Statement of
Work—Project Descriptionand
Project Product

In
this section of the scope statement, we specifically elaborate on what the
project will create. One should also discuss here how the project team plans
to accomplish this project. This section should be quite detailed, because it
creates the basis for the entire project and prepares you for development of
your upcoming WBS. Here you should list the high-level tasks and describe how
each task will be executed for the project. This section should be based on
information found in the project’s charter. For example,a software
development project would have an overall description (two to three
paragraphs explaining the project product).This would be followed by 2-3 pages going into detail about the work being completed on
the project.

Project
Deliverables

What
are the tangible outputs or services of this project? What big-picture items
will have to be created or performed in order to accomplish the statement of work?These
are a list of items that will be the result of the execution of the project
work packages in the WBS. For example, if your task is to develop software
program for application A,one of your deliverables will be software
application developed. The project examples in this class normally have 10 to
15deliverables.

Project
Objectives

What
are the cost, schedule, and quality objectives of this project? Your
objective statement is likely to be the same or similar as in your project
charter, based on any new knowledge. Here you might add goals for the
project. Objectives can and often do look past the end for the project, such
as an example of cutting costs in operations by 15%.It is highly possible
that your project objective will have some subobjectives or goals. For
example, the project objective for the software project might be as follows.
The
objective of this project is to develop a new programming application for the
payroll department that will interface with the existing Kronos system by
10/12/2014 at a budgeted cost of $50,000. The goals of the project include
the following.
·
Create a newly
developed program that will be installed and tested by users.
·
Install and load
server hardware required for the application and database environment.

Project
Assumptions

What
are the assumptions on which the project is based? Project assumptions are
those things we believe to be true without proof for planning purposes. For
our software development, we might assume that users will be available to
test when needed. We have no way to know this for sure during project
planning; thus, it is an assumption for our project. You should have at least
15–20 assumptions.

Project
Constraints

What
are the major limiting factors that affect the project?Project constraints
are limitations placed upon the project. Many of them are placed by individuals
outside of the project. These limitations could be laws, regulations, rules,
policies, procedures, or customer or sponsor requirements.Let’s say we are
limited to access for 10 users to test the new application. Thiswould be a
constraint of resources available to test the project. You should have at
least 10–15 constraints.

Exclusions

What
are the boundaries of the project? What is not going to be included in the
project? This helps the project manager to set boundaries on the project
scope. For example, on our software development project, we might exclude
some specific functionality on the program. Let’s say Internet access for
credit card payments will not be included in the programming for this
project. You should have at least 10–15 exclusions.

Acceptance
Criteria

Develop
a checklist that will be used by the customer to measure your performance for
the project. This includes the following: What must the product be able to do
when completed to be acceptable to the customer?What standards or regulations
must the product meet? What performance specifications must the product meet
to be acceptable to the customer?For example, the new application developed
must be installed in accordance with the standard equipment and
specifications; functionality tested by the user and accepted prior to
implementation.

Technical
Requirements

What is needed to make this project functional in
terms of equipment, computers, cash registers, and so forth?What
functionality must it have? In our example, there would be specific types
of hardware required, such as 2 HP Proliant DL580 G7 high performance
servers are needed for the application software program execution and
database storage.This section should be three to five pages, depending on
the project you selected.
