Project management involves temporary work to create a unique product or service. It has unique purposes and objectives, uses continuous processes, and requires resources from various areas. Time is the most challenging factor as it has little flexibility and the project must be completed within the planned timeframe. A work breakdown structure breaks work down into smaller, more manageable components and must account for 100% of the work.
