Scope (products) of a project is the sum total of all projects products and their requirements or features.

Sometimes scope is used to mean the totality of work needed to complete a project.

In traditional project management, the tools to describe a project's scope (product) are the product breakdown structure and product descriptions. The primary tool to describe a project's scope (work) is the work breakdown structure.

Extreme project management advocates the use of user stories, feature lists and feature cards to describe a project's scope (product).

If requirements are not completely defined and described and if there is no effective change control in a project, scope or requirement creep may ensue.
