Performing Effective Project Monitoring and Risk Management<\/p>\n
Imagine that you are employed as an IT project manager by a prestigious coffeemaker organization.
\nThis organization operates many coffee shops within the region and would like to promote its brand
\nby creating a mobile application that will provide its customers with the ability to view the
\nnearest coffee shop location within their geographical area.<\/p>\n
As a member of the software development team, you estimate a total project cost of $150,000. You
\nhave designated control points to measure project progress. At control point 2, the following data
\nis available:<\/p>\n
Budget Cost of Work Performed $ 24,000
\nActual Cost of Work Performed $ 27,500<\/p>\n
There are various stakeholders that are interested in the progress of the project. These
\nstakeholders include the marketing management team (internal customers), software designers,
\nprogrammers, testers, and upper management. The software development team has attempted to release
\na mobile application of this magnitude in the past; however, lack of sponsorship, mobile
\ndevelopment expertise, and technical infrastructure has limited the team\u2019s success.<\/p>\n
Write a four to six (4-6) page paper in which you:<\/p>\n
Identify at least four (4) attributes of the mobile application development project that can be
\nmeasured and controlled and evaluate how each is a critical factor for the success of the project.
\nGenerate a project plan summary of the various project milestones. Develop a WBS that details work
\npackages required to complete project scope.
\nDevelop a workflow model that can be used to inspect and detect defects during the acceptance of
\nthis mobile product through the use of graphical tools in Microsoft Word or Visio, or an open
\nsource alternative such as Dia. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the
\nrequired page length.
\nDescribe how the defects detected during the acceptance of the mobile application should be
\nreported and explain the circumstances in which a defect may not require reporting.
\nAnalyze the communication needs of the different project stakeholders. Explain the types of project
\nstatus reports that would be useful to each.
\nCompute the cost variance, schedule variance, cost performance index, schedule performance index,
\nand estimated actual cost using the information presented at control point 2. Interpret the project
\nschedule and budget status from the calculations.
\nExplain how work package, binary tracking, and earned valued reporting can be used effectively
\nduring the maintenance phase of the software life cycle if various change requests may be assigned
\nto individuals and processed on an individual basis.
\nDevelop a risk register that will document all of the estimated risks. Assign one (1) risk
\nmanagement technique for each risk and explain the basis for your selection.
\nUse at least three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites
\ndo not qualify as quality resources.<\/p>\n
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:<\/p>\n
Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides;
\ncitations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for
\nany additional instructions.
\nInclude a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student\u2019s name, the professor\u2019s
\nname, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the
\nrequired assignment page length.
\nInclude charts or diagrams created in Visio or Dia. The completed diagrams \/ charts must be
\nimported into the Word document before the paper is submitted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
