520    "The application of projects in various organizational 
       settings and for multiple purposes is accelerating at a 
       rapid pace. Increasingly public and private sector 
       institutions and enterprises appreciate the value of 
       projects to render services and products on time, within 
       budget and according to quality specifications. The 
       ultimate success of projects is, however, dependent on the
       professional expertise of dedicated support staff. The 
       role and responsibilities of project administrators are 
       therefore rapidly growing to establish administrative 
       support structures, systems and processes, as well as 
       adequate project controls, document management, and 
       stakeholder communication. Project host organizations, 
       project managers and governance bodies, such as steering 
       committees, need to be strongly supported to ensure that 
       the hands of key role-players are strengthened through 
       accurate record-keeping, archival services, project 
       management information systems, control systems, and team 
       support. For this purpose, organizational arrangements 
       such as project management units, project support offices,
       and project management offices are established to 
       facilitate institutional memory and to embed the 
       principles of a learning organization as far as project 
       best practices are concerned. The body of knowledge of 
       Project Management is also highly dynamic and is expanding
       to incorporate the exciting world of project support 
       services. The purpose of this publication is to provide an
       overview of the nature of project support services with 
       particular reference to the roles and responsibilities of 
       project administrators. The publication covers the 
       following key areas: the fundamentals of project 
       management including concepts, principles, life cycle 
       phases, PMBOK, and methodologies; the nature of project 
       support services, including the typical job profile and 
       responsibilities of project administrators; support 
       through organizational and project governance 
       arrangements; project planning support; project controls, 
       reviews, and reporting support; and project team support 
       and self-management. This publication is a must-read for 
       project practitioners in the field of project support 
       services and business administration, and also serves as 
       an invaluable text book to train project support staff. 
       Various self-assessment exercises and practical examples 
       are included to aid this purpose"--|cProvided by
