We are in the process of trying to define the various parts of Project Office. We have identified the following disciplines or activities under the Project Office banner: 1. Project Office 2. Project Portfolio Management 3. Project Definition 4. Project Scoping 5. Project Planning 6. Project Management 7. Project Tracking 8. Project Review & Analysis
At a recent meeting, my informal definitions of these terms was taken to task (appropriately so, in hindsight). I looked in the PMBOK(c) and I can find a definition for "Project Management," but none of the other terms.
Can anyone point me to a glossary (online or off) that contains at least some of these terms? Are any of you using these terms in your own organization today? How are they defined?
I am including my definitions in Word97 format attached to this.
TIA
Steven Kopischke
PS. Can anyone tell me why I can't seem to include intentional line breaks in my messages? Saving Changes...

Max Wideman has an HTML glossary that is built up from multiple sources. This is fairly extensive and covers at least some of the terms you mentioned. Have a look at the latest version (available at http://www.pmforum.org/library/glossary). Saving Changes...
