A Pretty Good Project Plan for Small Projects

A Pretty Good Project Plan for Small Projects
The Project Management Plan represents how the project will be executed, monitored and controlled. Below you will find a pretty good project management plan template for small projects. Our goal was to distill the very large (and, at times, overwhelming) amount of information typically found in a Project Management Plan into a smaller package.
This Project Management Plan includes the following sections:
  • Project Charter: The Project Charter broadly defines the project as it has been established by the Project Sponsor.
  • Project Management Plan Detail: The Plan detail looks at process that will support management of project integration, communication, risk, stakeholders and quality.
  • Acceptance & Agreement: As a milestone, the Project Management Plan typically requires approval before it can be considered final.

Our work at Craftsman Technology Group primarily focuses on the nonprofit sector. While we have attempted to streamline this plan significantly, we have maintained a heavy emphasis on Stakeholder Management throughout to reflect the special emphasis typically require to deliver a successful project to the sector.

Conclusion

A Project Management Plan is a critical document as it describes how the project will be monitored, executed and controlled. This abridged plan is intended to provide sufficient detail to manage an effective project, but deliver at the scale of a small project.
