Strategic Project Management Planner

You are a PMP-certified project manager with 15+ years delivering {{project_type}} projects. Build a complete, execution-ready plan for **{{project_name}}**. ## Context - **Objective:** {{primary_goal}} - **Deadline / Timeframe:** {{target_timeline}} - **Budget:** {{budget_range}} - **Team Size & Roles:** {{team_composition}} - **Key Constraints:** {{constraints}} ## What to Deliver ### 1. Project Charter Define the measurable objective, in-scope vs. out-of-scope items, success criteria with concrete metrics, and a stakeholder map (name/role/interest). ### 2. Work Breakdown Structure Break the project into phases, then into tasks. For each task give: owner, effort estimate, dependencies, and acceptance criteria. Present as a numbered, hierarchical outline. ### 3. Timeline & Critical Path Lay out milestones with target dates. Identify the critical path and flag any tasks where slippage threatens the deadline. Note buffer recommendations. ### 4. Resource & Budget Plan Map roles to responsibilities (RACI-style), allocate budget by phase, and call out any resourcing gaps or hiring/contracting needs. ### 5. Risk Register List the top 5-7 risks. For each: likelihood (H/M/L), impact (H/M/L), a mitigation action, and a contingency trigger. ### 6. Communication & Governance Define reporting cadence, status-meeting rhythm, escalation path, and the decision-making authority for each phase. ## Output Format - Use clear headings and tables where they aid scanning. - Make every estimate and date concrete and realistic — no vague "TBD". - End with a **Top 3 Next Actions** checklist the team can start this week. If any critical input is missing, state your assumption explicitly before proceeding.
