Initiation & Planning – develop the project charter, scope statement, work breakdown structure, integrated schedule, resource plan and budget; obtain required approvals.
Scope & Change Control – manage scope, requirements and change requests through a defined change control process, assessing impacts on schedule, cost and risk.
Schedule, Budget & Resource Management – monitor progress against baselines, forecast variances, manage resource allocation and take corrective action as required.
Risk, Issue & Decision Management – maintain RAID logs, define mitigation plans and drive timely decisions with accountable owners.
Vendor & Contract Management – manage vendor deliverables, performance and invoicing against statements of work, ensuring accountability across MSP and third-party partners.
Quality Management – define acceptance criteria and quality checkpoints, and ensure deliverables are reviewed and signed off before stage-gate progression.
Stakeholder Engagement – maintain a stakeholder and communications plan, run regular project meetings and keep business and technical stakeholders aligned.
Status Reporting – provide regular status, financial and risk reporting to the DTP Lead and DTP governance forums.
