The image to the left is a visualization of the concept in professional project management of constraints. Project constraints are the boundaries and limitations that define what's possible within a project. The six most common constraints are scope, cost, time, quality, risk, and resources. Each constraint affects project planning, execution, and outcomes.

Most project constraints affect one another, which is why constraint management is crucial for project success. If you decide that you must expand the project timeline, then you'll likely need more money to complete the project as well. Your project scope will also expand when the time and cost of your project expand.
