Question
A well-defined project scope has a significant impact on the control phase of a project. It provides a clear understanding of the project's boundaries and deliverables, which in turn, helps in monitoring and controlling the project effectively. It prevents scope creep, ensures that the project stays on track, and that resources are not diluted. It also accelerates the focus on delivery and creates a baseline against unchecked expansion. This results in stronger outcomes with fewer trade-offs.
