Project Management Overview -1
An Overview of Project Management
To begin, a project is a multitask job that has performance, time, cost, and scope
requirements and that is done only one time.
A project should have definite starting and ending points (time), a budget (cost), a
clearly defined scope-or magnitude-of work to be done, and specific performance
requirements that must be met, referred to as PCTS targets.
Dr. J. M. Juran, the quality guru, also defines a project as a problem scheduled for
solution.
In US it is estimated that 50% of the projects developed usually have there targets
changed (i.e. they are late or over spent). 33% of the projects are cancelled. In 1994 US
has spend $140 billion on cancelled and over budgeted projects.

Project Management Overview -1
What is Project management
Project management is the planning, scheduling, and controlling of project activities to
meet project objectives.
The major objectives that must be met include performance, cost, and time goals, while
at the same time you control or maintain the scope of the project at the correct level.
The four objectives are related to each other by the following equation
Cost = f(P, T, S)
As the P and S increases the Cost of the project increases
The relation between T and Cost is not linear.
