Project Management Implementation

Project Management

Today's organizations implement strategy through projects. Whether your organization manufactures products or provides services, or provides a combination of the two, projects play an integral part of development and delivery of the final product. The principle is the same even for internal projects, whether IT implementations or a continuous improvement initiative on the manufacturing floor. Vitually every aspect of doing business relies on projects.

It was only a few short years ago that organizations that exercised formal project management had the competitive upper hand. Today, most companies require project management simply to maintain the status quo in the sea of competitors. Any way you look at it, companies today must be competent in project management. Project management provides the competence necessary to better manage projects.

While there is no way to guarantee that implementing project management will lead to every project delivered within the budget, time and scope targets, it is a fact that formal project management does increase the overall likelihood [with all other factors being equal] that a higher percentage of projects will be delivered within budget, time and scope targets. At the end of the day, managing projects better translates into competitiveness and ultimately to fewer failed projects, reduced costs and increased profits.
