Step 1: Project Initiation

Type: Fill Checklist

Project Initiation is the first critical step in the business workflow. It marks the beginning of a new project and sets the stage for all subsequent activities. In this phase, the project's objectives, scope, timeline, budget, and stakeholders are identified and documented. Key tasks involved include gathering requirements from clients or stakeholders, defining project scope and deliverables, creating a project schedule and milestones, allocating resources, and establishing communication channels. The output of Project Initiation is a comprehensive project charter that outlines the project's overall strategy and plan. This document serves as a guide for all subsequent steps in the workflow, ensuring that everyone involved in the project is aligned with its objectives and deliverables.
