Project Plan

[This is a sample Alliance project plan template. After approving a proposal for an Alliance project, product, or activity beyond dissemination and outreach, OSHA may request that Alliance participant(s) develop a project plan to facilitate its completion. The project plan elaborates tasks and milestones and establishes target completion dates and responsible parties. For additional information, please see the Guidelines for OSHA's Alliance Program Participants: Alliance Products and Other Alliance Projects.]
