Scope of Work (SoW)

The SoW for a project can range from limited to full. The telecommunications PM should understand the overall SoW for the project and the requirements and constraints associated with it.

An installation with limited scope (e.g., only cabling and termination/connectivity hardware) utilizes pathways that are existing or will be installed by others in a separate project.

A full "greenfield" ICT installation includes all cabling, pathways, termination/connectivity hardware, active equipment (e.g., switches, routers, converters, amplifiers, power supplies), and end devices (e.g., displays, CCTV cameras), and the associated commissioning activities needed to turn a functional installation over to the client.
