Based on this scenario

You have been hired as a project manager for a software company, ABC Solutions. Their business development team has received a product request from a new client, XYZ Financial Services. They need a custom software solution to streamline some workflows and processes that will be implemented in their offices worldwide. Your company has developed a similar software solution, but the client requires additional features and customization. The new software needs to be ready for a test run at two of the offices in about six months and worldwide rollout in another three months. Your boss, the project director, has asked you to manage this product development project.

ABC Solutions uses the traditional waterfall method for software development. The proposed project schedule should include the following major tasks:

  • Determine the software requirements and design.
  • Conduct a code test and system test.
