A project comes to the company through many ways.
By contacts of the Management, By responding to
advertisement, By placing adds in various medium etc.
But there many process before awarding the project the
buyer ask for RFQ-request for proposal. In response the
service provider ( Sales/Marketing )Prepare the proposal
and may be present the solution ( requirements as per our
understanding) at the customers place , negotitae the price
and delivery and sometimes technology and get the PO for
the project ( Project cost and delivery is fixed ). The
cost of the project may be less than the cost negotiated
with the customer.
The mgnt. will decide project manager and in turn he will
aquire the necessary resouces ( keepng in mid the budget )
and kick start the project. The resources may be added
gradually as the project progresses.Based on the
development strategy the PM creates plan, execute , control
and closure of the project.
The delivery manger gets the clearnce from the Project QC
and verifies the deliverables and package and acceptance
from the Customer.The delivery manager will have the
tracking of deliverables to the customer.

the project artifacts.
