Project management brings structure and repeatable practices to organizations. Using project management techniques, organizations can clarify and gain commitment to desired outcomes, and gain effective control of schedules and costs. Using project planning techniques, project managers can make intelligent tradeoffs when available time, resources and money are insufficient to meet desired functionality. Finally, project management allows organizations to monitor and control project execution, reducing "scope creep" and cost/schedule overruns, while at the same time reducing the frustration and burnout that afflict many project team members.
