Project Management Organizations Is The Ultimate Resource For Several Network Operations: Case Study Of Construction Project

Abstract

Project management is the discipline of planning, organizing, securing and managing resources to bring about the successful
completion of specific project goals and objectives. It is sometimes conflated with program management, however technically that
is actually a higher level construction. Traditionally, human undertaking projects need to be performed and delivered under these
constraints: “scope”, “time”, and “cost”. These three constraints (The Project Management Triangle) are often competing
constraints: increased scope usually means increased time and increased cost, a tight time constraint could mean increased costs
and reduced scope, and a tight budget could mean increased time and reduced scope. A further refinement of the constraints
separates product "quality" or "performance" from scope, and turns quality into a fourth constraint.
The primary challenge of project management therefore is to achieve all of the engineering project goals and objectives while
honoring the preconceived typical project constraints. The secondary (and more ambitious) challenge is to optimize the allocation
and integration of inputs necessary to meet pre-defined objectives. The management of construction projects hence requires
knowledge of modern management as well as an understanding of the design and construction process. This will be aptly
portrayed in the case study of this paper.
