Scope management is a project management discipline focused on defining, documenting, and controlling what is included and excluded from a project's deliverables. Project managers use it to prevent "scope creep"—uncontrolled changes or continuous growth in a project's scope—by setting clear requirements and change-control processes. It is a core knowledge area in frameworks like the PMBOK Guide from the Project Management Institute.
