project brief
Work scope document
A project brief is a document outlining the essential information needed to begin a project—its goals, scope, timeline, budget, and key stakeholders.
It serves as a reference point that keeps everyone aligned: The project brief specified a six-week timeline and $50,000 budget.
Unlike a full proposal, a brief is concise, typically one to two pages, providing just enough detail to guide decisions without exhaustive planning.
