1-2.3 Project Kickoff Meetings

The project kickoff meeting serves as a vehicle to discuss the project scope and objectives. It is used to educate the purchase/SCM team about the client and to reveal the client’s strategy and goals. The project kickoff meeting transfers information on how the project will be conducted from a process and procedural standpoint. Generally, the client and the contracting officer collaborate on scheduling the kickoff meeting. The objectives of the project kickoff meeting are to:

  • Provide an overview of the client’s environment, problems, and goals.
  • Achieve consensus on the project scope.
  • Describe the roles and responsibilities of purchase/SCM team members.
  • Review the high-level project timeline.
  • Review project deliverables.
  • Review key work products for the different phases.
  • Review tracking processes and deadlines.
