What is this technique about?

The origins of Scope Modeling can be traced back to the evolution of project management and the increasing recognition of the importance of clearly defining project boundaries. Scope Modeling involves determining and documenting a project or initiative's boundaries, constraints, and deliverables. It provides a structured approach to clearly define the extent and limitations of what is included and excluded in the project. Scope Modeling helps Business Analysts, and stakeholders establish a shared understanding of project objectives and deliverables.
