Outcome
Exemplary
The overall project deliverable is captured in 2-4 sentences. It is clear how this project is different from other related work.
Accomplished
The project deliverable is described but some details of implementation are also included or the description is too long.
Developing
The description is too general to distinguish this project from related work.
Unacceptable
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
Subsystem (software, electrical, mechanical) requirements are clearly specified. Requirements include measurable quantities.
Accomplished
Subsystem requirements are described but many measurable criterion are missing. "The axle will not break when used on bumpy roads"
Developing
The Outcome statement is broken down into smaller parts but is missing measurable criterion. Considerations such as environmental, appearance overall size are missing
Unacceptable
Just a bullet list of the user requests with no attempt to organize by subsection or specify measurable criterion.
Definition of success
Exemplary
Each measurable characteristic from the Requirements section has a pass/fail test defined.
Accomplished
Verification of each measurable characteristic from the Requirements section is included but the Pass/Fail criterion is vague for many items.
Developing
Simply calls for the verification of the requirement. "Verify that the system works after being dropped from 3 feet". Does not specify number of drops or how you know its "working"
Unacceptable
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
Gantt includes milestones for major subsections including Design Complete, Subsystem Verified as well as System Integration Complete, System Test Complete
Accomplished
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
Gantt chart milestones assume all of the project will move through development at the same pace. Design Complete, Build Complete, Test Complete.
Unacceptable
Tasks for subsystems defined but no milestones identified
