This guidebook, produced by a commercial company specialising in project management tools, provides a practical approach to what many consider a complex process: the management of projects. The document is designed to simplify the management processes required to manage a project successfully from end to end. It defines project management in simple terms and provides the reader with all of the documentation tools required to make projects a success.
The authors detail how to initiate, plan, execute and close a project whilst managing time, cost, quality, staff, suppliers, equipment and customers. The four project management phases are outlined and an explanation of which document templates to use within each phase to complete a project successfully is provided.
This guidebook is suitable for all project sizes, types and industries. A standardized approach to achieving success is provided for small, medium or large projects.
