1. The project review: what, when, who, why?

Project teams are the norm in business. The project is divided into phases, each with its own specific objectives, so that the project evolves in a controlled manner. The project team, tasked by the company with bringing the project to fruition, must report back at certain key dates ("milestones"), providing elements (the "deliverables") showing the project's progress.

Generally speaking, projects are divided into 5 phases:

• Analysis;

• Conceptualization ;

• Definition;

• Validation ;

• Communication.

At the start of the project, at each phase milestone, and at the end of the project, the project manager and his team schedule a project review.
