Brian Wertz's project management framework involves defining the customer's problem, setting parameters for the project, and creating a project plan. It then focuses on planning and designing the required solution, executing the project plan by delivering and testing the solution, and closing the project by reviewing performance and identifying new problems. The framework emphasizes understanding the customer's needs, agreeing on aims and deliverables, and making continuous recalibrations.
