Additional comments: There are some issues with this charter. Writing a business paper is very different than writing an English paper. Clearly explain the problem. We need to build a new HR portal program because it has this impact on our operations which has this impact on our finances of $X for the year. This project will fix this problem by performing these functions. These other related functions are beyond the scope and will not be touched by the project team. It will cost $X over $X years. Include all the required sections as stated in the instructions. Feel free to use bullets and tables as appropriate.
