What is a Project? What makes projects different? The Five characteristics of a project.

Project:

A project is a temporary organization that is created for a purpose of delivering one or more business products according to the agreed Business Case.


Five characteristics of a project: 

Change(Project introduces new things)

Temporary(Has a definite start and end date. The maintenance of the project is considered business as usual) 

Cross- functional (Involves people from different fields)

Unique (Two identical projects are never done.  If identical projects are done then it is a process and part of business as usual)

Uncertainity (Change + Unique = Uncertinity)
