Deliverables
Boundaries
What is the benefit of creating SMART objectives?
It guarantees that the project will finish on time
It makes objectives less strict and more flexible
It provides measurable and clearly defined project goals
It eliminates the need for project planning
Scope creep occurs when:
The team creates a detailed timeline

Team responsibilities
Stakeholder communication plans
Why is defining “Out-of-Scope” items important?
To identify who will manage the project
