Guidance for project scoping

Before starting, your team and the key stakeholders should have a well-defined scope outlining what you plan to do.

Collaborate with all stakeholders to gain their agreement on this document, ensuring confidence that the scope is appropriate.

Completing this exercise with genuine effort will greatly contribute to a valuable experience, setting the tone and direction for your work throughout the year.

Scoping your project requires careful effort, so we’ve created a template to help you kickstart it effectively.

Guidance for project kickoff

The complexity of your project might be significantly greater than anything you have encountered before.

Even if the technical task is well understood, “real-world” factors can still make it challenging.

We’ve developed a Getting a Good Start’ guidance deck to help you navigate the process of starting strong and setting yourself up for success.

closing your project

Thoroughly documenting your project is essential to ensure that someone else can seamlessly take over and continue the work without missing a beat. To support this, we’ve developed comprehensive guidelines for handing off projects, ensuring smooth transitions and maintaining the integrity of the project’s progress.
