2. What is a Project Life Cycle?
► The span of time from the project start to
the end is called the project life cycle.
INTRODUCTION
3. What are Examples of Project Life Cycles?
► The PMI (Project Management Institute) have defined common five
phases which come together to form the project management
lifecycle:
∙ Initiating: Defining what needs to be done
∙ Planning: Defining how to do what needs to be done
∙ Executing: Making a project happen
∙ Monitoring & Controlling: Keeping a project on track
► Closing: Ending a project
4. I. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION
► The purpose of project identification is to develop a preliminary
proposal for the most appropriate set of interventions and course of
action, within specific time and budget frames, to address a specific
development goal in a particular region or setting.
What is the purpose of project identification?
5. What does Identification involve?
►Identification involves:
∙ a review of alternative approaches or options for addressing
a set of development problems and opportunities;
∙ the definition of project objectives and scope of work at the
degree of detail necessary to justify commitment of the
resources for detailed formulation and respective preparatory
studies;
∙ and the identification of the major issues that must be
tackled and the questions to be addressed before a project
based on the concept can be implemented
I. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION
6. What are major steps involved in Identification?
►Major Steps in Identification are follows:
∙ review of the national and sectoral analyses, plans and
priorities of both the government and the potential financing
agency;
∙ social analysis;
∙ stakeholder analysis;
∙ diagnosis and preliminary assessments of technical,
institutional or socio-economic constraints and opportunities;
∙ the definition of clear project objectives and related metrics is
important to focus the discussion;
∙ review of alternative possible solutions or development
strategies;
∙ review and assessment of relevant past and current
development efforts and projects.
I. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION
7. How will you summarize the Findings of Identification?
►Summarizing the Findings of Identification
∙ an explanation of the context in which the investment has been
identified;
