Document Summary

The term deliverable describes a product produced as part of a project. There are five main processes involved in project scope management. Controlling requirements involves defining and documenting the features and functions of the products produced during the project as well as the processes used for creating them. Defining scope involves reviewing the project charter, requirements documents, and organizational process assets to create a scope statement, adding more information as requirements are developed and change requests are approved. Verifying scope involves formalizing acceptance of the project deliverables and during this phase the key project stakeholders, such as the customer and sponsor for the project, inspect and then formally accept the deliverables during this process. The main outputs of verifying scope are accepted deliverables and change requests. Controlling scope involves controlling changes to project scope throughout the life of the project, which is a challenge on many information technology projects.
