Document Summary

Scope: refers to all the work involved in creating the products of the project and the processes used to create them. Deliverable: a product created as part of a project, it can be product-related, like a piece of hardware or software, or process-related such as planning document or meeting minutes. Project scope management: includes the processes involved in defining and controlling what work is or is not included in a project. Creating the work breakdown structure (wbs: work breakdown structure (wbs): a deliverable-oriented grouping of the work involved in a project that defines its total scope. The wbs is a foundation document in project management because it provides the basis for planning and managing schedules, costs, resources, and changes. Validating scope: it is difficult to create a good project scope statement and wbs for a project. It is even more difficult, especially on it projects, to verify the project scope and minimize scope changes.
