Project artifacts complement project methodologies and frameworks used to manage projects. Artifacts are important for documenting and archiving project information. According to the Project Management Institute, there are nine types of project artifacts. Research these nine types of artifacts, then create a 10- to 12-slide PowerPoint presentation that explains the artifact types and provides examples of when and how project leaders might use them.

Create a slide for each of the nine artifacts and include the following information:

• Identify the artifact type.
• Summarize the artifact’s purpose.
• Provide a practical example of the artifact in use.
• Explain how this artifact type helps project leaders manage a project.
