Unit Commentary

This Unit covers the competence of archaeologists to estimate resources and develop programmes for projects. A programme defines the scope of the works and is a scheme worked out to include all the activities needed to achieve the project outcomes, resourced and scheduled.

On large and complex projects the role of the project manager will normally be to direct and verify the activities of specialists and others who will be preparing material at the level of technical detail. On smaller projects or on those that are straightforward, the project manager may well be expected to do all this work themselves.
