Carve for PDRI: The evolution of PDRI

Over the past 20-years, many many companies have experienced massive benefits of using PDRI to improve scope definition. As project management processes have matured at companies using PDRI, the supporting tools for PDRI evolved from a paper-based checklist to more sophisticated PDRI spreadsheets. The spreadsheets made it simpler to facilitate, and tally scores for up to 70 elements.
