Question:
Answer:
What is Project Management?
Project management, is the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to describe, organize, oversee and control the various project processes.
But perhaps project management can best be described in terms of the things that you need to do to successfully manage a project:
* Develop and manage a project plan (Integration Management)
* Plan, define and manage project scope (Scope Management)
* Create a project schedule, plan resources and budget costs (Time & Cost Management)
* Develop a quality plan and carry out quality assurance and quality control activities (Quality Management)
* Perform organizational planning, manage staff acquisitions and promote team development (Human Resource Management)
* Develop a communications plan (Communications Management)
* Identify risks, prepare risk mitigation plans and execute contingency actions (Risk Management)
This list may seem quite overwhelming but be assured that even the smallest project can benefit from each of these project management processes. Please note however, that the extent to which you carry out each of these activities should be based on the nature, size and complexity of your project and on your level of project management expertise.
Please refer to the Project Planning Tutorial for helpful (and practical) instructions on implementing the various processes.
