Abstract
Project Management, as it is understood today, was established no later than fifty years ago, in the early 1960s, when companies began to appreciate the benefits of organized project work and to understand how important it was to coordinate departments to achieve a common goal. Nowadays, Project Management is applied in all companies, in the form of its three fundamental approaches, Waterfall, Agile and Hybrid, which have become a fundamental tool for completing a project while respecting deadlines, costs and maintaining quality to desired standards. For this thesis work, a predominantly Waterfall methodology was followed, with distinct phases in which each phase begins only after the previous one is complete.
The project is tracked through a fundamental tool available to the project manager, the project schedule, which allows for resource allocation, identification of critical paths, and ensuring that the project stays on track
