In broader sense a project charter is the statement of scope,objectives and people who are participating in a project work.It begind the project difining stage,the roles and responisbilities of those participants and define the goals and objectives.There are some frameworks of the project charter like above said .i.e.(i)General Project Information,(ii)Problem,Issues,Goals,Objectives,Delivrables,(iv)Project Scope & Schedule,(v)Project Resoources & Cost,(vi)Project Benefits & Customers,(vii)Project Risks,Constraints and Assumptions.So will start example of a new project details as per following frameworks and parameters.
General Project Information:-
Project Name- Project name must be assigned,lets takeexample called MISSION CORONA (A Project on Eradication of Covid-19).
Project Sponsor-WHO,in project management a project sponsor a person/entity or a group who provides resources and support for the project work or programme for enabling success.

Organizational Unit-In a project OU is essential,it amy be groups,teams,or department that maximize efficiency of the project work.Like WHO many expertise groups,teams and departments are involved to fight the corona as a whole.
Process Impacted-Great impact of process in a project where a unique action and represents the whole project implementation and the internal processes.The process like work instructions, procedure methods, network plans and tools are also considered.
Expected Start Date/ Expected Completion Date -The comencement date must be after all planning and design of the project.Every project has starting date and closing date must be decide then after the project will come into lime light.
Expected Savings-If the both date decided,automatically can judge the saving of time and cost for the profitability and better result of the project.
Estimated Costs-Estaimation of cost of the project that the practice of forecasting the cost completing the project with a define scope.Its the primary and essential element of project cost management,a knowledge area that involves planning, monitoring, and controlling a project's monetary costs.In covid-19 project biilions of dollar invested and investing how to eradicate and save the human from this killer virus.
Problem, Issue, Goals, Objectives, Deliverables:
Problem or Issue-While running the project many problems arrising like staff or suppliers, technical failures, material shortages – these might all have a negative impact on your project.In above project shortage of material like masks,sanitizers,medicines or vaccines.Also supporting staff like doctors,nurses etc like this. If the issue goes unresolved, you risk creating unnecessary conflicts, delays, or even failure to produce your deliverable.Now the situation like this lack of all.
Purpose of Project-The project must be purposeful,in covid-19 project is our sole purpse is remove covid-19 virus and save the worls at any cost.
Business Case- business case provides justification for undertaking a project, programme or portfolio. It evaluates the benefit, cost and risk of alternative options and provides a rationale for the preferred solution.In covid-19 case searching for alternative how to develop vaccine and medicines.
Goals/Metrics- metrics are generally a measurement of something. When managing a project, you can choose to use project metrics to track progress. Metrics are selected based on the goals of the project and critical factors for success.It include the estimated cost of the project,demographic situation and stage.
Expected Deliverables-The term deliverables traditionally used to describe the quantifiable goods or services that must be provided upon the completion of a project. Deliverables can be tangible or intangible in nature.So the aim of WHO in pandemic project completion of corona and no loss of human life.
Project Scope & Schedule: the scope refers to the detailed set of deliverables or features of a project. These deliverables are derived from a project's requirements. The Project Scope as the “The work that needs to be accomplished to deliver a product, service, or result with the specified features and functions.
Within Scope-It refers the planning that involves determining and documenting a list of specific project goals, deliverables, features, functions, tasks, deadlines, and ultimately costs and it is what needs to be achieved and the work that must be done to deliver a project.
Outside of Scope- is work that is beyond the current scope of a program, project or initiative. Out of scope is the "I don't know" part that can incur massive cost and time over runs. As a client, you ask for everything and make massive assumptions and expectations.
PROJECT RESOURCES & COSTS: Resources are required to carry out the project tasks. They can be people, equipment, facilities, funding, or anything else capable of definition (usually other than labour) required for the completion of a project activity. Financial cost associated with a task. Travel expenses, food expenses, etc.The cost may be Fixed Cost, Variable Cost , Semi Variable Cost, Total Cost.
Project Team- project team is a team whose members usually belong to different groups, have different functions and are assigned by the project manager to activities for the same project.In above project it may be pannel of doctors,expertise,etc..
Support Resources- They can be people, equipment, facilities, funding, or anything else capable of definition (usually other than labour) required for the completion of a project activity.Storable resources remain available unless depleted by usage, and may be replenished by project tasks which produce them.
Special Needs-it describes the support from all the need to perform the project.
PROJECT BENEFITS & CUSTOMERS:every project has benefits to the customer and end user,in this case the the benefit for human if the covid virus complete remove.
Process Owner- Process Owner is a person or organisation, who is accountable for the performance of the process and manages the process on a daily basis. Sometimes, he is the leader who commands his team on the deliverables and action items. Here the process owner is WHO.
Key Stakeholders- Stakeholders are those with any interest in your project's outcome. They are typically the members of a project team, project managers, executives, project sponsors, customers, and users. In above project the key stakeholder is WHO and other stakeholders are all covid countries.
Final Customers-the final customer is ultimately human.
Expected Benefits-The xpectation from the project is getting benefit where the project successfully implemented.If covid virus completely remived the benefit for human being.
PROJECT RISKS, CONSTRAINTS, ASSUMPTIONS: Constraints and Assumptions are identified and documented at high-level during project initiation.They are inputs to many project management processes. Assumption analysis is a part of the risk management process. The project management plan needs to change if constraints change or assumptions are proven wrong.The access to all the resources you need to complete the project, both human and material.All equipment will be in working condition through the project cycle.The Common Constraints in Project Management The standard “Iron Triangle” of project limitations states three constraints: time, scope and budget.In above project many risks and constraints and assumptions involved to remove the virus.
