Project integration management involves coordinating all aspects of a project to achieve the project's goals. It includes processes to develop the project charter and project management plan, direct and manage project execution, monitor and control project work, perform integrated change control, and close out the project or phase.

will benefit from the realization of outputs.
• Indicators should be specific in terms of
Quality (What?) -Q
Quantity (how much?) -Q
Time (when, how long?) -T
Target Group (who?) -T
Place (where?) -P
