What is a Project?
A project is a temporary endeavor, having a defined beginning and end, undertaken to meet particular goals and objectives, usually to bring about beneficial change or added value.
The temporary nature of projects stands in contrast to business as usual (or operations), which are repetitive, permanent or semi-permanent functional work to produce products or services.
In practice, the management of these two systems is often found to be quite different, and as such requires the development of distinct technical skills and the adoption of separate management.

Project Design
The Big Idea
•Can be the culmination of many years of thinking about a particular issue
•Often comes from one leader
•The role of project manager is to track for clear drivers
•What is the need for the project?
•Who will benefit?
•Why should this organisation run the project?
•Who are the partners we should recruit to help deliver the project?
•How much will the project cost?
