We PLAN It All

This stage is where the team singles out all the work to be done. It’s an ongoing activity almost to the end of the project. The main priority, during phase one, is to plan time, costs, and resources for the project. Based on those requirements the team is developing the strategy that has to be followed. 

 This is also known as scope management. Another important stage that has to be prepared is a work breakdown structure, a checklist that divides all the necessary work into smaller more functional categories.   As soon as the budget, schedule, and work have been defined the project is almost ready to begin. The next step of this really important process is risk management. At this point, the team should examine all the potential threats for the project and come up with solid solutions.

Finally, a communication plan is, also, necessary as it will establish an efficient information flow between the project stakeholders.
