It outlines the planning phase where the problem statement, objectives, work breakdown structure, risks, assumptions, and skills required are defined. The build-up phase involves scheduling tasks, assigning resources and roles, and estimating costs and budgets. Defining the problem statement upfront is important for project sponsor endorsement. Common reasons for project failure include scope creep, missed deadlines, cost overruns, and poor quality.
