When a project management plan has been created, project managers are challenged

with ensuring that project work is completed as specified and that all project

requirements are met as the work is executed. In order to accomplish this, project

managers monitor and control project deliverables, assess the project progress and

performance and manage the project scope.

During project execution, project managers ensure that project work is completed as

specified in the project management plan and according to project requirements. This

process of directing and managing project work requires project managers to take on a

series of responsibilities and to exhibit attention to detail, constant communication and

leadership among several other characteristics.

This module will cover:

Monitoring the status of project activities.

Control of project and changes to project baselines.
