BUSINESS MANAGMENT The Performance Mapping and The Complete Project Management Measurement Handbook Office Handbook, Third Edition Gerard M. Hill, Principal, Hill Consulting Group, Woodbridge, Virginia, USA Expanded and thoroughly revised, this book extends the concepts and considerations of “modern project management” into the realm of project management oversight, control, and support. It recognizes the need for a centralized organizational entity—the project management office (PMO)—to perform in this capacity. It also positions the PMO as a business integrator, whether that role is limited to managing multiple projects as a program, or expanded to serve both project and business management interests in the organization. The PMO model defined in this book helps both project managers and the organization to understand and apply professional practices in project management, and to adapt and integrate business practices into the project management environment.

Jerry L. Harbour, Vector Resources, Inc., Trinidad, Colorado, USA During nearly four decades of experience helping clients across various industries understand, measure, and improve the performance of their processes, Jerry L. Harbour discovered a handful of performance maps that will work in most settings. As such, he’s gathered these critical few maps into this handbook. The book explains performance mapping and measurement techniques at widely differing spatial and temporal scales. It includes case studies from a range of operational and industrial settings that demonstrate how the mapping and measurement techniques described in the book can be applied to new technologies and processes.

In most of the examples, the author first presents strategies and steps for solving the problem, then offers a solution, and finally gives a more detailed explanation of the solution.

This handbook shows how the techniques of point-pattern analysis are useful for tackling ecological problems. Within an ecological framework, it guides readers through a variety of methods for different data types and aids in the interpretation of the results obtained by point-pattern analysis. Along with the techniques, the book provides a comprehensive selection of real-world examples. Most of the examples are analyzed using the authors’ software package Programita. The software and a manual are available online. December 2013: 538pp Hb: 978-1-4200-8254-8: £49.99
