Project Charter Measure
Problem/Goal Financial Impact

Statement
Problem: Describe problem in non-technical terms
 Statement should explain why project is important;  State financial impact of project
why working on it is a priority  Expenses
Goal: Goals communicate “before” and “after”  Investments (inventory, capital, A/R)
conditions  Revenues
 Shift mean, variance, or both?
 Should impact cost, time, quality dimensions  Separate “hard” from “soft” dollars
 Express goals using SMART criteria
 Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Resource  State financial impact of leverage opportunities
Requirements, Time Boundaries (future projects)
 Explain leverage and strategic implications (if any)

• Reduce defects by %
• Reduce long-term DPMO from to .
• Improve short-term Z from to .
*If you do not benchmark, performance standards are based on:
• For a process with ≤ 3 sigma level, decrease % defects by 10x.
• For a process with > 3 sigma level, decrease % defects by 2x.
• Other….please explain (corporate mandate, compliance/legal, VOC data, etc)

Business Impact Details
 Type 1: Describe the chain of causality that shows how you determined the Type 1 savings. (tell
the story with cause–effect relationships, on how the proposed change should create the
desired financial result (savings) in your project )
 Show the financial calculation savings and assumptions used.
 Assumption #1 (i.e. source of data, clear Operational Definitions?)
 Assumption #2 (i.e. hourly rate + incremental benefit cost + travel)
 Type 2: Describe the chain of causality that shows how you determined the Type 2 savings. (tell
the story with cause–effect relationships, on how the proposed change should create the
desired financial result (savings) in your project )
 Show the financial calculation savings and assumptions used.
 Assumption #1 (i.e. Labor rate used, period of time, etc…)
 Assumption #2 (i.e. contractor hrs or FTE, source of data, etc…)
 Describe the Type 3 Business Impact(s) areas and how these were measured
 Assumption #1 (i.e. project is driven by the Business strategy?)
 Assumption #2 (i.e. Customer service rating, employee moral, etc…)
 Other Questions
 Stakeholders agree on the project’s impact and how it will be measured in financial terms?
 What steps were taken to ensure the integrity & accuracy of the data?
 Has the project tracking worksheet been updated?

 Has the team developed clear, unambiguous operational definitions for each measurement and tested them with others to

 Has a clear, reasonable choice been made between gathering new data or taking advantage of existing data?
 Sample size & sampling frequency established to ensure valid representation of the process we’re measuring?
 Measurement system checked for repeatability and reproducibility, potentially including training of data collectors?
 Has the team developed & tested the data collection form for usability and that it can provide consistent, complete data?
 Has baseline performance and process capability been established? How large is the gap between current performance
and the customer (or project) requirements?
 Has the team been able to identify any ‘Quick Wins’?
 Has the team begun to fill in the financial benefits worksheets for type 1 and 2 savings?
 Have any opportunities to do Kaizen projects been identified to accelerate momentum and results?
 Have ‘learnings’ todate required modification of the Project Charter? If so, have these changes been approved by the

 New risks to project success have been identified, added to the Risk Mitigation Plan, & mitigation strategy put in place?
