What is Project Management?
Introduction
- A definition for project:
- “A project is a sequence of unique, complex, and connected activities having one goal or purpose and that must be completed by specific time, within budget, and according to specification.” Wysocki, Beck, and Crane
- As applied to information systems, note the following:
- A system development methodology, such as FAST, defines a sequence of activities, mandatory and optional.
- Every system development project is unique; that is, it is different from every system development project which preceded it.
- The activities that comprise systems development are relatively complex.
