5W3H Principle

The 5W3H Principle is based on a series of questions that will lead to an understanding of the key project characteristics.  

Be sure to document the project characteristic in the Project Plan.

Why is the project being undertaken?

What will be done?

When will it be done?

Who is responsible for accomplishing the project?

Where will the project team be physically or organizationally located?

How will the job be done technically?

How will the project be managed?

How much of each resource is needed?
