Summary

Introduction

Project is a temporary attempt carried out to create a unique product, service, or result (PMI, 2013). Crawford and Nahmias (2010) and Crawford et al (2006) studied the required competencies to prevent scope creep in projects They reported on the study carried out to look at the differences in approach and practice of project, program and change managers as a source for verifying the capabilities required to successfully manage change initiatives. The project’s success means more than just meeting triple constraints, i.e. time, cost and scope This highlights other success dimensions such as the business outcomes, which can be achieved through a proper alignment between the project management process and the organizational strategy (Patanakul & Shenhar, 2012; Shenhar et al, 2000; Morris & Jamieson, 2005). It should be noticed that scope management includes both product and project scope
