PMBOK® Guide – Sixth Edition: 07-Collecting Requirements and Defining Scope

One of the more important tasks that a project manager performs during the management of a project is identifying the project’s requirements. Determining what is required of a project is necessary to identify work that has to be performed, and to establish metrics that are used to evaluate whether the work is acceptable and successful. In Collecting Requirements and Defining Scope, you’ll learn why it’s critical for project managers to properly and completely identify the requirements for a project as soon as possible. You’ll also learn how project managers identify a project’s requirements, including processes dictated by the Project Management Institute.
