Deliverables - Overview
A deliverable is a tangible and measurable result, outcome, or product that must be produced to complete a task or project. Deliverable is a work product that you deliver during the project duration or end of the project. Deliverables are generally due at end of each phase.
Typically, the project team and project stakeholders agree on the project deliverables before the project begins.
Deliverables can be documents such as Project Design Document, Process document or Operational of new router as per specifications.
MS Project Server 2007 supports Deliverables feature. This feature allows us to manage the project deliverables from MS Project Professional 2007 and Windows SharePoint Services.
Please remember, Project Server 2007 does not allow to define the deliverables until you have project workspace is associated with the project plan. It means, your project plan should be published first before you start working on deliverables.
When you publish the plan first time, you will see the option on creating project workspace.
To manage deliverables from MS Project Professional, you should have access to the project plan.
Deliverables can be also viewed and managed from Project Workspace (Windows SharePoint Services). This is useful if your delivery manager and client manager also responsible in determining the deliverables for your project.
