Conclusion

-More time and cost should be spend in Planning Phase to avoid problems in

later stages.

-Resource allocation in definition need to be reconsider in Planning phase.

-Through out project life cycle to make any decision always project objective

and definition will be center of attention.

-Once project starts dedicated team has to monitor project performance for cost

and schedule evaluation periodically and if require have to revise time phased

schedule.

-Based on status report and performance indices required actions has to be

taken like crashing or scope creep.
