TenthFleet:Project (new)
Goal
Summarize what the intent of this Project is intended to accomplish. This should include information about an achievable end-goal milestone, rather than an open-ended objective that never ends. (Need to add an example, different than what currently exists in other Projects.)
Scope
Describe some details regarding what specific aspects are affected by the actions of this Project. (Need to add an example, different than what currently exists in other Projects.)
Method
Describe the method you and/or the team will use to accomplish the Project. You can summarize the entire method/process in a single sentence, which includes the term for each step, then add a 1-2 sentence detail of each step in a list (numbered or unnumbered). (Need to offer, as examples, a few different methods that are commonly used in Projects.)
Conventions and Rulings
This should provide a summary of newly-encountered issues/hurdles that have presented themselves in the course of completing this Project. Each issue can have it's own bullet point, and should include a summarization of the approach used to achieve success in overcoming that particular hurdle.
Status
The Project's status should be monitored & maintained periodically (define time frame for periodically: daily, every few days, weekly?) by the Project Lead.
Related Projects
Provide a summary of other Projects that in some way affect the successful completion of this particular Project. Keep in mind, these other Projects have their own lifespan (e.g. Active, Inactive, Completed, or possibly other states not yet considered) and end result.
To Do
This should contain a list of things you know that need to be accomplished within the scope of the project, but have not quite reached that point yet. This is in order to capture notes you may have in your head at that moment, but may forget later. This is also a way to communicate specific tasks or information with others working on this particular Project. Remember, if it's not written down, it doesn't exist!
