I am looking for a good Project Management Methodology that is geared for IT projects, easy to learn and apply, and works for application development, infrastructure and systems deployment, support projects, etc. alike.

It must allow for enough formality to serve as a good management tool, but still be flexible enough, and easy enough to not take all my available time for project management

cheers!

This is a common request from a project manager, but what PM's tend to forget is that there is no real methdology that will a combination of projects. But there are what is call concepts in term of the processes that will be followed through from defining the scope to closure. Methodologies which is common in the application development can very depending on they type of development required. For example, Gartner teaches concepts of the project but then hand out approxmiatley 12 different methodologies in terms of execution. A training course helped me distinguished the above.
