Six Essential Elements of a Successful Project Plan

Projects that fail to deliver the expected results on time and on budget are a huge black hole for costs in many organizations. You know the results of poor project planning: Outputs are delayed or riddled with defects, people have to scramble to finish, project deliverables are cut to make the deadline, and customers are dissatisfied.
