Project Management Process Scope

Greetings from Customer

In the methodology noticeably the project scope statement and managing the scope (Scope Management) is missing. Which process will take care of these.

This is covered in the "Change Management" section. Please have a look and let me know if you have any questions.

Change management comes into play once the entire requirement (Scope) is defined, and the changes will be to the original requirements. The Project Charter defines the requirements, but rather it is at high level, a detailed specification has to be done, which different people may call it different names (Project Scope Statement as per PMI, Requirement Specification, Functional Specification). Furthermore scope is one of the triple constraints therefore defining it entirely and controlling is very much essential.

I could not find that in the templates provided in MPMM Project Management Process. I am sure this question would have come up in the past from other customers. As per PMI scope is further divided as ‘Preliminary Scope Statement’, ‘Scope Statement’ reemphasizing the important of this requirement.

I understand this is correct. We don't have specific templates that define and manage scope. However our change management templates overlap with scope management a lot. Please have a look here Change Management Templates for the overlap between the PMI scope processes and our templates. Please let me know if you have any further questions. We are here to help.

Once the analysis has been completed in every process, the process of eliminating waste can begin on the process as a whole. Each part of the process has to contribute to the end product. The cutting of waste from each and every step in the production of a deliverable is the core essence of the lean methodology approach. This can be in the material that is added or the number of workers necessary to complete the task. The overall reductio...

Communications Register

Under what situations should I create a Communications Register for my project ? For small, medium and large projects you should always implement a Communications Register. This register will identify all of the communications events that have taken place for the project and also the communications events that are due to take place in the future. The reason for listing the communications events that are due to take place is that it provides a single place where the project manager can use and control communications to stake holders. For example the register will enable the project manager to view the status of all of the communications to date and determine whether or not the stake holders to the project are being kept in the loop and informed.
