Project Initiation Documentation

⊿ Point. {R} Glossary. ◢ Keyword: P. ◥ University. {q} PhD. {tr} Training. ⬛ ILM. ILM: Unit 1. ⚫ NI. ☗ UU. ⬛ ILM. Project Initiation Documentation. The Project Initiation Documentation bundles the information which was acquired through the Starting up a Project and Initiating a Project processes in a PRINCE2 controlled project environment. Since PRINCE2's 2009 revision it explicitly renamed the Document part of the initial definition into Documentation, which means that the methodology not so much seeks a master document describing all of the project at hand, but more the collection of documents until Authorizing a Project up to then created.

Keeping that in mind, the Project Initiation Document, or PID, is a PRINCE2 term representing the plan of approach in project management. It is assembled from a series of other documents, including the business case, the Terms of Reference, the Communication Plan, the risk register, the Project Tolerances, the project plan, and any specific project controls or inspections as part of a departmental quality plan or common project approach. References[edit] See also[edit] External links[edit] DIP - Project Initiation Document. CC Learning - PID. PRINCE2 PID Template. With a Project Initiation Document (PID) you define the project’s scope and direction and use it as the basis for its authorisation, management and assessing its success. The document details all the foreseeable areas of the project, such as goals, scope, risks, controls and budget.

The PID must contain several pieces of information that are vital to the success of a project. If these areas aren’t defined clearly from the outset, there is a high chance that the project will fail. The PID should cover the following areas: Project DefinitionProject ApproachBusiness CaseProject Management Team StructureRole DescriptionsQuality Management StrategyConfiguration Management StrategyRisk Management StrategyCommunication Management StrategyProject PlanProject ControlsTailoring of PRINCE2 Our PRINCE2 Foundation covers all your need to learn to use a PID and other PRINCE2 tools and techniques.

Project Definition The project definition explains what the project needs to achieve, including: Project Plan. Department of Finance and Personnel - PID. Project Initiation Document The Project Initiation Document (PID) is effectively the "contract" for the project (between the project manager and the project board.) It should set out, as a minimum:- What the project is aiming to achieve,Why it is important to achieve it,Who will be involved in managing the process and what are their responsibilities, andHow and when will the project be undertaken. The PID has to answer the above questions to a sufficient level of detail to help maintain control of the project.
