Assignment

A successful project must be completed on time, within budget, and deliver a quality product that satisfies users and meets requirements. Project management techniques can be used throughout the System Development Life Cycle $($SDLC$).$

Project management performs four activities: planning, scheduling, monitoring, and reporting.

Project planning includes identifying all project tasks and estimating the completion time and costs.

Project scheduling involves creating a specific timetable, usually in the form of charts showing tasks, task dependencies, and critical tasks that might delay the project. It also involves selecting and staffing the project team and assigning specific tasks to team members. Project scheduling uses a Work Breakdown Structure $($WBS$),$ which can be created in Microsoft Project or Excel.

Project monitoring requires guiding, supervising, and coordinating the project team$$s workload. The project manager must monitor the progress, evaluate the results, and take corrective action to control the project and stay on target.

Project reporting includes regular progress reports to management, users, and the project team. Effective reporting requires strong communication skills and a sense of what others want and need to know about the project.

First Task is the Project Name that has your name.

The Tasks should be grouped by Phases and Major groupings from the Excel Spreadsheet.

Schedule:

Work $8$ am to $5$ pm$.40$ hours a week. $20$ days per month.

Scheduling is Auto Scheduled, not manual

Enter the Predecessors $($ all work is being done sequentially$).$

Time: Under Project, change Working Time :
