The Integrated Project Planning and Management Cycle (IPPMC) is a conceptual tool for observing and analyzing the single process that constitutes the life of a development project. The self-renewing IPPMC may be divided into four major phases: (1) Planning, appraisal and design; (2) Selection, approval, and activization; (3) Operation, control, and handover; and (4) Evaluation and refinement. Specific tasks may be further identified within these four phases.
