Five foundational process groups
Initiating -> planning -> executing -> monitoring and controlling -> closing
Initiating
Made up of two processes - develop project charter and identify stakeholders
Planning
Largest process group
Order is determined by how the outputs are used
Executing
Where work actually gets carried out
Monitor and control
Touch every process area
Makes sure plan is working and if not adjust
Two inputs - planned and result
Closing
Close project or phase
Files, lessons learned and archives will help future projects
