Planning Tasks
Project coordinators usually develop comprehensive plans to describe the work involved with producing a company’s products and services. They use the techniques recommended by professional organizations, such as the Project Management Institute. For example, these coordinators use standard templates to complete a stakeholder analysis, develop a project charter, create a work breakdown structure, assign resources and monitor task completion. According to the Project Management Institute, during the planning process, the project manager defines the objectives and gathers stakeholder needs to coordinate the team and direct efforts. Team members can review the details associated with a project so there is no confusion about what needs to be done and when it needs to occur.
