simple project, the Project Manager combined the Starting Up a Project process and the Initiating a Project
process. No Project Brief has been produced. Instead the Project Manager used the project mandate to
produce a simple Project Initiation Documentation (PID). The PID includes the Business Case, a product
checklist and several Product Descriptions, Including the Project Product Description. Short sections are also
included for each of the strategies and the controls to be applied. The Project Manager has elected to use the
Daily Log to record all risks, issues, lessons and quality – results.
After the initiation stage there will be two further stages during which a small number of Work Packages will be
authorized. While these are being managed, the Project Manager will hold regular checkpoints, which will
support the production of weekly Highlight Reports to the Project Board.
