Project scope
Project Management Professional glossary · Project Management Professional
Definition
The work performed to deliver a product, service, or result with the specified features and functions.
Project scope in plain English
Think of building a house from a nested checklist: rooms break into walls, walls into tasks, and every child line has to add up to the parent — miss a line and something never gets built, add a random deck and you've snuck in unpaid work. Project scope is how PMP keeps that checklist honest. Hold onto this precise job description: The work performed to deliver a product, service, or result with the specified features and functions. On a stem, name whether Project scope is about timing, ownership, measurement, or delivery style — then eliminate the answer that borrows a cousin concept from the wrong phase.
