What Is an Agile Project Charter?
An agile project charter is a guiding document that illustrates the project’s goal, purpose and approach. It is an important document that every project should have prior to the initiation of activities to establish boundaries, and to align team members and stakeholders with the project’s goals and expectations. The agile project charter also provides authorization for the project to proceed and the team requires to have an understanding that the scope of the project may change.
The charter is usually drafted together by the project team members, facilitated by the project manager. The general structure of an agile project charter may include an executive summary, scope and objectives, assumptions, deliverables and milestones, stakeholders, team members, procurements and resources, communication plan, and risks.
