== Writing a Project Initiation Document (PID) ==
 
=== Purpose ===Purpo
The purpose of the Project Initiation Document (PID) is to capture and record basic information needed to correctly define and plan the project. The PID should expand upon the Project Mandate and state what the project is aiming and planning to achieve and the reason for the importance of meeting these aims. It also contains the list of people who are participating in the project development from the very beginning until project closure, along with their roles and responsibilities. The PID also includes the date when the PID was approved by the Project Board. The PID is not regularly updated during project stages. Any revisions or updates which are needed are to be done at the end of the each stage in order to incorporate detailed milestones for the next steps. The Project Initiation Document is the basis of decisions taken for the project and it is unhelpful when the PID is queried or altered at a later stage with no reference to why, by whom or when.<ref>Purpose of PID and Related documents, .http://www.my-project-management-expert.com/writing-a-project-initiation-document-intro.html</ref>
