Overview: From time to time, various attempts have been made to enunciate 'Principles and Practices' of project management. However, there appears to be no consensus on either the principles or the practices of 'acceptable' project management, nor does there appear to be much documentation of any 'theories' of project management either supporting these principles and practices or derived from them. A successful project management process relies on two activities - planning first, and then doing. These two sequential activities form the basis of every project life-cycle, and can be expanded to suit the control requirements of every type of project in every area of project management application. The paper describes the successful implementation of the project management.The project life-cycle, characterized by a series of 'milestones' determines when the project starts, the 'control gates' through which it must pass, and when the project is finished.
