A project is defined as a non-routine, one-time effort limited by time, resources, and performance specifications designed to meet customer needs. It also has 2 dimensions: the technical aspects and the sociocultural aspects. The technical aspects include items such as planning, scheduling, resource allocation, and status reports. The sociocultural aspects include items such as leadership, problem solving, teamwork, and negotiation.
