Avoiding
'Uh Ohs'
Recognizing the sources of scope creep prevents small and large capital
projects from getting out of hand.
BY MIKE STEUR
onsider this scenario: As you have for the past
eight weeks, you and your bakery team of experts
are about to convene to continue discussions on
procurement and installation progress of a new
line at your plant. Yet as you enter the conference room,
you notice John from marketing is sitting at the table.
Even though John's group has not been part of the meetings to date, his manager now thinks their department
should have been represented. And they have a few comments, like, "Oh, by the way, we need the line to produce
..." And you think, "Uh oh." The conditions are now perfect for scope creep to set in.
Does this sound familiar?
Generally defined, scope creep is the gradual addition of unchecked changes in a project's scope that ultimately create project
cost overruns and schedule delays.
Scope creep is triggered by a set of
common causes such as the identification of new project requirements
or a team that believes a project
will be simple but discover along
the way that it is more complex
than expected.
Of course, not all project
changes lead to scope creep.
Beneficial scope changes usually
add value to a project and probably receive executive approval because they are strategically focused
C
and may even provide improved return on investment.
Increasing flexibility of a production line to manufacture a different product, for example, might foster new
sales opportunities that did not exist at the time of the
project's approval. Such changes go beyond just being
nice-to-haves and may reduce operating costs, save
ᮣ "360° planning" is a tool used to minimize
the potential for scope creep by helping team
members view a project from all aspects, including stakeholder perspectives, needs, expectations,
solutions, actions and results while also enabling
teams to identify the critical success factors for
the project.
