Plan Scope Management - Scope and Requirements Management Plans

Let's go back to basics by referring back to PMBOK's definitions of Scope and Requirement.

Scope - The sum of the products, services, and results to be provided as a project = The work or actions that are required to be done in order to fulfill the requirements.

Requirement - A condition or capability that is required to be present in a product, service, or result to satisfy a
contract or other formally imposed specification = The functions of the product, service or result to achieve a the desired set of outcomes.

Therefore the bottomline is:

Scope Management Plan - A component of the project or program management plan that describes how the scope will be defined, developed, monitored, controlled and verified.

Requirements Management Plan - A component of the project management plan that describes how requirements will be analyzed, documented and managed.
