Verified Deliverables
Finished project outputs that have passed the Control Quality checks and are verified to meet stated requirements and be correct.
Key Points
- Created as an output of the Control Quality process.
- Serve as inputs to Validate Scope, where the customer or sponsor accepts them.
- Supported by evidence such as test results, inspection reports, and completed checklists.
- Confirmed against quality metrics and requirements, but not yet formally accepted by the customer.
Example
A project team completes a mobile app feature. QA executes all planned test cases, logs results, and confirms the feature meets performance and security requirements. With defects resolved and evidence documented, the feature is marked as a verified deliverable and then submitted to the customer for acceptance in Validate Scope.
