A. Project progress can be quantified in many ways. The most common of which is the cost method where actual project cost progress is compared to planned project cost progress. Critically discuss this method of project control in terms of: its reflection of project progress; and its ability to isolate problem areas. B. Out of all of the methods used to control projects, critically discuss the most appropriate method. or combination of methods to control a project in your line of work, or a line of work of your choice (Hint: describe the line of work and discuss how one or more methods are appropriate, and how they should be implemented)
