Project Management

Definition

We define Project Management as being -

"A set of applied principles, practices and techniques designed to lead project teams and control a project's SCHEDULE, COST AND PERFORMANCE RISKS resulting in....

.....DELIGHTED CUSTOMERS"

Qualifying Projects

Projects that benefit from our methodology:

	have a purpose
	have a start, an end and an outcome
	bring about permanent change
	will impact on the plans of other people or business units
	cannot be done within the budget or people resources of a group of people that are constantly in touch

Projects can be brief (as short as a couple of weeks) and small (as few as a couple of people doing them).

In those cases, our approach is to treat the Principles checklists. Many of the actions and processes will not need to be done at all, or done only very simply. However, it is useful to check for possible important actions. For example it is always wise to have some sort of PID and plan, no matter how simple the project.
