Abstract or Description

The history of Project Management (PM) is quite rich and extensive, but PM has gained a great deal of attention among Information Technology (IT) practitioners in recent years. PM has been with us since the beginning of civilization and finds its origins back as far as the building of the Egyptian Pyramids and the Great Wall of China. It has now found its way into various disciplines including Construction, Engineering, and Operations Management. PM is looked upon by these disciplines as one of their standard tools, and has found the use of PM as an integral part to their success.
