It’s the 5th times, PMI Indonesia has conducted International Symposium and Exhibition (SymEx) from 2011 in Bali, 2012 in Yogyakarta, 2013 in Bandung, 2014 in Palembang and now 2015 in Bogor.

It is part of PMI Indonesia Chapter commitment to provide a forum for professionals to network and advance project management in the business and educational communities of Indonesia, as well as to serve as Indonesian project management association, recognized and accepted by government, business and educational communities. SymEx is one of the commitment from Indonesia Chapter aside from other program that has been conducted and delivered regularly from the chapter to serve the above purpose.

Themed “Beyond Or Behind: Advancing Business Transformation with Innovative Project Management”, the symposium facilitated the sharing of project experiences, knowledge and skills of prominent speakers and project management experts. The chapter was honoured to host

prominent speakers such as Todd Hutchison, MCom, MBA, PMP, 2015 PMI Board of Directors; Alexander Rusli, PhD, CEO of Indosat; Eric Tomich, AIA, RIBA, Technical Director of SOM; Bima Arya, PhD, Mayor of Bogor City; Senior Director of KPMG Management Consulting ASEAN, Markus Walter, PMP, CISA, CISM, TOGAF, ITIL; Rudianto Rimbono, VP Project of SKK Migas and many more.

This event was attended by 205 persons not only from Indonesia, but also from other country as well, with more than 98% are satisfi ed about the whole performance of SymEx 2015. The keynote speaker, Todd Hutchison shared the global trends in project management. Other keynote speakers, Alexander Rusli talked about challenges of multi project management in Indonesia Telecommunication industry.

Todd Hutchison also had the opportunity to speak to more than 220 of students from Department of Computer Science in Bogor Agricultural University, from both undergraduate and graduate level.

These programs were successfully executed, it is indicated by some positive questions and feedbacks from all participants. The SymEx also featured a networking dinner with a unique show of West Java traditional musical from Saung Angklung Udjo.

After all the hard work of Symex 2015 has fi nished, it was time to celebrate the success of the event and to appreciate all of the time, effort and energy that has been dedicated throughout the

preparation and the execution of the event. As soon as the closing ceremony was over, all the committee members and some of the speakers and VIP guests changed their costume and got ready to head out to the venue, Tier Sierra Café and Lounge at Bogor.

The event was opened by Sepryany Linta as the event coordinator who thanked all the event participant, briefl y outlined the event and (what everybody has been waiting) announced that the food was ready. Appetizers and main course were soon to be enjoyed over good conversation and laughter.

Next on the agenda were some short speeches from Dodi Darundriyo (the project manager), Todd Hutchinson (Director of PMI) and Arisman Indrawan (President of PMI Indonesia Chapter) who thanked and congratulate all of the committee for the success of Symex 2015, followed by some sharing from Handy Matunry (Co-PM and Stage Manager), Sunardo (sponsor team) and Astri Laksita Wikaningtyas (registration team) on the highlights of the preparation and the execution, encouraging others to participate as committee members for the next event, Symex 2016 in Surabaya. Corina Permatasari Munthe and Aji Prasojo Reksoprodjo who acted as the host for the night, then led the participants for some games and fun including some volunteer awards and distributing some doorprizes.

One thing that can be seen clearly on that event was the passions of all the volunteers that never seemed to cease in delivering events for PMI Indonesia Chapter. This passion has created the great atmosphere in the chapter resulting in solid teamwork and good networking among the volunteers. Our motto in PMI Indonesia Chapter, FUN and EXCELLENT, has clearly inspired all of us in the chapter, including in our daily activities too.

So, come and join the committee for Symex 2016 in Surabaya next year and lets experience FUN and EXCELLENT together.

At November 14th , 2015, The 2015 PMP Study Group Season 8 program (PMPSG Season 8) is closing with fi nal session at PT. Mora Telematika Indonesia for Simulation of PMP Exam.

