    Dear sir,
    I m a bit confused with this topic.
    In the text book it says project gateways and gives the below list
    1.initial screening
    2.risk assessment
    3. Business case
    4. Project plan
    5. Project milestones

    But in the technical article the 5 gateways are diff (OGC Gateways)

    My question is, are both of these correct and imply the same?

    Many thanks

    1.initial screening
    2.risk assessment
    3. Business case
    4. Project plan
    5. Project milestones

    These are the classic steps into which a project can be divided: these are not gateways.

    The gateway system gives another approach which divides a project up into different a different set of steps.

    Both are correct; both will get a project completed; they simply look at the process differently.

    Thank you for the reply.

    So does that mean, if the question says to analyse the project get aways I can use the classic sets and say, at the end of each step make sure its ok to go ahead with the project ?

    Yes. I would keep to the classic one and state somewhere that each stage should be satisfactorily completed before moving on and that Project Gateways provide an approach to this.
