Integrated Project Management

Summary

The project must be broken down into work packages. The project manager accomplishes work breakdown with the help of every available resource. As the work packages are identified, the skills needed for them become apparent, and the project manager can recruit team members with these skills—after first conferring with their supervisors for help in identifying the best prospects for the team. Recruitment is done on a person-to-person basis, with the project manager explaining the IPM process to each recruit.
