A project is an undertaking of limited duration in time with a defined outcome. Project management then is the ensemble of activities to plan and follow the execution of a project.

To keep control over the project from the beginning of the project all the way to its natural conclusion, a project manager uses a number of techniques: [project planning]?, earned value, risk management, Scheduling?, [Process Improvement]?.

There are a number of guiding techniques that have been developed over the years that can be used to formally specify exactly how the project will be managed. These include the [Project Managers Body of Knowledge]? (PMBOK), and such idears as the [Personal Software Process]? (PSP), and the [Team Software Process]? (TSP). These techniques attempt to standardize the practices of the development team making them easier to predict and manage as well as track.
