Project Charter – (Kitchen Heaven)
Scope List what the project will and will not address that is not covered in purpose and outcomes (e.g., this project addresses units that report into the Office of Executive Vice President. Units that report into the Provosts Office are not included) An excerpt from Dirk's scope statement is as follows: "The project's goal is to open the 50th Kitchen Heaven store in Colorado Springs by July 1st." Josh Wilkins, in Facilities, informed me that the store buildout will require a total of one hundred and twenty days when we met. This involves making certain that the shelves are set up properly and prepared for product stocking.
Major Known Risks (including significant Assumptions)
Identify obstacles that may cause the project to fail. Risk Risk Rating (Hi, Med, Lo)
Most desirable location and in the right price range
High
Shipment for products availability
Med
POS hardware server availability
Med
Contractor availability
Med
Product availability
Med
Shelving and fixtures availability
Low
Constraints
List a
ny conditions that may limit the project team’s options with respect to resources, personnel, or schedule (e.g., predetermined budget or project end date, limit on number of staff that may be assigned to the project).
The first of July will fall on a day that will align with a local house and garden show.
External Dependencies
Will project success depend on coordination of efforts between the project team and one or more other individuals or groups? Has everyone involved agreed to this interaction?
The construction industry, the landowner's consent, and the city of Colorado Springs' approval of the permits are all examples of external dependencies.
