Project management adds value by improving the execution of strategy through repeatable, reliable performance and standardisation. It brings integration of resources within an organisation through the removal of silos and facilitates improved communication and collaboration. It also reveals opportunities for efficiency, savings and improved quality through the project life cycle.
