- non routine tasks involved
- planing is required
- specific objectives are to be met or a specified product is to be created
- the project has pre-determined time span
- work is carried out for someone other than yourself

- work is carried out in several phases
- the resources that are available for use on the project are constrained

Activities covered by the software Project Management
1 - Feasibility Study
This is investigation into whether a prospective proposed application. The probable developmental and operational costs, along with the values of the benefits of the new system are estimated. The study could be part of a strategic planning exercise examining and prioritizing a range of potential software development.
2 - Planning
If the feasibility study produces results which indicate that the proposed project appears viable, then planning of the project can take place. However, for large projects we could not do all the planning right at the beginning. We would formulate outline plan for the whole project and detailed plan for the first stage.
3 - Project Execution
The project now can be executed. The execution of a project often contains design and implementation sub phases. There are following sub steps of Project execution:
- Requirement Analysis
- Specification
- Design
- Coding
- Verification and Validation
- Installation
- User Acceptance
- Implementation
