Example text

Not being able to get enough of the required resources creates a very difficult situation for the project team. All of these constraints create pressure for the team. They must meet the project objectives within the start and end date window, within the budget, and within any other constraints such as the availability of people or building access on a weekend. The team has to do the work with the resources that are available. The next characteristic of projects is that they are performed by people.

Suppose, for example, that the project is to install the communications system for all the buildings at the Olympics. Completing the system 2 weeks after the start of the games is not merely unacceptable; it is pretty well useless. So each situation must be analyzed before any decisions concerning date changes can be made. The project team is a group of people, representing different skills and specialties, pulled together specifically to produce the deliverable by the required date. Thus, we have a temporary endeavor that occurs between the start date and the due date.

Plans for marketing would be developed, maybe as part of the project, or sometimes in parallel with the project, and marketing materials would be prepared. Everyone involved would be trained, and much of the training might have also been part of the project. This constituted a solid project, which was generally considered to be very interesting, and which had all the features and problems discussed so far for projects. If we look at a similar project today, we could again decide to offer a new service that has been identified as having potential for bringing value to customers and revenue for the company.
