Project Management Plan Template
Who is responsible for accepting the final project deliverable and approves acceptance of
project scope
We have a detailed Scope Management Plan available on our website which can be included as
an appendix to the Project Management Plan for larger or more complex projects. Be sure to
review it and determine if it's necessary for managing your project.
Scope management for the SmartVoice Project will be the sole responsibility of the Project
Manager. The scope for this project is defined by the Scope Statement, Work Breakdown
Structure (WBS) and WBS Dictionary. The Project Manager, Sponsor, and Stakeholders will
establish and approve documentation for measuring project scope which includes deliverable
quality checklists and work performance measurements.
Proposed scope changes may be initiated by the Project Manager, Stakeholders or any member
of the project team. All change requests will be submitted to the Project Manager who will then
evaluate the requested scope change. Upon acceptance of the scope change request the Project
Manager will submit the scope change request to the Change Control Board and Project Sponsor
for acceptance. Upon approval of scope changes by the Change Control Board and Project
Sponsor the Project Manager will update all project documents and communicate the scope
change to all stakeholders. Based on feedback and input from the Project Manager and
Stakeholders, the Project Sponsor is responsible for the acceptance of the final project
deliverables and project scope.
The Project Sponsor is responsible for formally accepting the project’s final deliverable. This
acceptance will be based on a review of all project documentation, testing results, beta trial
results, and completion of all tasks/work packages and product functionality.

This section provides a general framework for the approach which will be taken to create the
project schedule. Effective schedule management is necessary for ensuring tasks are completed
on time, resources are allocated appropriately, and to help measure project performance. This
section should include discussion of the scheduling tool/format, schedule milestones, and
schedule development roles and responsibilities.
Be sure to check out the detailed Schedule Management Plan available on our website. The
separate Schedule Management Plan is suitable for larger projects or projects where the schedule
management is more formalized.
Project schedules for the SmartVoice Project will be created using MS Project 2007 starting with
the deliverables identified in the project’s Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). Activity
definition will identify the specific work packages which must be performed to complete each
deliverable. Activity sequencing will be used to determine the order of work packages and
assign relationships between project activities. Activity duration estimating will be used to
calculate the number of work periods required to complete work packages. Resource estimating
will be used to assign resources to work packages in order to complete schedule development.
