Project Life Cycle:

based on my understanding, ...PLC is a process of developing a project which start from a beginning and will reach it's end. In this end stage, the project is declared as completed or done..

basic activities in PLC are divided into :

1) initiation

this step is like a brainstorming phase...all ideas, possibility and the feasibility of the project is determined. every detail of the discussion is then being recorded in a document called proj. charter.

2) planning

dlm stage in pula, ada 2 keywords yg penting iaitu OUTPUT n DELIVERABLE
di stage ini, WBS and Gantt Chart akan dihasilkan.














3) executing / controlling
4) closing

mcm ni kot nak wat proj. charter
