The Project Management system within my company is led by the Technology Services department. The project task is completed in approximately 7 of the following phases:

Phase 1: Proposal – An idea is proposed or presented for consideration
Phase 2: Research & Analysis – The Project Team gathers resources to facilitate the project
Phase 3: Project Proposal Decision – The project is either approved or denied after analysis of the proposal is completed
Phase 4: Planning – The Project Team develops a schedule and sets a target completion date for the project
Phase 5: Implementation – This phase includes the performing the work to complete the project
Phase 6: Warranty – The Project Team addresses and corrects any issues related to the project in this phase
Phase 7: Project Completion – The project is finalized

There may also be other phases of the project including: Canceled, Hold, External/Internal Delay. The project may be canceled/stopped by the requestor for a number of reasons. The project may even be placed on hold due to a number of factors including, but not limited to, the availability of the Project Team. Factors beyond the Project Team members control may even cause a delay in project completion.
