project management
"Project Management is the process by
which projects are defined, planned, monitored, controlled
and delivered such that the agreed benefits are realised.
Projects are unique, transient endeavours undertaken
to achieve a desired outcome. Projects bring about change
and project management is recognised as the most efficient
way of managing such change."
