What are project management tools
in Volume 1?
The 'Project Management Tools' in Volume1 are a few of the
many tools designed to provide guidance for managing and
achieving a successful transport decision-making process.
The four broad phases involved in implementing project
management are summarised on this page. These phases are
outlined in detail in Section 2 of Volume 1. In summary these
are:
(A) Scoping: is the initial stage of planning a project,
where the whole decision-making process is mapped out by
the project manager and the decision-making authority/
organisation;
(B) Establish core team: is the identification of
suitable individuals to form a project management team, that
agree the decision-making process, the procedures to be
utilised and the resources required;
(C) Detailed preparation: is the phase where
detailed consideration is given to preparing specific plans/
strategies and understanding potential risks and barriers; and
(D) Running the project: is the active phase of
management within the running of the project.
