MONITORING: are we on track (on time and on quality)? Do we need a correction?
ALPHA: delivering a feature complete version, ready for debug & polish.
Before we start, let's clarify the difference between a PRODUCT MANAGER and a PROJECT MANAGER:

Board incomplete. Please iterate.
For SpacePlan and small projects, the project manager, at times, needs to step into the role of product manager.
In the gaming industry, a Project Manager also acting as Product Manager is usually called a Producer.
