Year: 2022
Type: article
Abstract: This research paper aims to explore the problem of scope creep in project management and identify possible measures to address changes. Scope creep, a significant challenge that threatens overall project success, refers to the uncontrolled growth of project scope, negatively affecting project cost, time, and quality. By evaluating the causes of scope creep, prevention measures, and management approaches, this research sought to give project managers rich resources to prevent and control scope creep risks. The work complexes and integrates data from various scholarly articles, stakeholder reports, and case studies to propose a scope management system. Some tactical areas are to refine the project scope definition, establish sound change control procedures, use sophisticated project management tools and techniques, and manage stakeholders. This paper summarises the study findings and recommendations on best practices in project scope management and suggestions for future research
