About this project

Open

Although writing a project description will vary somewhat depending on the type of project, the basic process is the same. The following 10 steps are key to writing a good project description.

Summarize: Write a one- or two-paragraph explanation of what the project aims to accomplish. Avoid delving deep into background or past projects. A good project summary will not only serve as your elevator speech, but will also help you clarify larger issues with your plan.
Define: Describe the problem or opportunity and how the project will address it.
Set goals: Identify SMART project objectives, defined as follows:
Specific: Answer who, what, when, where, and why.
Measurable: Include metrics for defining success.
Achievable: Set goals that are possible to accomplish with the available resources.
Relevant: Goals should be aligned with your organization’s mission.
Time-bound: Include intermediate and final deadlines for each goal.
Explain: Briefly explain your methodology. Include any key technologies or project management techniques you’ll use and why they’re appropriate.
Measure: Identify the project deliverables. How will you measure success and evaluate the project?
Schedule: Include a general timeline, with project phases and milestones. Be sure to note any important deadlines.
Budget: Include the total estimated cost of the project and how much you have budgeted. (Note that this shouldn’t be a line item budget.) Use a project budget template for a more detailed breakdown of budgeted and actual project expenses.
Get feedback: Seek feedback from key stakeholders, customers, and anyone impacted by the project for feedback. Ask them to explain the project in their own words to get a sense of how clearly you’ve communicated the vision.
Proofread: Have someone else proofread the project description. In addition to spelling and grammatical errors, ask them to look for missing details that are significant to the project.
Revise: Update and revise the document as the project progresses. Treat the project description as a living document.

Project overview

This is the implementation of a new IT system limited to a small group of people, which will be very different to the building of a new airport runway, which will have far more influences that need to be considered i.e. political, regulatory, environment, emerging economies etc
