- The cost estimates for the project and the basis of estimate for those costs. The customer wants to know how much the product or service will cost
- A Work Breakdown Structure describing the products and their components to be delivered and the work process needed to deliver those products
- An Organizational Breakdown Structure describing who is participating in the project
- A Responsibility Assignment Matrix that connects the participants in the project with the deliverables of the project and identifies who is accountable for each deliverable
- An Integrated time-phased plan and master schedule showing the flow of increasing maturity of the deliverables and the sequence of work needed to produce each deliverable to its planned level of maturity
- A Work Authorization and Control Account process to allocate funding, control expenditures, and assure budget control of the project
- A means of accumulating costs from each work activity (Work Package)
- Analysis of the cost, schedule, and technical performance measures of the project
- A set of management actions that use the analysis information
- Baseline Change Control processes to maintain the integrity of all commitments of the project
- Training needed to perform the processes
- Surveillance needed to assure the process are being applied correctly and the expected benefits from these process are being delivered to the project
