Building a Project Plan

The first step in building a project plan is to validate the elements of the project definition document. Depending upon the length of time between acceptance of the project definition and the start of detail planning, you may need to confirm that there have been no changes in the purpose, objectives, success criteria, and scope of the project with your key stakeholders.

tip

As you visit with stakeholders during detail planning, make sure to validate their project definition understanding and expectation.

Re-confirm that the business case for the project is still valid after the detailed project planning exercise is complete.

The formality and detail of each Project Plan section or supplemental plan will vary depending on project need, project size, industry, and organizational culture.
