About this example
This example is the project proposal a digital consultancy in Toronto sends an industrial distributor that wants to replace spreadsheets and inboxes with a CRM: 60 sales reps, about 180,000 records to migrate, an integration with the company's ERP, and a go-live 14 weeks after kickoff, priced in Canadian dollars with 13% HST.
A project proposal has to show that the project is understood and under control, so this one follows the order a sponsor reads in. It opens with the background, the objectives and how success will be measured, then the project at a glance. The scope lists what is in and out, and a risk table names the four things most likely to go wrong and what will be done about each. The plan runs in phases with tasks and deliverables, the budget is a fixed fee per phase with HST, and three payment milestones are tied to sign-offs. The team, terms on governance, change requests, acceptance and data, and an approval block close the proposal.
Who it is for
