Task: Project Profiling
Profiling projects provides additional information that allows project managers and key stakeholders to better understand the unique aspects of the project and therefore better plan the project. Project profiling is a relatively new practice in project management but profiling models are emerging in the literature. Its benefits include its use as a risk management strategy.
