Why Project Management?

Through this course, I have come to understand that project management is associated with every single activities in real life and we hardly even recognise it. Moreover, project management is a growing field used widely by organisation and businesses. Every person can manage their resources, cost and time resources adequately by knowing all the fundamentals of project management. By proper utilising resources, cost and time at optimum level that in order to be a good project manager one needs to utilize resources and time to their optimum level leads to good quality projects, we can become good project manager and that is why there is need to study project management. I did my Batchelor of technology in mechanical and in industrial training in production company project management plays essential role like raw material arrangement, labour management, estimating investment and profit.

During my final year of graduation, when I was intern in production company as trainee. I was working on a group project. Due to different shifts, we wasted a month.

Group was working on implementing control panels of VMC machines project. Just before two months of due date, we selected our team leader and then divided our work and responsibilities. When we finished our project and went to our mentor be taking all the project documents and by saying all work he was really glad with our work, successful project and management.
