During this assignment I am going to describe different tools and methodologies that are available to support the project manager. As well as talking about project management methodologies, in this task I will be comparing PRINCE2 with another methodology. In this assignment I will also speak about the tools used in project management such as Gantt charts and PERT charts. Another key factor in my assignment which I will be looking at is project management software. I will also describe typical phases of a project life cycle.
Methodology
methodology is a system made up of principles or rules which will be used for specific methods to carry out a problem. methodology is not a formula but a set of practices. Another way to describe methodology is just a way to get something done, for example in order to make a cup of tea, to a certain extent you need a methodology to be successful in making it, otherwise it simply will not work.
Project Management
Project management is planning, organising and managing resources. A project manager must monitor the time while undertaking the project as they do not want to be behind schedule. The project manager must also monitor their resources such as money.
