Abstract

In order that a manager ensures the smooth running of all project activities through to a successful conclusion he must use the manpower at his disposal to best effect, commit the financial resources available economically, and meet the necessary time deadlines. This requires a significant effort in planning, the typical plan elements comprising project purpose (objectives); job scope; basis of feasibility; division of responsibilities; responsible personnel; organisation chart; financing arrangements; agreements (contracts); schedule (programme); administrative plans; cost/progress reports/controls; legal, planning and insurance; and implementation of construction.
