Because priorities, finances and resources may change at any time, it is critical that this process be well-defined and easy to follow. It is also important that its value is understood and supported by corporate leaders and the business organization.
It will be helpful to rank projects against each of these criteria separately and then compile a single ranking that weights each of these criteria against each other. This ranking process is typically used to feed quarterly budget decisions but may be requested at any time.
Managing a project more often than not requires a team of people with skills and abilities that complement each other and help to work towards reaching the goal of the project. The team, along with its project manager are responsible for planning, organising and monitoring project progress. Any project management professional will tell you that every project follows a project life cycle and certain project management steps that bring it from start to finish. Projects are a lot more than simply preparing resources and materials and require a deeper element of management.
Resources are maximised: Both human and financial resources tend to be expensive. Project tracking and project risk management ensure that all resources are used efficiently and are accounted for economically.Helps to manage integration: Projects that are completed within an organisation are generally integrated with wider business processes and systems. Integration forms the value aspect of projects and their management.
