We believe this is an important part of delivering the best in project management to our clients. Project Management Life Cycles Project managers divide projects into several project phases in order to maintain control, and collectively, these project phases make up the project life cycle. This life cycle includes the Initiating Phase, Planning Phase, Executing Phase, Controlling Phase, and Closing Phase. Englert and Associates uses are completely compatible. Our project managers recognize the Systems Development Life Cycle, work with it constantly, and support it.
Immature organizations follow little planning and practice poor project management.
Deadlines and cost estimates are frequently exceeded because they are based on unrealistic estimates. When hard deadlines are imposed, the true goal of the project may be compromised in the rush to meet an unrealistic deadline. When a project is completed, there is little data collection, analysis, or follow up to determine if the project was successful or what should be done for continual improvement. Mature businesses possess an organization-wide ability to develop successful projects on schedule and on budget. Overall goals are communicated throughout the organization.
