2.0 Project Life Cycle and Organization

Projects and project management are carried out in an environment broader than that of the project itself. The project management team must understand this broader context so it can select the life cycle phases, processes, and tools and techniques that appropriately fit the project. This chapter describes some key aspects of the project management context. The topics included here are:

2.1 The Project Life Cycle

2.2 Project Stakeholders

2.3 Organizational Influences
