 PROJECT LIFE CYCLE (Example)
• A project occurs step by step to define the product or
service, in a so called “progressive elaboration” process.
• for instance, the development of a chemical processing
plant begins with the process engineering to define the
characteristics of the process, and ends with the final
assembly.

 PROJECT LIFE CYCLE (Example)
• In aerospace industry, projects are divided in milestones
(M1, M3, M5, M7, M9, M11) corresponding to a “state” of
the aircraft.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT PROCESS GROUPS

• The FIVE Process Groups are shown in terms of the level of interaction
over the lifespan of the project
• If the project is divided into phases each of the Five Process Groups comes
into play in during each phase
