Project Management: The Book of the Plan

The video tutorial introduces the concept of the 'Book of the Plan' as a comprehensive project management tool. It covers the essential components of a project: the 'what', 'why', and 'how'. The 'what' involves defining the project's scope and specifications, which vary by project type. The 'why' is addressed through the business case and investment appraisal, providing justification for the project. The 'how' includes plans and controls to ensure project delivery and manage risks. Various tools like scheduling charts and resource plans are discussed. The importance of adapting the Book of the Plan to the project's scale is emphasized, ensuring accountability and transparency.
