What is Project Management?
Demystifying this important functional area is at the core of our business. It’s the question we're asked most, “What is project management?” Project Management Institute (PMI), the global governing body for project management and certifications defines project management as: “the use/application of specific knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to deliver something of value to people.” If you are left wondering what that means, allow us to give you some examples. Project Management is all about the controls needed to deliver a project. A project has a definitive beginning and end and should not be confused with operational work that is ongoing. A project for your organization might be streamlining processes, whereas you may have an organizational function which is Process Excellence. This functional group can create projects for delivery. If you are implementing software, transforming your organization to agile, defining your organization's intake of customers, outlining root causes for customer issues, etc. These are all projects, and we have an expert to surpass your expectations.

At its core, project management is about creating a plan and monitoring and controlling scope, time, cost/budget, planning, execution, risk/issue management, amongst other items, to ensure the successful delivery of any project. In essence, if you want a software delivery that looks like “x”, it becomes the package you want to be delivered. Project management is the “bow” of that package, that develops, designs, and tracks the delivery to ensure the package meets customer expectations.
