This document provides an overview of the project management framework, including the five process groups: initiating, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and closing. It describes the key purposes and processes within each group. For initiating, the purpose is to align stakeholder expectations with the project purpose. Planning creates the project management plan and subsidiary plans. Executing completes the work defined in the plans. Monitoring and controlling tracks and reviews progress.

Exam Tip.
For the exam assume that:
 The project management plan and subsidiary plans are complete and realistic
 You measure the project against defined metrics to determine how well the project is
performing
 You implement corrective actions for any variances
 If there are deviations from the project management plan, that is the responsibility of
the project manager, and the Project manager is responsible for correcting those
deviations without issuing a change request. CRs should be used only as a last resort in this
instance.
