Scope Statement
A description of the project's deliverables, boundaries, and acceptance criteria.
The project scope statement is the primary output of the Define Scope process and documents the project’s deliverables, boundaries, constraints, assumptions, and acceptance criteria. It elaborates the high-level requirements from the charter into a precise description of what will, and will not, be produced. Unlike the charter, which authorizes the project and names the project manager, the scope statement defines the work in detail. It is the basis for the WBS, and approved changes flow through integrated change control, making it the reference point for evaluating scope creep.
