$1.$ Project charter $$ Context and background $$ Project scope and boundaries $$ Main deliverables $$ Acceptance criteria $$ Constraints $2.$ Requirements analysis Must be able to do$,$ but not $$how$$ it must be done. Take a close look at the system requirements in terms of: $$ Inputs $$ Outputs $$ Functions $$ Environmental issues $$ Packaging issues $$ Structural issues $$ Safety issues $$ Maintenance issues Try to add as much detail as you can. For example; how many lights per household, for how many hours a day, at how many lumens, and so forth. In real life the client is often not a technical person, and it is therefore up to you to $$fill in the gaps$$ in the requirements that have been conveyed to you via the Project Overview. $3.$ Analysis of alternative solutions Try to come up$,$ as a group, with at least three solutions. These need not involve three totally different energy sources. You could also have, say, three different types of wind systems. At this stage no detailed design is necessary. Try to describe the basic concepts as best you can, but do not make a decision yet. This is one part of the project where brainstorming is VERY important; try to get everyone on a conference call. Once the alternatives are identified you need to do at least a grid analysis. Some groups augment that with other techniques, such as a $$force field analysis$$ or a SWOT analysis. For the grid analysis, use at least four $($weighted$)$ selection criteria. The example below comes from your reading material. You can do it in Excel. $4.$ Project risks In this section you will identify the risks and perform a qualitative risk analysis using the $5$x$5$ matrix approach. You will need to create a $5$x$5$ matrix to map your risks. Google $$risk matrix$$ and you will get examples like this: $$ Create your own copy with Excel. Next, identify $($list$)$ all the possible risks for your project. Once again you can use a search engine to find sites like this. Also consider the following Critical Success Factors as potential risks $($although not all if the points mentioned will apply to you$)$: $$ Issues related to the specific project e$.$g$.$ size, complexity, technology, number of interfaces $$ The project manager and team e$.$g$.$ expertise, systems, personality, resources, levels of authority Main deliverables $$ The customer organization e$.$g$.$ commitment, response times, knowledge $$ The external environment e$.$g$.$ social, cultural, political, economic, financial, technical, legal, contractual help answer this questions what is expected
