What document gives an overview of the project, including deadlines and general requirements?

1. Scope of Work

2. Invitation to Bid

3. Request for Proposal

4. Project Charter

The correct answer is: Invitation to Bid

The Project Charter is the document that provides an overview of the project, including deadlines and general requirements. While other documents like the Scope of Work, Invitation to Bid, and Request for Proposal serve specific roles in the bidding and project execution process, the Project Charter is essential for outlining the fundamental aspects of the project at its inception. A Project Charter typically includes the project's objectives, scope, stakeholders, timelines, and high-level requirements, serving as a foundational document that guides the project. It sets the context for all subsequent project plans and actions, ensuring that all involved parties understand the project's goals and constraints from the very beginning. This clarity is crucial for aligning expectations and facilitating effective communication throughout the project lifecycle.
