You are in charge of organizing a dinner-dance concert for a local charity. You have reserved a hall that will seat 40 couples and have hired a jazz combo.

Develop a scope statement for this project that contains examples of all the elements. Assume that the event will occur in five weeks and provide your best guess estimate of the dates for milestones.

Remember from the reading

A clear and concise scope statement can help in the relatively smooth completion of a project. In addition, having a clear scope statement can help avoid "scope creep" (where the project grows larger beyond the initial agreement). Follow these steps to create a scope statement:

List the project name, charter, project owner, sponsors, and stakeholders.

Identify a project justification, requirements, milestones, goals, and deliverables. Any task or activity that falls outside the project scope should be clearly identified and mentioned.

Provide cost estimates.
