What’s an example of a project management baseline?

Here are four examples of project baselines:

Cost baseline — specify total project cost and prices for individual phases.
Scope baseline — detail your project’s scope to decide what to include or exclude at every step.
Schedule baseline — set a project baseline schedule that specifies a start and end date for each task or phase.

When should you baseline a project?

Baseline a project at the beginning of the project lifecycle, before any work begins. This sets a clear foundation to build upon, minimizes unforeseen roadblocks, and makes sure you have the resources you need to succeed.
