What is Project Scope?
A Projects Scope outlines what work will be done/accomplished as part of the project and also outlines what would not be done as part of the current project.
Why is Scope Definition Important?
Do I need to say why scope definition is important? Without a list of what needs to be done, how can you expect a team to execute a project? Without knowing what to do, the team will be lost and eventually the project will be a failure.
The Scope Management Plan contains all the details of the project scope and what is expected out of the project
The Project Manager is responsible for creating the Project Management Plan for the project.
There are not different types of a project plan but different parts of a project plan. The project plan or the project management plan as it is also called is the output of the Project Planning Phase. It has multiple parts that include subsidiary plans. The subsidiary plans that are part of the project plan are: a. Scope Management Plan b. Time Management Plan c. Cost Management Plan d. Human Resource Management Plan e. etc
The project management plan process covers all activities that identify and direct the actions of many other processes in the planning process group. Developing the project management plan includes coordinating the development of the subsidiary plans and incorporating them into the complete project plan. The main purpose of the project management plan is to define how the project is to progress from its beginning to completion. In short, the project management plan provides the high-level game plan for how the project moves through its lifecycle. PMI defines many potential subsidiary plans that make up the overall project management plan. These subsidiary plans provide the specific details for managing each aspect of the project from initiation through closure. The subsidiary project management plans could include • Project scope management plan • Requirements management plan • Schedule management plan • Cost management plan • Quality management plan • Process improvement plan • Human resource plan • Communication management plan • Risk management plan • Procurement management plan
The subsidiary project management plans could include • Project scope management plan • Requirements management plan • Schedule management plan • Cost management plan • Quality management plan • Process improvement plan • Human resource plan • Communication management plan • Risk management plan • Procurement management plan
A Baseline Project Plan is the Project Management Plan that is created by the Project Manager and is approved by the Project Sponsor and the Senior Management. The Approved/baseline plan outlines how the project will be handled from start to finish and is like the bible for the project

The output from many common project management software packages do not qualify as a project plan. They are a good start, but a true project plan is made up of much more information than just scheduling information. This process requires a focused effort to create a plan that incorporates all known information about a project.
