What does the project scope statement define?

  1. The work included in the project as well as the work that will not be included

  2. The budget for the project

  3. The timeline for the project

  4. The stakeholders involved in the project

The correct answer is: The work included in the project as well as the work that will not be included

The project scope statement defines the work that is included in the project as well as the work that will not be included. It clearly outlines the boundaries of the project, detailing what is within the project's scope and what is outside of it. This is essential for ensuring that all project team members and stakeholders have a clear understanding of the project's objectives and deliverables. Options B, C, and D are incorrect: - The budget for the project is not defined by the project scope statement; it is typically outlined in the project budget. - The timeline for the project is not defined by the project scope statement either; it is usually detailed in the project schedule. - While stakeholders may be identified in the project scope statement, it is not the primary purpose of this document. The primary focus is on defining the project's deliverables and boundaries.
