Trident University The Impact of Scope Creep on Project Success Discussion
Scope creep?refers to the tiny, incremental change or addition of requirements to an already defined project so that, for example, a project that began by trying to produce a single ham sandwich ended up trying to produce a 3-course meal for 20 people.
Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words. The minimum word count is just one variable in how I grade our discussion posts. I am looking for substantial, relevant, helpful, well-organized content that covers this week’s topics and includes the references you used.
These posts should be your thoughts, your words, and any external material should only be up to 20% of your post. Plagiarism means either no references, where you imply that all the content is yours, or when more than 20% of the content of the post is not yours, even if properly cited. This is true for all UOPX assignments.
- Describe a time when scope creep happened on a project you were involved with. The project you describe may be from work (such as being affected by an IT upgrade project), school (such as participating in a team assignment), or personal life (such as planning a wedding).
- Who was responsible for adding requirements?
- Who was responsible for accepting them?
- Were the additional requirements introduced early in the project process or late?
- What were the outcomes? That is, was the expanded scope implemented or not?
- Did the project come in over budget? Was it delayed? Was it cancelled?
