Individual Assignment: Overview of a Project

Purpose of Assignment

The key to the success of many projects is outlining the goal of a project, the people responsible for delivering the products or services, the stakeholders that may be affected, and the initial requirements of the project. The elements of this assignment equate to the elements of a project charter. The charter establishes the clear definition of the project, which is essential for a project’s success. The questions addressed assist in the preparation of a charter: mission and objectives, high-level scope and statement of need, cost, responsibility matrix, preliminary deliverables, time line, and success criteria. By using a project from the student’s past experiences, a charter can be developed that provides a good overview of the project.
