What is Project Context?

Context is the environment in which the project is taking place. The core aspects of context are the scope, setting, phase, decision-making processes, and stakeholders. 

An alternative breakdown of context includes:

  • Physical Environment - Where the project is physically located and those characteristics. (This includes facilities and transportation). 
  • Social Environment - The stakeholders and the general community (all relevant demographics) in which the project will be carried out. 
  • Economic Environment - What is the effect of the presents, supply, demand, and exchange or resources within the project area.
  • Cultural characteristics - What are the relevant characteristics of culture within the project area?
