Effective project management can be defined in terms of overall planning, organisation and control of corporate resources to deliver a project within the constraints of time, cost and performance. A few years ago, project management was confined to large defence contractors and construction companies. Today, principles of project management are being applied in diverse industries and organisations such as defence, construction, pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, banking, the national health service, central and local governments. There is great demand in organisations for project managers who are capable of delivering projects that range from small to large investments and with life spans of several months or indeed years.
