What is Project Management?
As defined by PMI®, project management is the application of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to project activities to meet project requirements. Managing a project typically includes the following:
• Identifying the requirements for the project;
• Making sure the needs of the stakeholders are met;
• Well established communication protocols;
• Managing resources; and
• Balancing project constraints, which include but
not limited to:
o Scope
o Schedule
o Budget
o Quality
o Resources
o Risks
Please note, each project is different, and effective management requires the project manager to adapt accordingly.
