What is Scope Statement?
It is a relatively brief and precise description of the system to be
developed. It is derived from customer meeting documents
and/or use-case scenarios. Among others, it includes the
followings information:
-
Need/justification/background statement
input and output data
Basic functionality of the system (obvious requirements)
Constraints and limitations that may be applicable to data
and functions
- Deliverables and Project Plan (Gantt chart and timetable of
milestones and deliverables)
- Others… (see posted article “Writing a Scope Statement”)

Examples of scope statements. Some are very brief others are
too elaborate. Your scope statement should reasonably and
adequately describe your project system.
