What is a “Project”?
• Temporary - Every project has a beginning and an end. Project duration is finite.
• Unique - The product or service is different from other products and services.
A temporary endeavor undertaken to create a uniqueproduct or service. A means to respond to those
objectives that cannot be addressed within the organization’s normal operational limits.
