Project Management by Decision™

Redefining Project Management by Decision Governance™

​

For decades, Project Management has evolved through increasingly sophisticated methodologies, standards, and best practices. Yet one fundamental question has remained largely unexplored:

Who governs the quality of the decisions that determine a project's future?

​

Project Management by Decision™ introduces a new perspective: projects are not merely collections of tasks, schedules, and deliverables. They are structured trajectories of interconnected decisions, where every approval, investment, scope change, and strategic choice shapes all subsequent decisions—and ultimately determines project success.

​

Rather than replacing PMI®, PRINCE2®, Agile, or other established methodologies, this book introduces a complementary governance layer: Decision Governance™. Its purpose is to engineer, evaluate, govern, and continuously monitor the quality of critical project decisions before their consequences become irreversible.

​

Built upon the scientific foundations of Decision Engineering™, this work proposes a fundamental redefinition of the project itself and presents a new way of understanding Project Management—one where successful execution is the consequence of high-quality decisions.

​

Projects are executed through activities. They succeed through decisions.
