This chapter helps in setting a framework that can clarify how various elements are categorized according to their common characteristics. By doing so, it provides the proposal's readers with a clear understanding of the project's components and their interrelationships.

Use the Classifications template to describe the classifications (classes or groups with common characteristics) you will use for items, personnel, or tasks in the context of your proposal. These may be scientifically defined classifications. For example, biology uses a standard taxonomy to describe classifications of organisms into kingdoms, phyla, class, order, family, genus and species.