This fi nal session was the pinnacle of 13 weeks learning on PMBOK 5th Edition. All of the participants of PMPSG Season 8 were invited to join. Because of so many participant want to join this fi nal event, then it was separated into two sessions. The fi rst session was in the morning from 8.00 AM – 12.15 PM and the second session in the afternoon from 1.15 PM – 5.15 PM. it’s conducted like the real PMP exam where all participants only get 15 minutes to get a ‘feel’ on the User Interface of the exam and/or do a brain dump on 2 sheets of paper and 4 hours to complete the 200 questions PMP exam.

After each participant in fi rst session fi nished their exam, they had lunch along with mentor and participant for second session. After lunch, the participant from fi rst session continued to sharing session. In this session, mentor measured the participant progress based on their score in this simulation and from their experience in taking 200 question PMP Exam for the readiness of each participant to take the real Exam. For the participant of second session, after lunch, they start their simulation. And then they continued to sharing session after

each participants of second session fi nished their exam. Some of the participant show good score and have recommendation to take their real exam in 3 weeks but some are still needed to strengthen their weakness in some knowledge areas.

We would like to say thank you for all volunteer mentor that have spare their time for the study group, helping participants to understand the concept, context and detail of PMBOK 5th Edition and for the participants to actively join the PMP Study for the whole 13 weeks. Also, we would like to thank you for all the company that sponsored us during this season 8: Kampus S2 Paramadina (Ibu Afrianty), PT. PhinCon (Ibu Arifa tan), PT. Mora Telematika Indonesia (Ibu Fenni Rahayu, PMP & Bapak Jeffry N Joris, PMP), PT Datacomm Diangraha (Bapak Octovianus Tradius Hauteas, PMP), PT Rekayasa Industri (Ibu Sofi e Zahra), and PT Pertamina Hulu Energi (Bapak Ashabul Kahfi ) for giving us the place and very warm hospitality.

We wish all the participants will keep up their spirit, continue their study outside study group and attain their PMP Credentials!

Something wild is happening with conservation IT projects. Sensors, big data and drones are helping global not-for-profi t organizations track populations and identify threats to some of the world’s most endangered animals. These ambitious projects aim to stop ruthless poachers and preserve dwindling habitats—all in an attempt to save at-risk species from extinction.

And the need for high-tech help is urgent. The earth’s wild vertebrae population was more than halved between 1970 and 2010, according to a 2014 report by global wildlife preservation group World Wide Fund for Nature, also known as WWF. And an estimated 41 percent of amphibian species and 26 percent of mammal species are threatened by extinction, according to 2015 data published by the International Union for Conservation of Nature based in Gland, Switzerland.

The goals of IT conservation projects range from protecting elephants and rhinoceroses in Africa to preserving bumblebees and sea turtles in North America. And the risks these projects face are just as varied. Whether they’re battling natural forces, corruption or uncooperative animals, project managers must fall back on the fundamentals.

“Conservation projects need to apply project management methodologies, because the unpredictable scenario is very much a part of [these] projects,” says Elena Bulmer, PMP, biodiversity project coordinator for environmental organization Worldwatch Institute Europe, headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark.

AGAINST THE ELEMENTSGiven the unpredictable nature of conservation fi eldwork, extensive testing is the fi rst step for any project run by Panthera, a New York, New York, USA based organization that uses cameras to track the population of tigers and other wild cats around the world. So far, the organization has deployed more than 9,500 cameras—some of which need to operate glitch-free in the wild for as long as fi ve years, says Chris Cline, Panthera’s chief technologist, New York, New York, USA.

Camera performance can be affected by heat, humidity or moisture, depending on the location, Mr. Cline says. So his team puts cameras through submersion testing to help ensure the equipment will withstand extended exposure. In some tests, cameras are sprayed with water four times a day, for 30 days, in an enclosed compartment. And a heat lamp warms the compartment several times each day to create humidity.

