Unique Products, Services, or Results

    A project creates unique deliverables, which are products, services, or results.

    Projects can create:

    A product or artifact that is produced, is quantifiable, and can be either an end item in itself or a component item.

    A capability to perform a service, such as business functions supporting production or distribution.

    A result, such as outcomes or documents. For example, a research project develops knowledge that can be used to determine whether or not a trend is present or a new process will benefit society.

    Uniqueness is an important characteristic of project deliverables. For example, many thousands of office buildings have been developed, but each individual facility is unique—different owner, different design, different location, different contractors, and so on. The presence of repetitive elements does not change the fundamental uniqueness of the project work.

譯文：

 獨特的產品、服務或成果

    項目創造獨特的可交付成果，如產品、服務或成果。

    項目可以創造：

    生產出來可以量化的產品或制品，既可以本身就是最終物件，也可以是其他物件的組成部分。

    提供服務的能力，如輔助生產或流通的商業職能。

    成果，如結果或文件。例如，研究項目提出可用以確定是否出現了一種趨勢或某過程，是否能惠及社會的知識。

    獨特是項目可交付成果的一種重要特征。例如，辦公樓已經建造了成千上萬橦，但其中每一橦都是獨特的，即不同的業主、不同的設計、不同的地點、不同的承建人，等等。重復部件的存在并不改變整個項目工作的獨特本質。
