This will be Lesson 1.3 in MS PROJECT 2010 Course and we will learn about:
Archiving Information
SUCCESS of a project largely depends on how well the requirements are:
-understood
-captured
-effectively managed
Detailed and careful archiving of Information:
-Gives clarity related to all spheres of the project
-Brings uniform understanding and consensus between all stakeholders
-Provides a ready record, based on which the project can be monitored once work begins.
Detailed and careful archiving of Information becomes the base for various planning tools like:
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), Cost Planning and Quality Planning
.
The Components
The basic components of the Information archived for a Project as derived from the Requirements include:
-The Business need / opportunity
-Project Objectives
-Functional requirements
-Non- functional requirements (like safety, security, etc.)
-Quality Requirements
-Acceptance Criteria
-Guiding principles of the Organization
-Assumptions
-Constraints, etc
Traceability is being able to link the requirement back to its origin and continue to monitor it through the project lifecycle