“It’s an accelerated reliability test—it might represent about two years in the fi eld in harsh environments,” Mr. Cline says. “Weatherproofness is important—especially in places like Nicaragua and Malaysia—because you need to prevent moisture from getting inside and ruining electronics.”

Whether they’re caused by climate conditions or operator error, gear glitches and breakdowns can seriously impact budgets, timelines and

overall project success, says Ms. Bulmer. Likewise, the testing required to make sure the equipment will hold up under adverse conditions “involves considerable trial and error, which may, in turn, use up time in the project schedule,” she says.

“There is always some risk involved here. If [technology devices] don’t work, then the information gathered from these projects will be limited and the outcome will not be assured,” she says.

Unreliable infrastructure in remote locations also poses signifi cant project risks, says Eric Schmidt, executive director, Wildlife Protection Solutions (WPS), Denver, Colorado, USA. For instance, a project to deploy Internet-connected cameras to deter rhino poaching in South Africa took an extra month, in part because fl ooding closed all roads to the project site for a week—and the team had to replace camera cables after baboons chewed through them.

The team also had to resolve problems created by South Africa’s energy infrastructure. For example, WPS chose to use solar panels to power its research facility to avoid being impacted by the power outages the local electricity company schedules every month, Mr. Schmidt says. However, the team also had to install a backup generator several months into the project after learning that malfunctioning inverters, which convert DC to AC electric current, occasionally knocked out solar power.

“We have learned that, almost without fail, there are unforeseen complications related to working in remote areas which can cause extensive timeline delays,” he says.

LEARNING TO FLYOnce the equipment is in the fi eld, preservation projects need adept operators behind the scenes. So project managers must make sure team members are comfortable with tech tools from the start. Building training into the budget and schedule has helped multinational organization Conservation Drones to keep its animal-monitoring projects on track.

For example, the organization’s ongoing in Indonesia’s Northern Sumatra rain forest uses drones to capture high-resolution surveillance photos that help the team estimate the local orangutan population. is initiative, which began in February 2012, takes about half as much money and time as the traditional method—walking the forest with heavy equipment and binoculars, says Lian Pin Koh, founding director, Conservation Drones, Adelaide, Australia.

Yet Mr. Koh says the organization is still learning how to best train team members to use the drones, which capture much sharper images than conventional aerial photography and can scan the periphery of a forest for poachers. “When we fi rst started conducting training classes for local conservation groups, we tried to do too much too soon,” he says.

For example, the team initially o ered full-day classes that didn’t work

well for operational personnel more accustomed to working in the eld. “We learned to alternate classroom and practical sessions for better uptake,” he says.

The language barrier also created roadblocks. “In many parts of the tropics we work in, English is not a common language,” he says. “We learned that it is much more e ective to train a small group of English-speaking people and for them to train the others—rather than doing it for everyone at once.”

LEADING THE PACKTechnology-based preservation projects also are helping animals in captivity. A subset of those projects aims to re-establish wild populations of endangered species at zoos, such as the California condor, black-footed ferret and red wolf. Yet zoos aren’t necessarily eager to learn or embrace new tech tools.

Getting zoos to buy in to a new approach requires the support of their member associations, says Lisa Faust, vice president of conservation and science at Lincoln Park Zoo, Chicago, Illinois, USA. Ms. Faust is project lead for PMCTrack, a software deployment and development initiative that helps zoos determine which animals—often endangered species—are best suited to breed or mate. The three-year, US$623,000 software

development project was completed in 2011. The ensuing deployment, which began in 2011, is ongoing. Population Management Center (PMC), a joint venture between Lincoln Park Zoo and the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), led development and deployment.

While PMCTrack’s software was being developed, coordinators reached out to future users at AZA member zoos to see what type of features and functionality they would fi nd most useful. Based on this feedback, PMC created a tool that uses online surveys to gather breeding histories and automatically calculate which animals are most likely to reproduce. This supports conservation efforts by helping organizations create more informed breeding plans.

