Project charter diagrams What diagrams should be included in a project charter? In our standard template there is a section for "Implementation approach and methodology", this is where the flow diagrams normally are. The project is mainly front end styling related so it doesn't have many flow changes. Should a charter include use case diagrams? Are they more relevant in a Requirements document?

Kieran, while reading your question all my hairs stand up!!! Use Cases on a project charter, I am sure that is not unheard, but totally orthodox :).

Why would you want to include these detail at this level?

On your other comment, I see fine that you have implementation approach. Once you have a few PMs in your firm, then you may think to standardize the approach, eliminating the need to establish the approach in every project.

To answer your questions I will put the following diagrams or formulas in a project charter:

* ROI -- Investment y-axis - Time x-axis - Return y-axis another color
* Project Cash flow estimate
* Project total investment over time
