Abstract. Currently the software is used increasingly. It affects almost all the human activities. This is reason why, demands its development is growing. Is required not only high quality, but also the shortest time of delivery of the finished solution. In order to fulfill this could be a lot of effort, often hundreds of people. Cooperation as large, but also smaller groups of people requires a high degree of coordination. Every single team member must know what to do and when it needs to be done, because of timeliness. That's why planning is important. It seems that for large projects with large numbers of people involved in the solutions, is planning necessary, but is also needed in small teams, where coordination is not nearly so difficult? How to plan projects that people are not overwhelmed, but to prosecute dates yet? How to plan to not lose too much time for planning? Answers to these and other important issues I will discuss in this essay. In addition, I will discuss some important causes of failure of projects from the standpoint of planning, and from a different perspective. These factors are also an integral part of software projects and should take them into account in the planning process.
