Unit III
Assignment
Refer to the project proposal you created for the Unit II
Assignment. For this assignment, you will be expanding on that project to
include a project scope document (i.e., the definition of what needs to be done
to produce the project deliverables and to satisfy the customer). The project
scope document should satisfy the following components:
Customer Requirements: Describe the customer requirements
through functional or performance specifications of the project’s end
product/service.
Statement of Work (SOW): Explain the SOW including the work
elements and milestones to be performed. This should include risks associated
with the project.
Deliverables: Formulate a schedule of the deliverables
including milestones throughout the project and the final deliverable at the
conclusion of the project. Compile a Gantt chart (instructions and example are
included within the Unit III Lesson).
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS): Describe the WBS that breaks
down the work elements in the SOW into specific work tasks.
Acceptance Criteria: Develop and build upon the acceptance
criteria discussed briefly in the project proposal.
While project scope documents may vary from project to
project, your document should contain a thorough description of each section.
Additionally, please include an introduction paragraph. If your project varies
in such a way that a thorough description is not possible, you will then
include elements of the section in question to give an outline of what is
provided. See the Unit III Lesson for additional insight on compilation of a
project proposal.
Your project scope document should be a minimum of three
pages in length, and each section should be properly labeled using the
subheadings above. If another person were to pick up your document, he or she
should know exactly what is expected and what direction the project will take.
Make sure you use appropriate APA-style writing and
citations. Also, make sure that you use 12-point Times New Roman font and that
you double-space.
