Hi Friends

Based on request from few of my peers, am putting across my thougths on best practices in IT Project Management. I have broken down into various parts. In this part, am covering the PRoject Scope.

Project Scope

-Define the problem

-Establish the Goals

- Develop the objectives

- Define the SCope

- Write SOW

- Statement of Work

-Project Title

-Goal Statement

-Objectives

-Deliverables

-Resources Requirements

-Schedule Summary

 

- Evaluating Options-Developing Paths

- Build or Buy

- Contract or Purchase

- Schedule vs Cost

- Deadline vs Scope

- Temporary vs Direct Personel

 

 

Once we have answer (taken care) to above points, the scope is define and the boundaries and expectation defined....This is just a starting for a simple project, there will be many more points, as we take up comple, mutliple Projects, mutliple locations, multiple implementations, etc....
