Working sequence
- Set the purpose, evidence boundary, accountable owner, and review cadence.
- Complete the fields from current evidence and make assumptions explicit.
- Use the result to support a review conversation, not as an automatic decision.
- Record the resulting action, decision, or next review date with the appropriate owner.
Inputs and method
Complete the fields below with evidence suitable for review. The tool structures the work; professional judgement remains necessary.
- Initiative name
- Sponsor or accountable role
- Intended outcome
- Scope and exclusions
- Constraints and assumptions
Fictional learning scenario: Use the labelled fictional example in the online tool as a learning starter; replace it with authorised local evidence.
Review and decision prompt
Can the sponsor confirm the intended outcome, authority, scope boundary, and constraints before planning starts?
Next action:Record the sponsor decision and use the agreed scope and outcome as the baseline for planning.
Common failure mode
A charter becomes decorative when it lists activities but omits the decision rights, exclusions, or success evidence.
