Project Objectives

Project objectives define target status at the end of the project, reaching of which is considered necessary for the achievement of planned benefits. They have to be formulated as S.M.A.R.T.

• Specific, with
• Measurable (or at least evaluable) achievement,
• Achievable (recently Acceptable is used regularly as well),
• Realistic and
• Time terminated(bounded).

The evaluation (measurement) occurs at the project closure. However a continuous guardance on the project progress should be kept by monitoring and evaluating.
