Hello everybody,

today I want to write a notice about Project estimation. One of the important facetcs of making estimates is to make document, in which to describe definitions of project, which need to be estimated.

For this purpose I will create Word document with title page, table of contents and following categories:

In order to make good estimate it's good to clarify with potential stakeholder following categories:

1. Purpose
2. Goals/Objectives
3. Success Criteria
4. What's in/out of scope
5. Assumptions
6. Recommended Approach
7. Business Drivers
8. Budget
9. Schedule
10. Return on Investment
11. Constraints
12. Risks
13. Stakeholders
14. Preliminary Schedule
15. Preliminary Estimates
16. Policies and Standards
17. Legal Regulatory
18. Competitor Drivers

If to clarify those matters with potential product owner then to make estimate will be much easier
