Project Scope Management

Where are weWe have completed the initiation process

We are ready to start the Project Planning Process

Purpose of this Lecture:Defining Project Goals & ObjectivesDiscovering RequirementAgreeing on DeliverablesDetermining Assumptions & ConstraintsCompiling the Project Scope Statement

What is Scope?Project scope –The work that must be done in order to deliver a product

with the specified features and functions.

Project Scope Management includes the processes required to ensure that the project includes all the work required, and only the work required, to complete the project successfully, with all the requirements and characteristics agreed upon.

Project Scope Management is primarily concerned with defining and controlling what is and is not included in the project.

COLLECT REQUIREMENTSHow requirements can be collected?

COLLECT REQUIREMENTSHow do you collect requirements?

INTERVIEWS (Directly with stakeholders) FOCUS GROUPS (prequalified Stakeholders & Subject

matter experts) FACILITATED WORKSHOPS (Focused cross functional

stakeholders) JAD Joint application design, QFD Quality function development

GROUP CREATIVITY TECHNIQUES (brainstorming, nominal group technique, Delphi Technique, Idea/mind mapping, Affinity Diagram)

GROUP DECISION MAKING TECHNIQUES (Unanimity, Majority, Plurality, Dictatorship)

QUESTIONNAIRE AND SURVEYS (wide number of respondents)

OBSERVATION (viewing individual in their environment) PROTOTYPES (early feedback by providing a working model) Bench marking, Context Diagram and Document Analysis

Collect RequirementsFor the requirement that you gathered, you

make these three documents to proceed further.1. Requirement Documentation

Business need or opportunity to be seized Project objectives for traceability Functional requirements (business processes, information) Non-functional requirements (level of services, performance, safety) Quality requirements Acceptance criteria Business rules Impact of other organizational area, sales, technology group Support and training requirements Requirements assumptions and constraints

2. Requirement Management Plan How requirement activities will be planned, tracked & reported How changes to the product initiated, impact analysis and level of

authorization for approval of change Requirement Prioritization process

Collect Requirements3. Requirement Traceability Matrix

A table that links requirements to their origin and traces them throughout the project life cycle.

It helps to ensure that each requirement adds business value by linking it to the business and projective objectives.

It provides a mean to track requirements throughout the project life cycle.

Help to ensure that requirements approved in the requirement documents are delivered at the end of the project.

It provides a structure for managing changes to the product scope.

Attributes are associated with each requirement and recorded in the requirement traceability matrix; such as: a unique identifier, textural description of each requirement, rationale of inclusion, owner, source, priority, version, current status and date completed.

Test Cases

Define ScopeAfter collecting requirements, you do a PRODUCT

ANALYSIS ( Product breakdown, requirement analysis, system engineering, value engineering and value analysis) and you also do an ALTERNATIVE IDENTIFICATION (different approaches to execute and perform the work of the project) and you produce a scope statement.

Scope statement is very important for a project manager due to the following reasons: It Includes Major Deliverables It also Includes the deliverables excluded from the project I shows major assumptions and risk factors in the project It lists out all project requirements that are gathered from the

previous stem It is then signed by the project manager, sponsor, major

stakeholders and some vendors that may have major part to play in the project.

It is a total commitment from the Project manager and the sponsor.

CREATE WBSSince in define scope, we prepare scope statement

therefore we can now break the project into work packages, also known as deliverables.

The technique we use in breaking project into work packages is called Decomposition. This decomposition techniques provides us an output of :

WBS : It is a deliverable-oriented hierarchical decomposition of the work to be executed by the project team

WBS DICTIONARY (Code, description of work, responsible organization, list of schedule milestones, associated schedule activities, resources required, cost estimates, quality requirements, acceptance criteria)

SCOPE BASELINE: A component of project management plan (PSS, WBS, WBS Dictionary)

PROJECT DOCUMENT UPDATEScope Statement is then passed on to the Project Time

Management and Project Quality Management to plan for Time and Quality.

TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES INSPECTION (Includes activities such as measuring, examining and

verifying to determine whether work & deliverables meet requirement and product requirement criteria. Also called: review, product reviews, audits & walkthroughs)

OUTPUTS ACCEPTED DELIVERABLES

The ones that meet the acceptance criteria are formally signed off and approved.

CHANGE REQUESTS (the once not meet acceptance run through project integrated change control process)

**Control Scope is the process of monitoring the status of the project and product scope and managing changes to the scope baseline.

Controlling the project scope ensures all requested changes and recommended corrective or preventive actions are processes through the Perform Integrated Change Control process. Uncontrolled changes are often referred as Project Scope Creep.

VARIANCE ANALYSIS: assess the magnitude of variation from original scope baseline.
