The success of a project depends on the management of a project. Managing a project is not an easy task, most of the time it’s a challenging job for the related parties. At the time of working with a project of government/ public or private, you may find acronyms and abbreviations of different key points that are very much confusing in nature. To reduce your confusion I have tried to combine commonly used and make a list of project management acronyms. Hope this will be helpful for the students of finance who have an interest in project management and any other parties related to a project (public or private).
