PMP-style authority map
Professional PM Knowledge — structured, measurable, decision-first
This page is written to build authority: clear domains, artifacts, decisions, and measurable outputs. The theme across all domains is “Ifs & Butts”.
| Area | Artifacts | If/Then/But example |
|---|---|---|
| Integration | Charter, Plan, Change Control | IF scope changes, THEN run CCB, BUT protect critical path |
| Scope | WBS, Acceptance Criteria | IF requirement ambiguous, THEN refine, BUT avoid gold-plating |
| Schedule | Network, Baseline, Forecasts | IF SPI<0.95, THEN accelerate, BUT manage risk/quality debt |
| Cost | Budget, EAC, ETC | IF CPI<0.95, THEN reduce burn, BUT maintain delivery value |
| Quality | DoD, Gates, NCR | IF defects rise, THEN tighten gates, BUT protect throughput |
| Risk | Register, Monte Carlo | IF P80 exceeds deadline, THEN re-plan, BUT keep governance |
| Stakeholders | Engagement plan | IF sponsor misaligned, THEN reset objectives, BUT preserve trust |
