Project Chartering | Glossary

Definition

A Project Charter is an important document that allows the identification of the scope, budget, technology and resources behind the project. In an Agile Project, a charter is usually a very lightweight documentation, often a single sheet. It is a flexible document that offers the team to respond to changes, as well as deliver high quality product in a fast rate.

A Charter in Agile, is devoted to the single-minded approach to being simple. There are typically four typical components of an Agile charter :

  • Establish the norms of the Team
  • Develop and elevator speech
  • Create a Product Box
  • Capture Success Criteria
