Project Brief

The following should be considered for the Project Brief in Agile environments:

• The project definition should be more outcome-oriented rather than output-oriented, since the output (product) will evolve throughout the project.
• The project approach should explain how Agility will be implemented in the project and what kind of Agile delivery method will be used.
• The role descriptions should explain the Agile roles and responsibilities involved in the delivery level.

The suitability of Agile for the project should be assessed during the pre-project period, through the Starting up a Project Process, using The Agilometer. The results will be captured in the Project Brief, and later one, elaborated and moved to the Project Initiation Documentation in the Initiating a Project Process.
