the information about the project and the factors which have an impact n the project. It also defines the roles andresponsibilities . In the beginning the project looks simpler but as we proceed in the project, it gets complex and tounderstand this complexities a project management plan is required. It has five phased as follows-Project Conception- In the first stage the concept of the project is stated by the project manager(Stark,2105). It gives a brief idea about what the project is all about and also it carefully examines thefactors which determine whether the project will turn out profitable or not. It also gives a realistic ideaabout the project in the real life. All the feasibility tests are done during this stage only afterconceptualization only the entire project can be worked out. As without the actual idea of the plan.Project Planning- A project planning stage, the draft plan is drafted and the entire project plan will goaccordingly. Planning is the essential stage of the project management plan as it drafts the background ofactivities to be performed as this is the base of the project and the team members. The plan is developedwhich considers all the factors affecting the project. Ch includes the cost, duration, time taken, quality ofwork, risk involved and the resources utilized (Hwang, 2014). In the planning phases itself all the risksassociated with the project are clearly identified and the necessary steps are taken to work on the project. Atthis itself, the project manager should prioritize the project and accordingly allocate the budget anddefining the necessary resources required for doing the same.Project Execution- For executing the project firstly a project team is formed and the work is dividedamong the team members and they are informed about their responsibilities and the main work of executiondepends on them when the responsibilities are identified then only they can perform the work properly.According to the efficiencies of the workers and employees the wok is allocated two them as if properallocation is not done then the work may not be performance according to the set standards and will notdeliver the appropriate quality results.. A project is considered good for execution if it has followed theplan drafted before. This phase allows us to know the if the project will be successful or not.Project Control- In this stage, when the work is getting executed it is the responsibility of the projectmanager to check whether the work is performed according to the set objectives or not. If not performedaccordingly, then the necessary steps are taken to monitor the work and taking various corrective measuresif it is not according to the scheduled plan (Kerzner, 2013). As the standards are set and the actual work isallocated and performed then the actual work is compared to the standard work and the deviations areknown and the corrective measures are taken to control the same. The main factors are the time taken tocomplete the work and the cost involved in doing the project. If changes are necessary then actions aretaken accordingly like the schedule can be changed.Illustration 1: Project Management Phases
