Starting Up a Project - Slides

Starting up a Project

• The purpose of the Starting up a Project process is to ensure that the prerequisites for Initiating a Project are in place by answering the question:
• Do we have a viable and worthwhile project?
• Nothing should be done until certain base information needed to make rational decisions about the commissioning of the project is defined, key roles and responsibilities are resourced and allocated, and a foundation for detailed planning is available.
• Starting Up a Project process objectives are to provide the Project Board with certain information and to prepare the Initiation Stage Plan

Starting Up a Project Process

• The project mandate is usually the only document that exists when this process starts
• This is not enough information for the Project Board to make the decision to start the Initiation Stage.
• Therefore, the purpose of this process is to provide the Project Board with the necessary information to judge if the project is worthwhile.
• They use Project Brief, which will contain information on the Business Case.
• Another important purpose of the Starting Up a Project process is to prevent poor projects from starting up.

Objectives of Starting up a Project

• There is a Business Case (business reason), and this should be documented in the outline Business Case. The Business Case document is not completed until the Initiation Stage.
• Create the Project Brief, which provides information on the scope of the project and most of the information collected during this process.
• The various ways the project can be delivered are evaluated
• and a project approach selected.
• Look at the project approach, which examines
• the best way to go about doing this project and obtaining advice from other
• projects in the form of lessons learned, specialists or even outside knowledge.
