1.2 Definition of the Project Management
Project Management is the sum of all activities such as Planning, organizing ,implementing and controlling a project in order to meet the client’s expectation from start to finish within the planned; budget (The cost of project work directly related to the human and physical resources applied), Performance (The quality of the work being done), period (The schedule that must be met).
Successful project management can be defined as having achieved the project objectives within time, cost and at the desired performance.
This was the definition that has pertained for the past twenty years or so. Today, the definition of project success has been modified to include completion; within the allocated time period, within the budgeted cost, at the proper performance or specification level, with acceptance by the owner, when you can use the owner name as a reference and without changing the corporate culture.
