, PART 3: SYSTEMS AND PROCEDURES FOR
PLANNING AND CONTROL.
Chapter 5: Basic Project Planning Techniques.
• Every project is somewhat unique because it is aimed toward an end-
item or result that is in some way unique.
• Because of its uniqueness, basic questions about the project must be
addressed and answered before work can begin.
• Satisfactorily answering these questions so that the project will
achieve its goals is the function of project planning.
• Project management can be broadly divided into two parts namely:
i. In the conception and definition phases, preparing a plan that
specifies the project requirements, work tasks, responsibilities,
schedules, and budgets.
ii. During the execution phase, executing the work in the plan and
tracking progress versus the plan.
