Project Plan Deliverables

1. Project Charter (Must use MS-Word or MS-PowerPoint)
   • The project charter provides an overview of the project purpose and objectives (scope, cost, schedule)
   • Project charters are an agreement between the client and the project manager as to what needs to be done, when, and how much it will cost.
   • Project charters come in many forms, however, for this class I have provided the template that you must use.
2. Project Organizational Chart (Must use Visio or MS-PowerPoint)
   • The project organization chart shows pictorially what roles are needed for the project and the reporting hierarchy
   • Project organization charts differ from company organization charts. Company organization charts focus on formal position people hold within a company (i.e. Director of Marketing) rather than temporary roles people play on projects (i.e. Testing team leader, Project Manager, Construction Laborer, Quality Inspector, etc…)
   • Project organization charts are a useful tool for team members to see where they fit into the big picture
