What is a Project?
Project is an excellent opportunity for organizations and individuals to achieve their business and non-business objectives more efficiently through implementing change. Projects help us make desired changes in an organized manner and reduce the probability of failure.
Projects differ from other types of work (e.g., process, task, procedure). Meanwhile, in the broadest sense, a project is defined as a specific, finite activity that produces a visible and measurable result under specific preset requirements.
It attempts to implement desired change in an environment in a controlled way. By using projects, we can plan and do our activities, for example:

• 
  Build a garage.
  

• 
  Run a marketing campaign.
  

• 
  Develop a website.
  

• 
  Organize a party.
  

• 
  Go on vacation.
  

• 
  Graduate a university with honors or whatever else we may wish to do.
  

A project is a temporary, unique, and progressive attempt to produce a tangible or intangible result (a unique product, service, benefit, competitive advantage, etc.). It usually includes a series of interrelated tasks planned for execution over a fixed period and within specific requirements and limitations such as cost, quality, performance, etc.
The Key Characteristics of a Project
As follows from the given definition, any project features these characteristics:

• 
  Temporary. This fundamental characteristic means every project has a finite start and end. The start is when the project is initiated, and its concept is developed. The end is reached when all project objectives have been met.
  

• 
  Unique Deliverable(s). Any project aims to produce some deliverable(s) which can be a product, service, or another result. Deliverables should address a problem or need to be analyzed before the project start.
  

• 
  Progressive Elaboration. With the progress of a project, continuous investigation and improvement become available, allowing more accurate and comprehensive plans.
