Project Integration Management

Processes and activities that identify, define, combine, unify, and coordinate project management activities.

Definition

Integration is the project manager's core responsibility, covering the charter, project management plan, directing work, managing knowledge, monitoring work, integrated change control, and closure. It ensures trade-offs among competing objectives are made deliberately.

Example

The project manager weighs a scope change against schedule and budget impacts before taking it to the CCB.

Exam tip

Integration is the only knowledge area that spans all five process groups.
