What are Project Constraints?

Project Constraints are the limitations or restrictions that affect how a project is executed. The three most common constraints are scope, time, and cost (known as the "Triple Constraint"). Any changes to one of these constraints will likely impact the others.

How to Manage Project Constraints

• Clearly identify and document the constraints at the start of the project (e.g., fixed deadline, budget limits).
• Monitor any changes in the project that could affect these constraints, and adjust your project plan accordingly.
• Tip: Regular communication with stakeholders is key to managing constraints. If a deadline or budget changes, immediately assess the impact on the project scope.