PMC has offered courses, informational webinars and one-on-one guidance on how program managers at zoos can use the tool in an effort to accelerate adoption. Plus, AZA also has encouraged program leaders at member zoo s to use the system, Ms. Faust says.

“We worked to highlight for people how the system could help them get ready for the rest of the work they need to do to manage their populations,” she says. “Ultimately, we hope that this leads to maintaining healthy and viable species survival plan populations.” “Ultimately, we hope that this leads to maintaining healthy and viable species survival plan populations.”

M y journey towards PMP certifi cation begins in June 2015 when I realized that I needed recognized management qualifi cations to complement my experience and advance my career. After careful considerations, I set my sights on the highly regarded PMP and started on my way.My responsibilities limited my preparation options. I couldn’t stretch my schedule to enroll in any sort of classroom training or study groups. I was only able to attend a PMI Indonesia Chapter exam prep event in Jakarta the day before my exam, to the distress of the mentors (sorry guys).I spent approximately 300 hours of intensive study time between July and October 2015. My preparations mainly consisted of;1. Reading the PMBOK Guide, Fifth Edition2. Viewing the PM Prepcast videos by Cornelius Fichtner3. Taking the PM Prepcast fi nal exam for the 35 hours obligatory

certifi cate4. Viewing the PMP Primer videos by Dave Litten5. Taking the online PM Exam Simulator while reviewing my study

materials (2000 questions or so)6. Studying the sample questions (about 2000 questions) that came

with the study materials

7. Using the internet to source several thousand more questions to use with an offl ine exam simulator.

Below are some time management methods I used in the exam on October 29th:I assumed that I would need to review all questions at least once, so that made a total of 2 x 200 questions in 4 hours, roughly 36 seconds per question.There are some basic types of question;The scenarios need the most analysis time, since the terminologies were purposefully vague. I allowed ±2 minutes to answer each, less than that for the reviews.The formulas need analysis to recognize the corresponding metrics and applicable formulas. I allowed 1 to 2 minutes to answer each, less than that for the reviews.The “match term to defi nition” questions allowed me to earn the time I needed to answer the more complex questions. I allowed approximately 10-15 seconds per questions, and less than that for review. I prepared myself before the exam and didn’t take any breaks. I fi nished reviewing the last questions with 15 minutes to spare and passed the exam with 1P and 4MPs.Some personal discoveries;1. Project Management is all about the people. The processes

described in the PMBOK Guide are means to that ultimate end.2. The PMBOK Guide is an excellent resource, but the most

important resources are your experience and the people you meet along the way.

3. I avoided brain dumping since I believed a complete understanding of the ITTO’s and formulas is a better approach than rote memorization or a cheat sheet. Be aware of your quirks, prepare your own way, and enjoy your journey.

Rejoin and Renew Members list per October 2015

Our sincere gratitude for new members and renew members, your involvement and supports for PMI Indonesia Chapter are very valuable for us. In October 2015 we had 20 new members and 16 members who renewed their membership. We hope next month,

with more marvellous activities provided by PMI Indonesia Chapter, more members would renew their membership. Thank you for join and let’s get involved with PMI Indonesia Chapter because good things happen when you stay involved with PMI.

Membership Growth and PercentageBased on the graph above, it appears that members of Indonesia Chapter grew -0,9% lower than the prior year numbers. This is a not good growth rate but PMIIC never give up to increase our membership growth. However, Indonesia Chapter still has the highest percentage of members up to 76% than any other country in the Regional 15 Countries. Likewise, the number of PMP members perched on 39%, the biggest numbers in these terms.

The picture above shows the number of PMI members who have domiciled in Indonesia, Indonesia Chapter members, total certifi cants, and total PMP within the last 3 months. In September, total chapter members decreased to 662 from 668. We must still grow up the number of our members. In the other hand, total PMP certifi cants decreased by 2 persons to 575 persons. Hope we can more increase the growth of the number of chapter members and PMP certifi cants on next month.
