The project is unique, temporary, and progressively elaborated in nature, where a manager is required to apply his knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to manage it. Hence, Project Management.
There are 49 processes with 660+ inputs, tools, techniques, and outputs with 18+ management plans and 33+ project documents.
A PM can use and leverage the stated artifacts based on the type of project, phase of a company (startup, medium, Or Large,) and phase of project/products as and when needed.
A project management plan has 18 Components, 14 Plans, and 4 Baselines.
(Scope Baseline, Schedule Baseline, Cost Baseline & Performance Measurement Baseline)
Process Groups are divided into five main phases of a project;
Project Initiating > Project Planning > Project Execution > Project Monitoring and Controlling > Project Closing

Process Flow & Interactions
For any kind of project or product development, we can pick & choose the required processes, phases, documents, tools, techniques, and outputs that suit based on our needs.
This is an exhaustive list that can be changed or updated, and depending on the type of organization we are in be it startup, small scale, or large scale, we can pick and choose the one we need and employ it. Further, as organization needs increase we can add further processes, phases, etc. Generally, the world follows a blended or hybrid approach from the best of the two worlds of project management.
This is based on the Project Management Institute (PMI)'s 'PMBOK Guide' - A guide to the project management body of knowledge And the standard for project management, which I further compacted for easy reference and discussion (developed by me), using material from Mr. Andrew Ramdayal's PM Course, Google's project management course & my personal project management experience.
The END.
