ITS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE LATE THAN NEVER TOUCH YOUR REAL OBJECTIVE.
A project manager is the one person that could make a project a success with savings or profit, and could make it a disaster
Both, Project management is all about completing the task within time and within budget without compromising on quality of the work.
