Introduction
Project management is a complex process, which includes everything from the definition of scope and objectives of the project to the implementation of the control measures and techniques for evaluating its progress and completion. The project management theories and tools and techniques are not only used for theoretical evaluation but are commonly used in real life projects for achieving higher efficiency. Hence, the present report evaluates and examines the impacts and benefits of implementation of different measures and risk management and project control techniques as adopted and used in a real life project.
