Sub-Process D - PIP Initiated

Objective

Transfer ownership of the Project Definition Worksheet (PDW) to a Design Team and generate organizational awareness of the project and its importance. In cases when the PDW defines one process, it will serve as the Design Team's Charter. If several processes are defined in the PDW, the Design Team may wish to draft "mini" PDWs for each specific process as the "master" PDW may not include enough detail. Design Team chartering is completed during Sub-Process F-IS Process Validated.

It will take approximately 2 to 3 days to complete each key activity and a total elapsed time of approximately 1 week to complete this sub-process.


Your project may be competing with several other priorities for the attention of Design Team members and other Stakeholders. It is important for the Sponsors to establish awareness and ownership of project as quickly as possible.
