$2.00
A project scope document—sometimes called a scope of work (SOW)—is a critical piece of project paperwork that gets teams and stakeholders aligned on the boundaries of a project before it even begins. A successful project scope statement should be concise and clear. Anyone reading the statement should have a good idea of what the project consists of (and what will not be part of the project). This statement will give a view of the project. It is also important to be specific in a project scope statement. In this article, we will walk through an example of project scope to help you better understand how to create great scope statements.
What are your first thoughts? My initial thought is that this scope statement completely lacks any of the SMART goal features. SMART stands for:
- Specific
- Measurable
- Agreed Upon
- Realistic
- Time-Bound
