Project Scoping
Every
technology-based business system starts with a project scoping
exercise which at a minimum includes gathering business
requirements, understanding workflow processes and projecting
overall project costs. This phase of a project is also commonly
called a Project Charter or Scope of Work. The terminology varies
from company to company but the process is the same. This phase
outlines a realistic project budget for management approval.
The
Challenge
Once the
project is approved, the biggest challenge is keeping the
implementation within budget. The
primary cause of budget overruns is changing requirements. In most
cases the problem can be traced back to not asking the right
questions in the first place when scoping the original project.
