For ease of understanding, the material is presented in this sequence:
• Determine Context • Capture Existing and Proposed Value Streams • Define Requirements • Collect Data and Information • Perform Analysis • Apply Tools and Techniques for Solutions • Make Recommendations • Plan and Execute for Results
Project managers have many responsibilities. One of these responsibilities is to understand the environment in which their projects will occur.
