project life cycle
Explanation:
The literal translation works well here because the German term was derived from the English.

See, for example, http://www.visitask.com/project-life-cycle.asp

In response to some of your comments: both "lifecycle" (one word) - as in http://projectmanagement.luxelsolutions.co.uk/ - and "life cycle" are used. This seems to be very much a matter of personal preference, regardless of UK vs US.
