Question 209

Which of the following document is created first after project is awarded and statement of work is handed over to the project manager?

    Correct Answer: D

    The first document created after a project is awarded and the statement of work is handed over to the project manager is the Project Charter. The Project Charter formally authorizes the existence of a project and provides the project manager with the authority to apply organizational resources to project activities. It establishes the foundation for the project, setting out the objectives, scope, and stakeholders, and it must be created before other documents like the Project Scope Statement, Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), or WBS dictionary.

Discussion
NuriaIzardOption: C

I think the project charter must be created by the PM so first of all should be the Project scope. I would vote for C

Ugo_jayOption: D

The answer is correct. The question says 'a document' and not a 'task'. A project charter is a document that houses the project scope statement, but I understand that this is not a BABOK question.

SVK2310Option: D

Ans:D The project charter is drafted after the project proposal has been approved and right before the project scope is defined. It follows the natural order of approvals and hierarchy for budget approvals.
