Activity
The process of determining, documenting, and managing stakeholder needs and requirements to meet project objectives.
Collect Requirements
A management point where scope, budget, actual cost, and schedule are integrated and compared to earned value for performance measurement.
Control Account
The process of monitoring the status of the project and product scope and managing changes to the scope baseline.
Control Scope
The process of subdividing project work into smaller, more manageable components.
Create Work Breakdown Structure
A technique used for dividing and subdividing the project scope and project deliverables into smaller, more manageable parts. This is an example of a top-down approach to create a WBS.
Decomposition
The process of developing a detailed description of the project and product.
Define Scope
The process of creating a plan that documents how the project scope will be defined, validated, and controlled.
Plan Scope Management
AA work breakdown structure component below the control account and above the work package with known work content but without detailed schedule activities.
Planning Package
The features and functions that characterize a product, service, or result.
Product Scope
The work performed to deliver a product, service, or result with the specified features and functions.
Project Scope
The processes required to ensure that the project includes all the work required, and only the work required, to complete the project successfully.
Project Scope Management
A condition or capability that is necessary to be present in a product, service, or result to satisfy a business need.

Validate Scope
A technique for determining the cause and degree of difference between the baseline and actual performance.
Variance Analysis
A hierarchical decomposition of the total scope of work to be carried out by the project team to accomplish the project objectives and create the required deliverables.
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
The work defined at the lowest level of the work breakdown structure for which cost and duration can be estimated and managed.
Work Package
Products, results, or capabilities produced by a project and validated by the project customer or sponsors as meeting their specified acceptance criteria.
Accepted Deliverables
A grid that links product requirements from their origin to the deliverables that satisfy them.
Requirements Traceability Matrix
The sum of the products, services, and results to be provided as a project.
Scope
The approved version of a scope statement, work breakdown structure (WBS), and its associated WBS dictionary that can be changed using formal change control procedures and is used as a basis for comparison to actual results.
Scope Baseline
Completed project deliverables that have been checked and confirmed for correctness through the Control Quality process.
Verified Deliverables
