Understanding the Project Management Methodologies

The project methodology is determined by the type of organization and the desired outcomes, such as sequential versus iterative. As the project manager, it is your responsibility to determine what project methodology is best suited for the project you chose in Unit 1.

For this discussion, evaluate two project methodologies and include the following in your initial post:

Definition of the methodology.
Phases of the methodology.
Required tools, techniques, and documents used in each phase.
Expected outcomes of each phase.
Discussion and Response Guidelines
Regarding discussions in this course, you are encouraged to initially post early in the unit for each discussion, to allow time for peers to respond.

Responding over multiple days will help stimulate a lively discussion.
