Services - Project Charter
The Project Charter captures the scope, deliverables, schedule, quality and budget for the project. The document is started in the initiation phase with a scope statement, and is signed off at the end of the planning process. When changes are made to the scope, schedule, budget, or quality the project manager will document them separately as change requests and decision documents.
The Project Charter, is an invaluable project management tool. If there is ever a question of authority, process or scope during the project or after its completion, the project charter will provide validation and signed back-up if necessary.
