4.2 Dev Project Management Plan (revisit)

ok, there is money available somewhere, free money look at grant. Look at the grant purpose eg. if it for R&D, commercialization increase contents, uplifting social digital interaction etc.
Wow free money isn't,
well not really free and easy, you got to work on it, first let start by an idea. Will the idea support the grant objective and requirement, will the idea fulfill the existing needs.
Grant sponsors if not a projectize organization, most of them are very much a strong matrix organization.

Than we need to look at the requirements, or study the grant charter, what make them give you this free money and (what area to twist). This is well by filling all forms and in general how we will spend the money to meet the stakeholder requirements. In a way we are creating project requirements.

Than 5.2 Defining Scope, the statement to show the area of grant development, can be the functionality scope, geographical implementation or by target group that will be benefitting the product.

5.3 Create WBS - work breakdown structure is subdividing the project deliverables and project work into smaller more manageable components.

Above are all well under Project Scope Management. Disclaimer this might not be relevant to PMBOK 4th Ed. pg 47, I just type to keep my thinking process going in relation to what I am doing right now.

Key words that might need clarification like
RTM
Statement of Scope
EEF
