A project proposal is a document that outlines the core values of your project and sells it to stakeholders. Put simply, it shows what the project is about, why it makes sense, what you want to achieve with it and how you will get there. Writing a project proposal is generally the first step in the project management process.
A project proposal can contain a list of activities or tasks that will be associated with the project. However, it does not go into as much detail as a project plan. Instead, the project proposal contains more marketing elements for the project.
Even if you have not established a suggestion scheme for projects in your company, there are many reasons why you should think about it:
- to win a new customer,
- to secure funding,
- to convince management
- to allocate resources to an initiative
- to have a working document for a detailed project proposal,
- and much more.
