Project Planning and Management

Preservation project planning and development refers to the design and development of a comprehensive and on-going preservation program consistent with your organization's overall goals, activities, resources and structure. It may include such specific tasks as developing a work plan, budget, procedures, manuals, and a disaster and recovery plan.

Once your program is designed you must decide how and who will be responsible for managing it. Specific tasks here may include on-going guidance, management and implementation of the project.
