BUS 611 BUS611 Week 1 Discussion 1 What Defines a Project? / Project Planning and Management
What Defines a Project? [CLOs: 1,2]. 1st Post Due by Day 3. A project is temporary, it is unique, and it is progressive (Balakian & Bergmann, 2009, p. 18).
Projects have a defined start and end date; they do not go on forever and do not repeat. Processes that are repetitive are operations, not projects. Projects accomplish something new. While there may be phases or tasks within a project that have been done before, the outcome will be unique. A project is progressively elaborated, meaning that we can expect to learn more as the project progresses and the details of the plan and the requirements may change to meet the needs of the stakeholders.
