📋 Defining the scope of the project involves determining which requirements will be included and excluded from the project.
📦 Creating the project scope involves identifying the major deliverables and breaking them down into smaller tasks.
🔍 The scope is determined based on the defined requirements and involves various intermediate tasks and testing.
00:06:34 Understand scope area of PMBOK in record time. Control scope process ensures executed work aligns with defined scope. Avoid 'gold-plating' and implement organized change control.
📚 The scope management area in PMBOK includes four planning processes and two monitoring and control processes.
🔍 Control Scope ensures that the executed work aligns with the defined scope and prevents scope creep.
🔄 Integrated Change Control analyzes the impacts of changes and requires re-planning and re-approval before proceeding with the project.
