The document outlines the processes and flow of project management based on the PMBOK Guide 6th Edition. It shows the five process groups of initiating, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and closing. Within each process group are the specific processes like develop project charter, develop project management plan, direct and manage project work, monitor and control project work, and close project or phase. Lines and arrows indicate inputs and outputs between the processes and process groups over the life of a project.
