Project Management has been around for a very long time; long before computers and software. As a science, it is pretty well established. Other than in IT, project managers are real managers. They negotiate their charter to determine their authority; they control the budgets they planned; they select the talent needed to do the job; the set the schedule, manage process quality and risks.
The only reason Project Management has failed in the development of software is that software is not a project. Software is not planned; it is invented in an ad hoc artisan process; and that is why SCRUM is so successful.
