A program is a group of related projects designed to accomplish a common goal over an extended period
of time.
FIGURE 1.1 Project Life Cycle
1. Defining stage: Specifications of the project are defined; project objectives are established;
teams are formed; major responsibilities are assigned.
2. Planning stage: The level of effort increases, and plans are developed to determine what the
project will entail, when it will be scheduled, whom it will benefit, what quality level should be
maintained, and what the budget will be.
3. Executing stage: A major portion of the project work takes place—both physical and mental.
The physical product is produced (a bridge, a report, a software program). Time, cost, and
specification measures are used for control. Is the project on schedule, on budget, and meeting
specifications? What are the forecasts of each of these measures? What revisions/changes are
necessary?
4. Closing stage: Closing includes three activities: delivering the project product to the customer,
redeploying project resources, and post-project review. Delivery of the project might include
customer training and transferring documents. Redeployment usually involves releasing project
equipment/materials to other projects and finding new assignments for team members. Post-
project reviews include not only assessing performance but also capturing lessons learned.

FIGURE 2.1 Strategic Management Process
The typical sequence of activities of the strategic management process is outlined here; a description of
each activity then follows:
Specific
Measurable
Attainable/Achievable
Realistic/Relevant
Time Bound/Timely
Portfolio – collection of best practices
Implementation Gap - When strategies are not aligned with the project\
- it refers to the document that authorizes the project manager to initiate and make the project,
legal basis siya
- It includes risk limits
