Product Scope

The set of characteristics, features, and capabilities that define a product, service, or result and explain what it is expected to do.

Key Points

  • Describes the deliverable itself; project scope describes the work to create it.
  • Captured in requirements and specifications and may be part of the scope baseline.
  • Validated against acceptance criteria through reviews, testing, and customer approval.
  • Any change to product features must follow formal change control to avoid scope creep.

Example

For an e-commerce website project, product scope might include a searchable catalog, secure checkout, order tracking, mobile-responsive design, and integration with a payment gateway. These features define what the website must do for users.

Advanced Project Management — Measuring Project Performance

Move beyond guesswork and status reporting. This course helps you measure real progress, spot problems early, and make confident decisions using proven project performance techniques. If you manage complex projects and want clearer visibility and control, this course is built for you.

This is not abstract theory. You’ll work step by step through Earned Value Management (EVM), learning how cost, schedule, and scope come together to show true performance. You’ll build a solid foundation in EVM concepts, understand why formulas work, and learn how performance data actually supports leadership decisions.

You’ll master Work Breakdown Structures (WBS), control accounts, and budget baselines, then apply core EVM metrics like EAC, TCPI, and variance analysis. Through a detailed real-world example, you’ll forecast outcomes, analyze trends, and understand contingencies and management reserves with confidence.

Learn how experienced project managers monitor performance, communicate results clearly, and take corrective action before projects slip. With practical exercises and hands-on analysis, you’ll be ready to apply EVM immediately. Enroll now and start managing performance with clarity and control.
