Ross Publishing  \nList Price: US$ 49.95 Format: Hard Cover; 288 pages  \nPublication Date: June 2014 ISBN: 978-1-60427-090-7  \nReviewer: Mark W. Depperschmidt  \nReview Date: October 2014  \nIntroduction to the Book  \nGoing Beyond the Waterfall addresses scope definition and provides a model for predicting, evolving and managing scope across a project life cycle. It stresses the importance of contribution of decisions and actions of every team member during the evolutionary process.  \nIt also identifies the impact that tasks and activities have on scope. The tools and methods provided by the authors give practical means to managing scope and prevent unnecessary scope creep and run away projects.  \nAlthough the book spends considerable time on the basics of scope and scope management, it also provides significant information on the strengths and weaknesses of Waterfall, Agile and Enterprise Architecture.  \nThe publisher offers a downloadable decision case template; charter, scope, and benefits realization planning documents; project issue and risk tables; a deliverablesand artifacts index; and a change control log—available from the Web Added Value™ [Download Resource Center](Download Resource Center at www.jrosspub.com)[ at](Download Resource Center at www.jrosspub.com)[ ](Download Resource Center at www.jrosspub.com)[www.jrosspub.com](Download Resource Center at www.jrosspub.com)  \nThe publisher cites a free download of the templates. The free templates are in pdf form. An additional fee of $6.95 is required for the Microsoft Word and Excel versions of the PDF files ready for customization and use.  \nOverview of Book’s Structure  \nThe book is organized in 4 sections addressing discovery, scope and defining business solutions; change control; project and architecture methodologies and implementations. Each section includes multiple chapters detailing the section.  \nEach chapter contains valuable diagrams to illustrate the points, checklists and reference citations for additional reading. It also includes an Appendix of templates, outlines and checklists.  \nHighlights: What’s New in this Book?  \nThe book evaluates the project methodologies of Waterfall, Agile and Enterprise architecture providing objective analysis of strengths and weaknesses. The discussion elaborates on areas that can significantly affect the outcome and success of a project.  \nBy combining the Agile and Waterfall methodologies, Ms. Davis shows the viability of multiple approaches to scope management to mitigate nearly every possible risk to scope in early planning.  \nHighlights: What I liked!  \nI found this book to be very interesting reading. The material is very appropriate to current project management where Agile and Waterfall are often assumed to be mutually exclusive. The book focuses on providing real world solutions to the constantly changing requirements of today’s business objectives.  \nI particularly enjoyed the authors “sense of duty” to the business and its objectives as a customer and not just project management. It provides considerable information to help executive sponsors and stakeholders understand the methodologies available and the tools both employ to manage scope and scope creep.  \nTo illustrate the concepts, the author included many examples that are easily relatable by all levels of stakeholders and project management personnel.  \nWho might benefit from the Book?  \nChief information officers, project managers & leaders, consulting firms, business analysts, architects and developers will benefit from reading this book. This is a valuable read for anyone with an objective of managing scope across a project, increasing alignment of technology and business needs and obtaining a higher ROI for technology projects and solutions.  \nConclusion  \nThis is a valuable resource for managing scope in projects.
