Introduction
• What is Project?– A project is a set of inter-related activities which are initiated to
achieve an objective. As soon as the objective is achieved the project is deemed to be over.
– A project is not an objective in itself (it has an objective), nor is it the end-result (It results into something)
– It has a definite beginning and a definite end• How does MS Project help?
– Manage Schedule, Resources, cost– Easy tracking and update
• Focus of this session– Project schedule creation and tracking
