Project Management

Project management

is the discipline of planning, organizing, securing and managing resources to bring about 

the successful completion of specific project goals and objectives.

A project is a temporary endeavor, having a defined beginningand end (usually constrained by date,

but can be by funding or deliverables), undertaken to meet unique goals and objectives, usually to bring about beneficial change or added value.

The temporary nature of projects stands in contrast to business as usual

 (or operations), which are repetitive, permanent or semi-permanent functional work to produce products or services. In practice, the management of these two systems is often found to be quite different, and as such requires the development of distinct technical skills and the adoption of separate management.

The primary challenge of project management is to achieve all of the project goals and objectives while honoring the preconceived project constraints. Typical constraints are scope, time, and budget. The secondary—and more ambitious—challenge is to optimize the allocation and integration of inputs necessary to meet pre-defined objectives.
