A project is a temporary organization created to produce a unique result, the like of which the participants of this organization have never received before in the given conditions. The uniqueness of a project creates difficulties for all its participants-it is not possible to simply repeat past success, the project is always implemented under conditions of increased uncertainty. Even when it comes to typical activities, they must be implemented each time under new conditions and with new participants, and therefore will require new approaches, actions and knowledge. A project is different from an ordinary activity. Project management requires special approaches and tools designed to reduce risk and uncertainty.
