Project Scope Management



Project Scope Management includes the processes required to ensure that the project includes all the work required, and only the work required, to complete the project successfully.

Remember, Scope Management means:
- Constantly checking to make sure all the work are completed
- No additional work include in the Project Charter
- Preventing extra work or gold platting

Process in Project Scope Management:
1. Collect Requirements, the process of defining and documenting stakeholder’s needs to 
     meet the project objectives
     Key Inputs: Stakeholder Register
     Key Tools & Techniques:  Facilitated Workshops, Group Creativity Techniques
     Key Outputs: Requirement Documentation, Requirement Traceability Matrix
2.  Define Scope: the process of developing a detailed description of project and product
     
     Key Inputs:Project Charter, Requirement Documentations
     Key Tools & Techniques:  Alternatives Identification
     Key Outputs: Project Scope Statement

3.  Create WBS: the process of subdividing project deliverable and project work into smaller 
     and more manageable components

     Key Inputs:Project Scope Statement
     Key Tools & Techniques:  Decomposition
     Key Outputs: WBS, WBS Dictionary, Scope Baseline

4.  Verify Scope: the process of formalizing acceptance of the completed project deliverable

     Key Inputs:Project Management Plan
     Key Tools & Techniques:  Inspection
     Key Outputs: Accepted Deliverable, Change Request

5.  Control Scope: the process of monitoring project status, product scope, and managing 
     changes 

     Key Inputs:Project Management Plan, Work Performance Information
     Key Tools & Techniques:  Variance Analysis
     Key Outputs: Work Performance Measurements

Differences between Verify Scope and Perform Quality Control
Verify Scope:
- Is often performed after Perform Quality Control
- Is primarily concerned with completeness
- Is concerned with the acceptance of the product by the project manager, the sponsor, the 
  customer and others

Perform Quality Control:
- It is not unusual for these processes to be performed at the same time
- Is primarily concerned with correctness
- Is concerned with adherence to the quality specification
Important Note: 
If the project is canceled before completion, Verify Scope should be performed to document
where the product was in relation to the scope at the point when the project ended
