What is a “product” in a project?

Basic rule of thumb: a product is something tangible (hold, touch & feel). Software and electronic documents are considered “products” because they can be converted into a tangible form: printing the code set of a software code base, or printing a document.

Personnel, vendors, suppliers and money are NOT products.
