FRIDAY FUNDAMENTALS: Scope Creep: The Silent Assassin of Projects (And How to Stop It)

Welcome to Friday Fundamentals! This Video is meant to be an additional resource to an article we came out with. You can read it here: https://epm.umd.edu/the-hidden-costs-... We explain how scope creep—uncontrolled expansion of project scope without adjusting time, budget, or resources—often begins as small, reasonable requests that accumulate into major problems. We outline compounded impacts on cost, schedule, quality , people , and reputation. We recommend preventing scope creep by establishing a documented, signed-off scope baseline with explicit boundaries, using formal change control with impact analysis for every request, communicating proactively to educate stakeholders and manage expectations, and prioritizing strategically by separating must-haves from nice-to-haves with backlogs and phased delivery tied to explicit trade-offs. 00:00 Project Starts Strong 00:17 The First Extra Requests 00:29 What Scope Creep Is 00:53 Cost and Timeline Damage 01:30 Quality and Team Burnout 01:54 Reputation at Risk 02:05 Build a Scope Baseline 02:24 Change Control and Communication 02:48 Prioritize and Say No 03:31 Wrap Up and Next Steps 🔗 LinkedIn Page   / umdpm   🔗 Learn more from the Project Management Center for Excellence: https://pm.umd.edu 🔗 Register for the next Project Management Symposium and earn PDUs: https://pmsymposium.umd.edu
