Project planning and tracking

Project planning and tracking is a part of project management. When the requirements are stated and agreed upon by the client, a plan needs to be made. Project plan is a document describing the tasks involved to complete the requirements of the system, Allocation of resources, time forecasted to complete the requirement. Project plan helps to determine an estimate for the application along with delivery

As and when the plan is executed (i.e. the requirements are implemented), the plan needs to be tracked. Tracking of plan would mean updating the actual time taken for the planned requirements. Tracking helps to identify the deviation from the planned hours which in turns helps to determine performance. Project tracking is expected to be done at a regular basis to track deviation.
