Project Charter

A sponsor- or initiator-approved document that officially launches the project and empowers the project manager to use organizational resources to perform project work.

Key Points

  • Issued by the sponsor or initiator to formally start the project.
  • Names the project manager and grants authority to allocate and direct resources.
  • Summarizes high-level purpose, objectives, scope boundaries, and key stakeholders.
  • Links the project to the business case and strategy, enabling detailed planning to begin.

Example

The CIO issues a charter for a CRM upgrade, appoints a project manager, and authorizes the use of IT staff, vendor support, and a preliminary budget so the team can start planning and securing resources.
