"I believe this nation should commit itself to the goal of sending a man to the moon before the end of this decade and returning him safely to Earth."
--John F. Kennedy, May 25, 1961

If you can state the goal, constraints and schedule of your project as clearly and succinctly as that, you have made a very good start to being able to manage it properly.

Some of the projects I have managed:

Sold, managed and delivered a project to migrate Clarify from old version to current and from an aging HP-UX server to a new NT machine. Worked the extensive sales process necessary to gain a new client with no prior experience with our firm, and closed the sale. Project managed the team offsite from kickoff to delivery.

Provided project management consulting on a number of projects surrounding the program to establish a new Sales and CRM platform for Xerox. (Customer's plan was to move $70MM in sales through just the pilot of this system.) Developed and documented essential processes to make sure compliance is maintained with the standards that earned Xerox its CMM Level 2 certification. Performed security assessment of entire platform and obtained Corporate InfoSec approval.

Supervised two project teams totaling 15 programmers, two business analysts and two project managers. Managed the planning, design, development, testing and installation of a complete rewrite of the system for selling life insurance, a project that consumed 9,000 person-hours over 4 months, using Oracle V7, Developer/2000 and SQR.

Prepared and tested Disaster Recovery plans to bring up customer service operations within four hours of a disaster on a warm site restoring all inbound telephone service and data. Responsible for the staffing of this project, interface with client, monitoring of actual vs. budgeted hours and other resources spent, change control, and all other management issues arising during the course of the effort.

Overall responsibility for a large HR consulting firm's Compensation Management software, written in MS Access, targeting all Windows environments (3.x, 95, NT). Managed $1.5MM development budget and supported $4.1MM of installed systems. Supervised a direct staff of four and a project development team of up to ten. Supported 30 sales people in 8 offices. Sales went from startup to $1.6MM in license fees and additional $2.5MM in associated consulting revenue in the first year.
