Project Management Body of
Knowledge (PMBOK)
The sum of knowledge within the profession of
project management.
The knowledge of (both published and unpublished)
widely applied, proven traditional practices and
knowledge of less frequently used innovative and
advanced practices.
Project
A Project is a temporary (Start and Stop points)
endeavor undertaken to create a unique
product or service.
Projects are a means for organizations to
respond to those requests that cannot be
addressed within the organization's normal
operational limits.
The objective of a project is to attain the
objective and close the project.
Unique Product/Service/Result
A product or service resulting from a project
may be unique even if the category to which
it belongs is large.
A projects outcome (deliverable) product or
service typically continue even though the
project ends.
The presence of repetitive elements within
project completion does not change the
fundamental uniqueness of the project work.
Progressive Elaboration
Because the product of each project is unique, the
characteristics that distinguish the product or service
must be progressively elaborated.
Progressively means "proceeding in steps; continuing
steadily by increments."
Elaborated means "worked out with care and detail;”
e.g. developed thoroughly.
Progressive elaboration of product characteristics must
be carefully coordinated with proper project scope
definition, particularly if the project is performed
under contract.
Project Management
Project management is the application of
knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to
project activities to meet project
requirements.
• Use of PM knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to lead a project from
start to finish
Project management is accomplished through
the use of the processes such as: initiating,
planning, executing, controlling, and closing.
The project team manages the work of the
projects.
