Monitor the factors that create change, determine whether changes have occurred and keep abreast of changes that have occurred INITIATION Initiation MANAGEMENT INVOLVEMENT Scope planning INVOLVEMENT: sponsors, senior management, functional managers, customers, employees, vendors and regulators Scope definition INVOLVEMENT: Team Scope verification Scope change control Strategic plan (supplied by mgmt) Product description (supplied by mgmt) Project selection criteria (project selection approval process -- supplied by mgt Product description Charter Other planning outputs (procurement, communication, and quality) Work results (progress on deliverables) Product documentation (reqs, specs, drawing, etc.) Scope management plan Project selection methods (payback, benefit/cost ratio, etc. (as selection method) Product analysis (to break down the product of the project) Benefit/cost analysis Alternatives ID (from all) templates Or/and Decomposition (subdividing the major deliverables) Inspection (client, customer or sponsor must examine and inspect the products and sign a document attesting that it meets specs in the scope statement.
