What is a Project?
12
Project Attributes
• A project:
– Is temporary
– Has a unique purpose (i.e. to create a unique product,
service, or result)
– Is developed using progressive elaboration
– Requires resources, often from various areas
• Resources include people, hardware, software, finances, time etc.
– Should have a primary customer or sponsor
• The project sponsor usually provides the direction and funding for
the project
– Involves uncertainty
• Because every project is unique, it is sometimes difficult to define
its objectives clearly, estimate how long it will take to complete,
or determine how much it will cost.
13
• Temporary:
– means that every project has a definite beginning
and a definite end. The end is reached when the
project’s objectives have been achieved, or it
becomes clear that the project objectives will not
or cannot be met.
– Temporary does not necessarily mean short in
duration, however the duration is finite.
• Projects can be large or small.
14
• Unique purpose: A project creates unique
deliverables, which are products, services or results.
Projects can create:
– A product or artifact that is produced, is quantifiable, and
can be either an end item in itself or a component item.
– A capability to perform a service, such as business
functions supporting production or distribution.
– A result, such as outcomes or documents. For example, a
research project develops knowledge that can be used to
determine whether or not a trend is present or a new
process will benefit society.
15
• Progressive Elaboration
– A characteristic of projects that accompanies the
concepts of temporary and unique.
– It means developing in steps, and continuing by
increments. e.g. The project scope will be broadly
described early in the project and made more explicit
and detailed as the project team develops a better and
more complete understanding of the objectives and
deliverables.
16
• Projects and operations share many of the
following characteristics:
– Performed by people
– Constrained by limited resources
– Planned, executed and controlled
17
Project Constraints
• Every project is constrained in different ways, often by its scope, time,
and cost goals.
• These limitations are sometimes referred to in project management as
the triple constraint.
– Scope: What work will be done as part of the project? What unique product, service,
or result does the customer or sponsor expect from the project? How will the scope
be verified?
– Time: How long should it take to complete the project? What is the
project’s schedule? How will the team track actual schedule
performance? Who can approve changes to the schedule?
– Cost: What should it cost to complete the project? What is the
project’s budget? How will costs be tracked? Who can authorize
changes to the budget?

Framework for Project Management
21
Project Stakeholders
• Stakeholders are the people involved in or affected by
project activities,
– include
• the project sponsor,
• project manager
• project team,
• support staff,
• customers,
• users,
• suppliers, and
• opponents of the project.
• These stakeholders often have very different needs and
expectations.

Project Management Knowledge Areas:
• Project management knowledge areas describe the key
competencies that project managers must develop.

– Project Integration Management
– Project Scope Management
– Project Time Management

24
• 4 core knowledge areas lead to specific project
objectives (scope, time, cost, and quality)
• 4 facilitating knowledge areas are the means through
which the project objectives are achieved (human
resources, communication, risk, and procurement
management
• 1 knowledge area (project integration management)
affects and is affected by all of the other knowledge
areas
• All knowledge areas are important!
25
Project Integration Management
• Describes the processes and activities that integrate the
various elements of project management, which are
identified, defined, combined, unified and coordinated
within the Project Management Process Groups. It consists
of the following project management processes:
– Develop Project Charter
