Project Statement .
What is a Project Statement? A project usually begins with a vague need expressed by a sponsor (internal or external). The purpose of a project statement is to define the problem to be solved so that work can begin on the project. Once the project is completed, the sponsor will be satisfied with the result. Beginning of your Interim (final) report
Stages of Building a Project Statement Contact key individuals in the sponsoring organization (or the internal division). Arrange to meet with sponsor Background research – before visit Ask questions Listen Take good notes in your design notebook – write stuff down!! At conclusion of meeting, summarize and restate what you heard
Format for the Project Statement Cover Page Body: Project Statement with all the necessary elements (as described before) clearly labeled. Additional Information: Identify key technical areas/skills used in the project.
Body of Statement Statement of Need Requirements Basic Limitations -Introduction/Background Requirements -What is the project goal(s)? Basic Limitations -Metrics/Specifications/other data Verification Approach -What are you going to do? Schedule
Elements of a Project Statement Statement of Need Preliminary Requirements Basic Limitations Other Data Verification Approach Schedule
Statement of Need A couple of paragraphs Include brief overview of sponsor Discusses the problem/need Concise – but detailed enough so you can talk to it Does NOT include a solution
Preliminary Requirements Describes the requirements broadly Level of detail for initial sponsor meeting Does not require a detailed spec list
Basic Limitations Describes known constraints Notes applicable codes/restrictions Discusses undesirable features May include simple sketches
Other Data Includes relevant information that does not fit in other sections such as that about: equipment, facilities and/or policies of sponsoring organization software*****
Specifications (defined) List the requirements that project must meet. There are different types of specifications, including those for hardware and software.
Specifications (warnings) In general, you should NOT specify any components. However, if modifying an existing device [hardware or software], describe the current device in as much detail as possible.
Technical Specifications Contains in a tabular form all of the facts & figures needed to undertake the design project.
Specifications Format (example) Mechanical Parameters (sample) Button: Size 5” x 5’’ (min.) Actuation Force 0.001 N (max.) Weight: 5000 lbs. (max.) Durability: Should survive 10-ft. drops. Electrical Parameters Battery Life 6 months (continuous use) Display: Number of Characters 30 (minimum) Size 2’ min. height x 1.75’ min. width Illumination Visible in strong sunlight
Specifications Format (cont.) Environmental Location Basement (6’ underground) Temp. Range -40 to +700 F Storage temp. -273 to 1000 F Moisture?, Corrosive liquids?, Vibrations? Software Execution time 34.5 seconds (max.) Termination/Reset 1 button Interrupts Standard ^C Memory 4.5 MB Platform Windows PC
