Project Scope




Project Scope is considered as a process that identifies and documents project parameters. Scoping a project serves a number of interests.

For the Project Manager (PM), scoping a project assists with establishing project parameters based on “what needs to be done”. These parameters, fundamentally, are based on quality, time, and cost of resources required by the project. By scoping a project, the PM can move onto developing a Work Based Structure (WBS). 

The WBS is a critical component of scoping and initiating a project. The WBS is a deliverable oriented; task related and sequenced graphical representation of the project. The WBS forms the basis for the development of the project schedule.

The Project Team (PT) can be involved in the process of scoping and developing the WBS for the project.
The Project Sponsor (PS) and project stakeholders receive key information about the project. Receiving information related to project stages, resources required sequence of tasks and relationships between resources and tasks, allows project stakeholders to develop an understanding of the methodology of the project.

  2. In my opinion the WBS is a process that takes a lot of time and experience in project management is required.
    Previous experience in project management indicates to me that is more comfortable being a generalist. Because you can manage more easily the changes and needs within a project.

  3. Work Based Structure is a way to organize or plan a project clarifying specific tasks with different details!
