Scope Flashcards
5.1 Plan Scope Mgmt
The process of creating a scope mgmt plan that documents how the project and product scope will be defined, validated, and controlled.
5.2 Collect Rqmts
The process of determining, documenting and managing stakeholder needs and rqmts to meet project deliverables
5.3 Define Scope
The process of developing a detailed description of the project and product
5.4 Create WBS
The process of subdividing project deliverables and project work into smaller, more manageable components
5.5 Validate Scope
The process of formalizing acceptance of the completed project deliverables
5.6 Control Scope
The process of monitoring the status of the project and product scope and managing change to the scope baseline
What is managing scope primarily concerned with
Defining and controlling what is included in the project
What is scope
The sum of the products to be provided as a project
The work performed to deliver a product with the specified features and functions
PROJECT scope
What is product scope
- The features and functions that characterize a product
2. Characteristics of the product described in the project charter and rqmts documentation
What does the Scope Mgmt Plan provide
Processes for
- Preparing a project scope statement
- Creating the WBS
- Establishing how the scope baseline will be approved and maintained
- Formalizing acceptance of the completed project deliverables
What is the Project scope statement
- The description of the project scope
- Major deliverables
- Assumptions
- Constraints
This documents the entire scope–both project and product
What is the project scope statement
This describes the deliverables in detail
Project scope statement
What do we call the scope statement, the WBS, and the WBS Dictionary
Scope Baseline
the process of creating a scope mgmt plan that documents how the project and product scope will be defined, validated and controlled
What is Plan Scope Mgmt
What is the key benefit of plan scope mgmt
It provided guidance and direction on how scope will be managed
What are 3 Key inputs to Plan Scope Mgmt
Quality Mgmt Plan
Project Life Cycle Description
Developmental approach
Why is the developmental approach needed in plan scope mgmt
Need to know if we are using a waterfall, iterative, adaptive, agile, or hybrid approach
Key Outputs
Scope Mgmt Plan
Rqmts Mgmt Plan
What is special about the outputs of plan scope mgmt
It is only 1 of 2 processes that have TWO plans as outputs
What is a Rqmts Mgmt Plan
- It describes how rqmt activities will be planned, tracked and reported
- Considers configuration mgmt activities (how changes will be initiated)
- Metrics
- Traceability structure that reflects rqmt attributes
Where can I find rqmt metrics
Rqmt Mgmt Plan
Where can I find the traceability structure that reflects rqmt attributes
Rqmts Mgmt Plan
What is the key benefit of Collect Rqmts
It provides the basis for defining the project and product scope
A condition or capability that is necessary to be present in a product to satisfy a business need
What is a Rqmt
What are the Key inputs to Collect Rqmts
Scope Mgmt Plan Rqmts Mgmt Plan Stakeholder Engagement Plan Business Case Agreements Stakeholder Register
Why are Agreements an input to collect rqmts
They may contain project and product rqmts
Why is the rqmts mgmt plan an input to Collect Rqmts
It details how rqmts will be collected, analyzed and documented
What are the Key outputs of collect rqmts
Rqmts Documentation
Rqmts Traceability Matrix
This describes the behaviors of the product; e.g. actions, processes, interactions
What a re functional rqmts
This describes the environmental conditions or qualities req’d for the product to be effective
What are non-functional rqmts
What is the function of Rqmts Documentation
Describes how individual rqmts meet the business need for the project
A grid that links product rqmts from their origin to their deliverables
What is a rqmts traceability matrix
