the basic assumptions of PM…
1. Sound understanding of project purpose, scope and outcomes during the initiation phase will ensure effective project execution.
2. Collectively the analysis of risk, cash-flow, resource intensiveness, and capital budgeting should enable accurate decision-making on the viability of any project.

4. Effective project execution is dependent on accurate planning and constant evaluation.
5. Summative evaluation in the form of a project closure report is only valuable if learning during the project is internalised.
6. Projects are executed by people, thus interpersonal skills is crucial in effective delivery of any project.
