Project Charter

Revision <6.0>

<Note: The Project Charter is created during process 4.1 "Develop Project Charter" as described in A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide). This template is derived from a sample template authored by the Project Management Institute (PMI): Document Code: PMBOK 4.1.3.1. Text in brackets and/or blue is designed to explain or define required content and meant to be deleted and replaced by your specific project information before submission. Make sure to update all portions (i.e. Table of Contents) with each submission.

The Project Charter is the document issued by the project initiator or sponsor that formally authorizes the existence of a project and provides the project manager with the authority to apply organizational resources to project activities. It documents the high-level information on the project and on the product, service or result the project is intended to satisfy.

The Project Charter is developed on the basis of the Business Documents, the Agreements on project implementation and other information like enterprise environmental factors and organizational process assets.

The Charter is developed by individual(s) external to the project, such as the sponsor, project management office (PMO) or the portfolio governing body. The project initiator or sponsor should be at a level that is appropriate to procure funding for the project. They either develop the Charter themselves or delegate this responsibility to the Project Manager. The initiator’s signature on the Project Charter authorizes the project.>

1. 1. This document refers to the project "<Project Name>", which is implemented by the organization "<Organization Name>".

   2. The Project Charter formulates the practical requirements and documents the high-level description of the product, service or other deliverable that should meet these requirements and will be result of the project.

   3. The Project Charter is issued and signed by the Initiator or Sponsor of the project and formally legitimized the existence of the project. It provides the Project Manager with the authority to use the organizational assets in the project operations.

1. Terms, Notations, Abbreviations

<This section should contain the definitions of all terms and abbreviations required to properly interpret this document, arranged in alphabetical order. This information can be presented in the form of the following table, or as a reference to a Project Glossary in the Communications Management Plan.>

1. Project Purpose

<This section briefly describes the purpose of the project and its justification. The justification describes the necessary information from a business standpoint to determine whether or not the project is worth the required investment. Justification describes one or more of the following factors:

• Market demand (e.g., a car company authorizing a project to build more fuel-efficient cars in response to gasoline shortages)

• Organizational need (e.g., a training company authorizing a project to create a new course to increase its revenues)

• Customer request (e.g., an electric utility authorizing a project to build a new substation to serve a new industrial park)

• Technological advance (e.g., an electronics firm authorizing a new project to develop a faster, cheaper and smaller laptop after advances in computer memory and electronics technology)

• Legal requirement (e.g., a paint manufacturer authorizing a project to establish guidelines for handling toxic materials)

• Ecological impacts (e.g., a company authorizing a project to lessen its environmental impact)

• Social need (e.g., a nongovernmental organization in a developing country authorizing a project to provide potable water systems, latrines and sanitation education to communities suffering from high rates of cholera).

These factors may also be called incentives, opportunities or business requirements. The basic point of all these factors is that management should decide what the response should be to them, and what projects should be authorized and fixed in the Charter.>

1. Measurable Project Goals and Objectives

<This section describes the business goals and the project objectives aimed at achieving those goals. Business goals should be measurable and explain WHY the organization is doing the project (i.e. increase profits/market share; decrease costs/waste). Project objectives should explain WHAT the project should attain, including any related success criteria. All project objectives should be traceable to a business goal, and all project goals should have at least one project objective. >

Business Goal 1:

• Project Objective 1.1:

• Project Objective 1.3

Business Goal 2:

• Project Objective 2.2

Business Goal 3:

1. High-level Project Description and Boundaries

1. High-Level Requirements

<This section documents the requirements that satisfy the needs, wishes and expectations of the Customer, Sponsor and other project participants. Requirements are the certain conditions or capabilities that must be met or possessed by a system, product, service, result or component to satisfy a contract, standards, specifications or other formally imposed documents.

Requirements include the quantified and documented needs, wants and expectations of the Sponsor, Customer and other stakeholders of the project. The Project Charter contains high-level requirements only. A complete list requirements should be developed later in the Project Management plan as they become more concrete during the gradual elaboration of the project.

1. Overall Project Risk

<This section describes the high-level risks and also provides a brief description of the project risk management implementation and the risk tolerance levels of the project Sponsor and Customer.

Please note that the Project Charter contains high-level risks only. The complete list of risks should be presented in the Risk Register.>

1. High Level Constraints and Assumptions

<This section describes the high-level assumptions and constraints of the project. Assumptions are things believe to be true (with or without evidence). Constraints are limitations placed upon the project that the project manager and team must work with.

Constraints:

• Constraint 1

• Constraint 2

• Constraint 3

Assumptions

• Assumption 1

• Assumption 2

• Assumption 3

<This section lists the key tangible product outputs (deliverables or services) to be provided by this project. Explain the criteria that will be used by the product users to determine if the project can be accepted.>

1. Preapproved Financial Resources

<This section contains a high level (summary budget) or rough order of magnitude estimate. Ideally, a summary budget includes the cost for labor, supplies/equipment, and management reserve.

Please note that the Project Charter contains summary budget only. The itemized budget should be presented in the Cost Baseline.>

1. Key Stakeholder List

<This section specifies what conditions need to be met in order to close or to cancel the project or phase (e.g., documented approvals, completed documents, completed deliverables).>

<This section contains information about the assigned Project Manager, responsibility and authority level. A Project Manager is identified and assigned as early in the project as is feasible, preferably while the project charter is being developed and always prior to the start of planning. It is recommended that the Project Manager participate in the development of the Project Charter because this document provides him/her with the authority to use the organization assets to complete the project and responsibility for the project objectives achievement.>
