As many of us know, there is a lot of paperwork involved in most processes within projects whether it is for monitoring or documentation purposes and individual companies have different Quality Management Systems. While it is easy to say make documentation enough to be sufficient in recording all necessary information while not being too much that it inhibits the progression of the project but actually doing that is hard. in some cases preparing for weekly presentations takes up more time that it should leaving you with only enough time to deal with the now without necessarily being able to reevaluate the current situation in terms of scope, progression, and how new information ties into the grand scheme of things. This makes it more of a reactive management as opposed to preventative which may result in more critical failures in projects. Do you think reactive management in a bad thing? if not, why? if so, how do you suggest companies tackle the balance of documenting and actually fulfilling a task?
