PROJECT DOCUMENTATION AND monday.com

Publish date:

Project documentation is a collation of information & documents that captures all the deets about a project. Generally, a specialist professional known as a project manager gathers the required documents for every stage of a project, such as files related to quotes, objectives, needs, design, implementation, cost, testing, deployment, and support. The reason for project documentation is to locate relevant information in a unified location to make referencing & communication simpler.

The advantages of product documentation:

  1. Enhanced communication - Documenting the project makes sure that it is transparent and everyone involved is on the same page, making updates on varied milestones, schedules, and deliverables a simple affair.

  2. Improved collaboration between teams - With all documents related to a project collated and available to members from different teams at the same time, collaboration is improved. Project documentation ends team silos. Everyone can see what everyone else is assigned and the progress made. This leads to everyone working in tandem to meet the goals assigned for the project.

  3. Better accountability from project members – Documentation of each step of a project means ensuring that the many stakeholders are liable for their duties and responsibilities.

  4. Various documents that are needed in project management and are not limited to:

  5. Project charter: It lists the scope, goals, components, and stakeholders, and is the main reference for the project

  6. Statement of work: An agreement between the two parties that determines the scope & goals of a project, deployed when working with external parties

  7. Project status reports: These reports aid project managers monitor the latest updates on varied tasks to see the health of a project

  8. Risk management plan: A skeleton overview of potential risks and speed breakers in a project with contingencies to deal with them, in case they surface

  9. Issue tracker: A route for project managers to monitor various issues that surface at any time, that prevent them from escalating in the future

  10. Technical document: A document containing the details for using, designing, or developing a technical system along with information on functions and safety

  11. Rollout plan: It lists how a system will be implemented in a firm including steps, training, and phases
