Project Manager

The Project Manager (PM) is responsible for running the day-to-day of the project on behalf of the Project Board. The PM is the “eyes and ears” of the project ensuring that products are delivered as planned in the Business Case in terms of time, cost, scope, quality, risk and  benefits to stakeholders.

The Project Manager manages most of the project processes (outlined in Lesson 6) aside from Directing a Project and Managing Product Delivery. Within these processes the PM oversees the planning, time and people management, problem-solving, dispute management and negotiation, communication and more.

The PM is responsible for preparing key project documents including all documents that are part of the Project Initiation Documentation, work packages, plans, and reports.
