Which of the following is NOT true about the Project Statement of Work?
  1. Describes the projects needs
  2. The statement of work outlines the scope of the project
  3. It is created by the project sponsor
  4. It needs to be completed before the project charter
  5. Clarifies stakeholders and their roles
Explanation
Answer: D - An incomplete statement of work can be used as an input to help create the project charter. The other statements are all true.

The statement of work exists to provide clear direction to projects and project managers in the initial stages. The statement of work, frequently referred to as a SoW, lists key strategic goals, constraints, success criteria, and organizational framework. Furthermore, the SoW clarifies responsibilities and specific roles of project stakeholders in a relationship.

Key Take Away: The reason an incomplete SoW is often used is that a good project manager can come in with ideas and strategic knowledge that can substantially shape a project.
