Based on the feedback you received from the Stakeholder Review Survey, use COCOMO II and OpenProj to revise the project plan you submitted in Week 2.

 

Customer Feedback: The customer agrees with the product you are proposing and the clients agree that your cost and schedule estimates seem to be reasonable. Unfortunately, they cannot afford it. Work with your team this week to reduce the project cost by 50% and the schedule by 50%. You must still satisfy the customer's needs.

 

Please thoroughly explain the revisions to the project plan to address client and customer feedback received from the survey.

 

Please thoroughly explain a detailed rationale for the changes and explain their effects.

Introduction: This document provides an in-depth analysis of the projected costs and schedule for developing an employee-tracking application. It delves deeper into the rationale behind the estimations, utilizing both COCOMO II for a top-down approach and OpenProj for a bottom-up, activity- based model. Additionally, it explores potential risks and mitigation strategies to ensure project success. Project Scope and Deliverables: The employee-tracking application, envisioned as a web-based system, will empower employers to monitor employee time and attendance, track project progress, and assess individual performance metrics. Moreover, employees will gain self-service capabilities, including viewing timesheets, requesting leave, and accessing paystubs. This project aims to deliver the following key functionalities: . Time and Attendance Tracking: Employees can clock in/out, record breaks, and view past time entries. • Project Management: Create and manage projects, assign tasks, track progress, and collaborate with team members. • Performance Management: Set goals, track progress, measure individual and team performance, and provide feedback. • Self-Service Portal: Employees can access timesheets, request leave, update personal information, and download paystubs. COCOMO II Top-Down Estimation: The COCOMO II web-based tool estimated the following: . Estimated Size (KLOC): 20 Mode: Organic • Development Effort (person-months): 42 • Development Schedule (months): 10.5 Rationale for COCOMO II: • Organic Mode: The project is considered novel and lacks prior development. . Estimated Size: The application's size is estimated at roughly 20,000 lines of code. OpenProj Bottom-Up Estimation: An exhaustive bottom-up, activity-based project plan was constructed using OpenProj, identifying high-level tasks and their estimated durations: Introduction: This document provides an in-depth analysis of the projected costs and schedule for developing an employee-tracking application.
