Concept: Guideline















This Guidance type provides additional detail on how to handle a particular Content Element. Guidelines most commonly apply to Tasks and Work Products.






Main Description



A Guideline usually focuses on how to perform a particular Task or grouping of Tasks (for example, grouped together as activities) or provides additional detail, rules, and recommendations on Work Products and their properties. Guidelines can include details about a variety of topics including: Practices and different approaches for doing work, How to handle particular kinds of Content Elements, Information on different subtypes and variants of Content Elements and how they evolve throughout a lifecycle, Discussions on skills the performing Roles should acquire, Measurements of progress and maturity, etc. Work products typically have associated guidelines which present information on how to develop, evaluate and use the Work Products . Guidelines contain much of the substance of a method and provide assistance in a number of contexts: they help you decide what to do, they help doing it, they help assess the quality of the work, and they help understand how a particular Work Product relates to the rest of the process.
