Project Constraints
A project has to deliver on time,
to a high level of quality within
some defined cost, and to some
agreed scope.
It can be very difficult for a
project manager to have these
in balance. It is challenging to
say the least.

Poor Planning
Poor project planning /
estimation is often due to a lack
of time or experience on behalf
of the project manager.

RisksFourth are the risks that might
occur.
These distract us as we need to
keep an eye on them, and some
of these we need to mitigate
against.

conspires to make the initial
plan, the right plan, are the
inevitable set of change
requests, formal or informal, that
arise on projects.
