Summary: A project is an effort to attain defined goals, consisting of a series of interrelated activities that are technically planned and include the systematic utilisation of resources over time. A project's success is determined by its performance. This makes project management a difficult field for planners, policymakers, and business managers in a competitive and globalised market. Knowledge of the theory and practise of project management is necessary for the development of commercial and public administration managers. It is consequently a required course in Management, Engineering, Technology, Commerce, Accounting, and other professional programmes. The purpose of this book is to expose researchers and practitioners in these disciplines to a comprehensive range of challenges and applications in project environments and to provide managers with a knowledge of project management's fundamental principles and practises. The book covers a wide range of theoretical and applied aspects of project management, including project planning, project formulation, preparation of detailed project report, project appraisal, organisation for project, project implementation, monitoring and control of activities, project evaluation, project review, etc., in simple language supported by illustrations. In the book, examples, review questions, exercises, and cases have been included to give essential pedagogical support.
