Most times, a project charter will include a list of project assumptions. Too often, though, assumptions are documented at the project’s outset without any means of managing to the assumption. I’ve seen many project managers use an assumption list as a “cover yourself” tactic; if something goes wrong, the PM can pull out the assumption list with an “I told you so!”
