The second step in our nine-step project lifecycle is to develop the project scope. After the initiation of the project, the project manager and stakeholders work together to define the scope of the project. Defining the project scope is an iterative process that, in practice, can take some time to complete; for this assignment only, a high-level definition of scope is required. The PMBOK® Guide (6th edition) describes several processes used to define a projects scope, including Plan Project Scope Management, Collect Requirements, Define Scope, and Create WBS.
Section 4.2 of the PMBOK® Guide (6th edition) Develop Project Management plan describes the Scope Management plan document. Scope planning is intended to create the Project Scope Management plan, which describes how the project manager and the project team will collect requirements, develop project scope statement, how the WBS will be developed, and how scope verification will occur and how project scope will be controlled. The other processes, Collect Requirements, Define Scope, and Create WBS, are described in chapter 5 of the PMBOK® Guide (6th edition). The project scope baseline consists of the Project Scope Statement, the WBS, and the WBS dictionary.
For this portion of the course project, you will develop the following project management artifacts:
Scope Management Plan/Statement
Project Scope Statement
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and WBS dictionary.
