          | SummaryManaging a project is different from managing a production facility, 
              or other established on-going organization. Differences are found 
              in the project life cycle, substantial changes in the level-of-effort 
              required at different periods in the project life cycle and the 
              consequent difficulties of exercising control. Project management 
              is not difficult to understand but depending on the nature and circumstances 
              of the project, success may be difficult to achieve. The key is 
              thorough and early planning to provide the basis for sound execution.
