Project Management Manual

The purpose of the Department of Engineering and Department of Public Works Project Management Manual (PMM) is to document the Project Management System used to manage Public Works projects within the City of Saint Charles. The entire Project Management System encompasses the administration, personnel, procedures, documents, tools, standards, and activities that are undertaken to manage projects in both Departments, but this manual is intended to be the controlling document for the entire system. It formalizes a variety of formal and informal procedures that have been used by the Departments and incorporates new practices based on industry standards for project management. The PMM describes in broad terms, the project management process for all projects, and the details of management roles and responsibilities of staff involved with the project.
