Scope Statement Essential Components

For this assignment, you will develop a scope statement that will be used to define the project requirements and exclusions. The scope statement should include the following elements:

Executive Summary - 2-3 paragraph summary of the business needs and key features of the project. Business Requirements - The specific statement(s) that describe the business problem to be solved. Solution Requirements - A list of all relevant technical, project and regulatory requirements that effectively solve the project's business objectives. Solution requirements must be classified by priority. Exclusions (Out of Scope) - Items that the project will not address. Key Project Features - In this section, identify any conditions that limit project planning. Constraints of the project such as "must-have "milestones, constrained due dates, events or budgetary restrictions. Assumptions & Risks - Identified risks and/or assumptions from the business case and project charter. Approvals - Space for key stakeholders to formally review approve all sections of the scope statement content. (Note: Best practice is that the Project Sponsor reviews and approves key project management documents).

The assignment should use business-style writing. Do not assume the audience has read the project case.
