Projectplanningis the initial phase in a system implementation lifecycle. During this phase, the following tasks are performed:

Evaluating costs: Estimating the budget required for the new system.

Defining goals and objectives: Establishing the project’s scope and purpose.

Analyzing available resources: Reviewing available human, technical, and financial resources.

Conducting user trainingoccurs later, during theexecution or implementation phase,not during planning. Training prepares end-users once the system is configured or ready to be used, not when planning is being scoped.
