Project Name: Bridge construction

This section should list all of the deliverables that the customer, project sponsor, or stakeholders require upon the successful completion of the project. Every effort must be made to ensure this list includes all deliverables and project sponsor approval must be required for adding additional deliverables in order to avoid scope creep.

The following deliverables must be met upon the successful completion of the ISA project. Any changes to these deliverables must be approved by the project sponsor.

• Fully deployed intranet security solution
• Technical documentation for intranet security solution
• Recommendation list for future security considerations

This section provides an estimated schedule of all high-level project milestones. It is understood that this is an estimate and will surely change as the project moves forward and the tasks and milestones and their associated requirements are more clearly defined.

The project Summary Milestone Schedule is presented below. As requirements are more clearly defined this schedule may be modified. Any changes will be communicated through project status meetings by the project manager.

The summary budget should contain general cost components and their planned costs. As the project moves forward these costs may change as all tasks and requirements become clearer. Any changes must be communicated by the project manager.

Project Approval Requirements

The organization must understand when the project has reached a successful completion. These criteria must be clear and should be accepted by whoever will sign-off on the project's closeout. Once signed-off by the authorized person, the project is deemed approved and is successful as long as it has met all of the agreed upon requirements.

Success for the ISA project will be achieved when a fully tested intranet security solution, and all technical documentation, is fully deployed throughout the company within the time and cost constraints indicated in this charter. Additionally, this measure of success must include a recommendation list for future security considerations as we fully anticipate the necessity of this solution to evolve in order to prevent future threats. Success will be determined by the Project Sponsor, Mr. Jim Thomas, who will also authorize completion of the project.
