Programme Have Significant Variations in Their Meaning in Different Geographical Areas

Project management is the planned and organized effort to accomplish a specific goal, such as building construction or new computer system implementation. It involves developing a project plan that defines goals and objectives, identifies tasks and resources needed, and establishes budgets and timelines. Project management also includes implementing the project plan and controlling performance relative to the plan, taking recovery actions when needed. Projects typically progress through phases like feasibility, definition, planning, implementation, evaluation, and support.

Project management is a carefully planned and organized effort to accomplish a specific (and usually) one-time objective, for example,

construct a building or implement a major new computer system. Project management includes developing a project plan, which includes defining and confirming the project goals and objectives, identifying tasks and how goals will be achieved, quantifying the resources needed, and determining budgets and timelines for completion. It also includes managing the implementation of the project plan, along with operating regular 'controls' to ensure that there is accurate and objective information on 'performance' relative to the plan, and the mechanisms to implement recovery actions where necessary. Projects usually follow major phases or stages (with various titles for these), including feasibility, definition, project planning, implementation, evaluation and support/maintenance. (Program planning is usually of a broader scope than project planning, but not always - note: the terms program and programme have significant variations in their meaning in different geographical areas, e.g. Europe and USA.)
