For a given aerospace project, the present document is intended to be used as a reference to current best practices. These can be used as a guideline for the creation and negotiation of the project management specification between a customer and a supplier, and hence lead to the creation of the project management plan.

It may be used for any project utilising several actors at different levels. In particular in the case of large projects it presents provisions recommended for the management of a project according to

— project organisation,

— work breakdown structure,

— phasing and scheduling,

— risk management,

— configuration management,

— documentation management,

— interfaces with other disciplines,

— project monitoring and control,

- technical performance control,

- cost control,

- schedule control,

— resource management,

— quality assurance,

— project closure.

The terminology is limited to specifying the context in which potentially ambiguous terms are employed. As far as possible, this terminology includes definitions already appearing in various normative documents, preferably international standards.
