Explanation

The program scope statement defines what is included in and excluded from the program, establishing the boundaries and deliverables. It serves as the baseline against which all future program decisions are evaluated - particularly decisions about whether something is in scope or out of scope. While the program management plan is broader and guides execution, the scope statement is the foundational baseline for decisions. Budget and requirements are inputs to planning, not the decision-making baseline document.
