School financial management is very important to do in carrying out school activities. There are various sources of funds owned by a school, both from the government and other parties. When public funds or other third party funds flow in, a professional and honest financial management system must be prepared. Financial management in general has actually been done well by all schools. Only the levels of the substance of the implementation varied from one school to another. This diversity depends on the size of each school, school location and school nickname. In ordinary schools where the carrying capacity of the community is still relatively low, financial management is still simple. Meanwhile, in ordinary schools that have a large carrying capacity, maybe even very large, of course financial management tends to be more complicated. This tendency is made because schools must be able to accommodate various activities that are increasingly demanded by the community.

This case examines the different project management approaches at Techlogix. Some are highly structured and formal while others are relatively unstructured and informal. The Engyro project involved the development of an Applications Service Provider (ASP) Payments System through a highly structured formal project management system, which created few problems in terms of product specification changes and development. However, a Financial Management System (FMS) developed for the Government of Guam through a relatively unstructured and informal project management approach proved to be a bad experience for Techlogix. The CEO wanted to standardize a highly structured project management system for the company. The project managers at Techlogix feared that a highly structured system would reduce flexibility available to project managers. They felt that a structured configuration and change management system would require a lengthy process to bring about changes in a project's specifications. This would eventually discourage change and create customer dissatisfaction or force the project managers to circumvent standardized procedures creating other problems. This case is useful for examining the factors relevant to project management approaches.
