Abstract: Organizations today are faced with the challenge of managing a bigger number of projects in an efficient way. Public sector is a good example of a multi-project system and each improvement in project management in this kind of environment is a very interesting field for study. Assuming there is a well-defined and organized project management system in place, the literature describes and practical examples show that efficiency depends directly on quality of data delivered from the lowest levels of management. Research into the theoretical background of this phenomenon points to the necessity of a systematic approach to planning: clearly defined demands and standardized forms for project plans development create preconditions for a precise and transparent vertical flow of information available to all project participants. The goal is to record and keep all required pieces of information on the project, in the first place those regarding time and finances, in one place in an integrated document called the project plan.
