🗂️ How to Use Forms, Guides, and Examples

Every form in Tasleemat follows a strict three-part triad:

forms/en/03_Initiating/01_Project_Charter/
├── 03_01_Project_Charter_Template.md   # The pure fillable template
├── 03_01_Project_Charter_Guide.md      # Detailed instructions & alignment
├── 03_01_Project_Charter.json          # Machine-readable schema definition
└── 03_01_Project_Charter.csv           # Structured table column headers

examples/en/03_Initiating/01_Project_Charter/
└── 03_01_Project_Charter_Example.md    # Fully filled enterprise example

1. For the Author (PM / Lead):
2. Open *_Guide.md first to understand mandatory inputs, RACI, and dependencies.
3. Copy *_Template.md to your working folder or project repo.
4. Fill in each bracketed placeholder [ Specify ... ].
5. Refer to *_Example.md in examples/ for benchmark inspiration.
6. For the Approver (Sponsor / PMO Director):
7. Check the Document Control & Sign-off Table at the bottom of each deliverable.
8. Verify alignment with upstream dependencies in 07_document_dependencies.md.
