Such documents may be maintained in a separate Scope directory along with the Scope Statement.  \n\n| Project Name: |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Prepared by: |  |\n| Date (MM/DD/YYYY) : |  |\n\n\n| Version History (insert rows as needed): |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Version | Date\u003Cbr>(MM/DD/YYYY) | Comments |\n| 1.0 |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n\n\u003CThe Scope Statement must account for all ofthe work of the project. This means that all deliverablesand all management responsibilities must be understood and documented. If any work is missing, important activities may be absent from your schedule and your budget may be insufficient to cover all of the cost. As you fill out each section of this document, consider every source of work. The guiding principle is:  \nEverything required for project success is in scope for the project.  \nIf you discover anything necessary for project success that is not currently included in your project, do whatever is needed to get it included (e.g. negotiate with your Sponsor) . If your project depends on deliverables form an external source, make the dependency known and manage it carefully.  \nBe certain to indicate all of the documents that support this Scope Statement (e.g. WBS) . Do not baseline Project Scope until scope is stable. As changes are made in the project, be certain to update the Scope Statement and note the date and source of all changes.  \nNote: In any instance where there is a discrepancy between the Project Charter and the Project Scope Statement, the Scope Statement is considered authoritative.  \n\n| 1.

A preliminary version of this information may be available in the Project Charter. |\n| 3.1 Description of the Project Solution: Describe the product(s) that will be developed or purchased and delivered to the project customer(s) during this project.
