PMBOK 5.1 Plan Scope Management and PMBOK 5.2 Collect Requirements

This episode of Project Management Mondays will cover the scope management knowledge area’s first two processes : PMBOK 5.1 plan scope management and PMBOK 5.2 collect requirements.

PMBOK 5.1 contains two subsidiary project management plans: scope management plan and requirements management plan. In addition, there is the scope baseline containing the project scope statement, work breakdown structure (WBS) and WBS dictionary. PMBOK 5.2 covers the importance of collecting requirements.
