520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc "Project management incorporates both the people-related and technical requirements necessary for the successful management of engineering projects, as well as the organizational and strategic aspects. Engineering-focused project management centers around the processes that are used to produce, process, and service engineering-based innovation projects from idea through relevant analyses to launch. It also relates innovation to improvements in products, processes, and competitive advantage"--
