Keep detailed records throughout the life of a project. Use them to check deliverables, report/communicate to the project board, and serve as a roadmap for when and where to make changes.

• Business case: A document that explains why the project is necessary and what benefits end users can anticipate.
• Risk register: A stock of potential risks, their probability to occur, and anticipated impact.
• Quality register: A record of quality assurance checks performed during the project.
• Issues register: A running log of concerns and/or problems observed by project team members.
• Lessons log: An account of lessons learned from the project that could be applied to future projects.
• Daily log: A daily record kept by the project manager detailing project progress and activity.
