Project management is about planning, controlling, and making decisions about projects.
Projects have a definite beginning and end.
Project management uses tools and techniques to manage the project so that it meets the requirements, is completed on time, within budget and to the required quality.
With all projects, there will be the risk that something will not go according to plan.
Examples of risk include:
• delays in recruitment of suitable staff
• computer breakdowns
• major disruptions in community e.g funerals
• lack of cooperation from other key stakeholders
• weather, wet season, cyclones
• poorly designed model of service delivery
• inadequate funding.
Writing a submission for funding can be overwhelming, time consuming, and at times, an unrewarding process (if unsuccessful) for an organisation.
Prior to writing the submission, the organisation should consider the following:
• What is the project?
• How much money is needed?
• Can the organisation’s current budget cover any of the costs?
• Does the organisation have enough staff members to effectively manage the project?
• Do we have enough time, expertise and commitment to write the submission?
• Do we have access to expertise in submission writing that can assist, if needed?
