This document discusses project monitoring and control. It explains that monitoring involves assessing project performance over time through collecting and analyzing numerical and qualitative data. Control involves restoring performance when variances from the project plan are detected. The document outlines different aspects of projects that can be monitored and controlled, including scope, time, costs, quality, and human resources. It provides examples of monitoring and control techniques for each aspect.

8. 1. Monitoring: assessment of performance.
◦ Over time
◦ Both the project and the environment
◦ Numerical or qualitative data
◦ Collection of data, followed by analysis
◦ Trending
2. Control: restoring performance.
◦ Objective is to reduce variance to acceptable levels
◦ Based on the results from monitoring
◦ Formal or informal mechanisms
◦ Several different dimensions of a project can be
controlled
