+# Overview
+* **Feature Name:** Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI)
+* **PI Phase(s) Supported:** PEI, DXE
+* **SMM Required?** No
+
+More Information:
+* [IPMI Specification 2nd Generation v2.0](https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/product-briefs/ipmi-second-gen-interface-spec-v2-rev1-1.pdf)
+
+## Purpose
+The IPMI feature provides firmware functionality that implements behavior described in the IPMI specification. IPMI
+enables out-of-band and monitoring capabilities independent of the host system's CPU, firmware, and operating system.
+
+# High-Level Theory of Operation
+*_TODO_*
+A description of how the device works at a high-level.
+
+The description should not be constrained to implementation details but provide a simple mental model of how the
+feature is supposed to work.
+
+## Firmware Volumes
+*_TODO_*
+A bulleted list of the firmware volumes that feature module(s) are placed in.
+
+## Modules
+*_TODO_*
+A bulleted list of the modules that make up the feature.
+
+## <Module Name>
+*_TODO_*
+Each module in the feature should have a section that describes the module in a level of detail that is useful
+to better understand the module source code.
+
+## <Library Name>
+*_TODO_*
+Each library in the feature should have a section that describes the library in a level of detail that is useful
+to better understand the library source code.
+
+## Key Functions
+*_TODO_*
+A bulleted list of key functions for interacting with the feature.
+
+Not all features need to be listed. Only functions exposed through external interfaces that are important for feature
+users to be aware of.
+
+## Configuration
+*_TODO_*
+Information that is useful for configuring the feature.
+
+Not all configuration options need to be listed. This section is used to provide more background on configuration
+options than possible elsewhere.
+
+## Data Flows
+*_TODO_*
+Architecturally defined data structures and flows for the feature.
+
+## Control Flows
+*_TODO_*
+Key control flows for the feature.
+
+## Build Flows
+*_TODO_*
+Any special build flows should be described in this section.
+
+This is particularly useful for features that use custom build tools or require non-standard tool configuration. If the
+standard flow in the feature package template is used, this section may be empty.
+
+## Test Point Results
+*_TODO_*
+The test(s) that can verify porting is complete for the feature.
+
+Each feature must describe at least one test point to verify the feature is successful. If the test point is not
+implemented, this should be stated.
+
+## Functional Exit Criteria
+*_TODO_*
+The testable functionality for the feature.
+
+This section should provide an ordered list of criteria that a board integrator can reference to ensure the feature is
+functional on their board.
+
+## Feature Enabling Checklist
+*_TODO_*
+An ordered list of required activities to achieve desired functionality for the feature.
+
+## Common Optimizations
+*_TODO_*
+Common size or performance tuning options for this feature.
+
+This section is recommended but not required. If not used, the contents should be left empty.
