Abstract

Task administration is the procedure through which work is instated, arranged, executed, and controlled by a group to accomplish an objective. Since project management activities are different from normal business activities that are conducted every day, project management calls for special technical and management skills amongst team members. The successful completion of a project depends largely on systems engineering and the management of various programs. Systems engineering refers to an interdisciplinary approach that facilitates the realization and success of complex systems. The purpose of system engineering is to, therefore, influence the whole system through various cohesive subsystems. The principles of system engineering are synonymous with most characteristics of project management. System engineering is, therefore, applicable to advance project management. This paper looks at the application of system engineering to project management.
