Outcome

Exemplary/Excellent

Accomplished/Good

The project deliverable is described but some details of implementation are also included or the description is too long.
Developing/Fair

The description is too general to distinguish this project from related work.
Deficient/Poor

Just a title or a few words which do not differentiate this project from related work. or Describes the intent rather than deliverable. "provide clean water rather than modify pump to ...".
Requirements

Exemplary/Excellent

Subsystem (software, electrical, mechanical) requirements are clearly specified. Requirements include measurable quantities.
Accomplished/Good

Subsystem requirements are described but many measurable criterion are missing. "The axle will not break when used on bumpy roads"

Just a bullet list of the user requests with no attempt to organize by subsection or specify measurable criterion.
Definition of success

Exemplary/Excellent

Each measurable characteristic from the Requirements section has a pass/fail test defined.
Accomplished/Good

Verification of each measurable characteristic from the Requirements section is included but the Pass/Fail criterion is vague for many items.

Deficient/Poor

Verification section simply says that the overall project deliverable described in the Outcome section will be tested to see if it works.
Gantt Milestones

Exemplary/Excellent

Gantt includes milestones for major subsections including Design Complete, Subsystem Verified as well as System Integration Complete, System Test Complete
Accomplished/Good

Gantt milestones exist for the subsystems as well as the overall system but it is not clear that some of the project subsystems are independent and some rely on others and require integration
Developing/Fair

Gantt chart milestones assume all of the project will move through development at the same pace. Design Complete, Build Complete, Test Complete.
Deficient/Poor

Tasks for subsystems defined but no milestones identified
