating a project charter INITIATION Problem Identification - The first step in the project initiation phase is to clearly define the engineering problem or need that the project aims to address. This involves conducting a thorough analysis of the problem, identifying its root causes, and determining the desired outcomes. Feasibility Study - A feasibility study is a comprehensive evaluation of the project's potential. It examines the technical, economic, and resource feasibility of the project, taking into account factors such as the availability of technology, the costs involved, and the availability of necessary resources. Project Charter - The project charter is a formal document that outlines the project's objectives, scope, deliverables, and constraints. It serves as a roadmap for the project team, providing a clear understanding of the project's goals and expectations. Process Diagram of Engineering Management PROJECT This stage details the creation of the project plan, which involves tasks like work breakdown structure (WBS), resource allocation, scheduling, risk assessment, and communication planning. PLANNING Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) - A WBS is a hierarchical decomposition of a project into smaller, more manageable tasks. It provides a clear and structured framework for planning, organizing, and tracking project activities. Scheduling - Once the WBS is created, the project manager can develop a project schedule. This involves estimating the duration of each task and creating a timeline for the entire project. The schedule should take into account dependencies between tasks, resource availability, and potential risks. Resource Allocation - Once the project schedule is developed, the project manager can allocate necessary resources to each task. This includes assigning team members, equipment, materials, and other resources that are required to complete the work. Risk Management - Risk management is an essential part of project planning. It involves identifying potential risks that could impact the project's success, assessing the likelihood and impact of each risk, and developing strategies to mitigate or avoid them. Process Diagram of Engineering Management This phase focuses on the actual implementation of the project plan, including PROJECT task execution, monitoring progress, and managing resources. EXECUTION Team Leadership and Motivation - Effective leadership is essential for successful project execution. Engineering managers must be able to motivate and inspire their teams to achieve their goals. Task Delegation and Coordination - Engineering managers must be able to delegate tasks effectively to their team members, ensuring that each person is assigned work that aligns with their skills and expertise. This requires careful planning and coordination to ensure that all tasks are completed on time and to the required quality standards. Quality Control and Assurance - Engineering managers are responsible for ensuring that the project meets the required quality standards. This involves implementing quality control measures, such as inspections, testing, and audits, to identify and address any defects or non-conformities. Process Diagram of Engineering Management PROJECT This phase focuses on the actual implementation of the project plan, including task execution, monitoring progress, and managing resources. EXECUTION Communication and Stakeholder Management - Effective communication is essential for successful project execution. Engineering managers must be able to communicate clearly and effectively with all stakeholders, including team members, clients, and senior management. Change Management - Projects often involve changes to the original scope, schedule, or budget. Engineering managers must be able to effectively manage these changes to minimize disruption and ensure that the project remains on track. This requires careful planning, communication, and decision-making. Process Diagram of Engineering Management This stage involves tracking project performance, identifying deviations from PROJECT the plan, and taking corrective actions. MONITORING Progress Tracking and Reporting - Engineering managers must track project progress against the established schedule and budget. This involves monitoring AND CONTROL key performance indicators (KPIs), such as cost, schedule, and quality, and providing regular reports to stakeholders. Performance Measurement and Evaluation - Engineering managers should evaluate the performance of their team members and the overall project. This involves assessing individual contributions, identifying areas for improvement, and providing feedback to team members. Issue Resolution and Problem-Solving - Engineering managers must be able to identify and resolve issues or problems that arise during project execution. This requires effective problem-solving skills, as well as the ability to make informed decisions under pressure. Process Diagram of Engineering Management PROJECT This final phase encompasses project completion activities, such as final documentation, evaluation, and lessons learned. CLOSURE Project Delivery - Once the project is completed, the engineering manager should ensure that the final product or service is delivered to the client or customer. This may involve conducting a final inspection or testing to verify that the project meets the required quality standards. Project Evaluation - After the project is completed, the engineering manager should conduct a thorough evaluation of the project's performance. This involves assessing whether the project met its objectives, identifying lessons learned, and documenting the project's successes and challenges. Closure Documentation - Finally, the engineering manager should prepare and maintain appropriate closure documentation, such as project files, reports, and records. This documentation can be used for reference purposes in the future.
