About This Project Charter

A Project Charter is the critical document that formally authorizes a project's existence and provides the project manager with the authority to use organizational resources. This template helps you define the project's "North Star" by outlining the business case, scope, key stakeholders, and high-level timeline. It is essential for aligning the team and sponsors before detailed planning begins, ensuring that everyone agrees on the project's purpose, deliverables, and success criteria.
