Project Scope Statement

A document that explains what the project will include, identifies the primary deliverables, and clearly states what work is out of scope.

Key Points

  • Defines the project's boundaries by stating what is included and excluded.
  • Lists the major deliverables and the conditions for their acceptance.
  • Forms part of the scope baseline when combined with the WBS and WBS dictionary.
  • Sets expectations for stakeholders and supports scope change control.

Example

A company is rolling out a new CRM system. The project scope statement specifies included work such as configuring standard modules, migrating legacy customer data, and delivering user training. It lists deliverables like the configured CRM, migration scripts, and training materials. It also states exclusions, such as building a custom mobile app or integrating with unsupported third-party tools, and defines acceptance criteria for each deliverable.
