Explanation

The project charter formally authorizes the existence of a project and grants the project manager the authority to apply organizational resources to project activities. For each constituent project within a program, a project charter must be issued to formally establish the project and empower its project manager to use the necessary resources. A project scope statement (B) defines deliverables and boundaries but does not grant resource authority. A project resource requirements document (C) identifies what resources are needed but does not authorize their use. A roles and responsibilities chart (D) clarifies who does what, but again does not serve as an authorization instrument. Only the project charter formally authorizes a project manager to utilize resources.
