CIS 348 ASSIGNMENT 1

The scope of a project is one of the most fundamental aspect of the planning development. In broad descriptions, it entails the objectives and requirements of the product. This concept is best defined in a document called Project Scope Statement. Project managers around the world have been successfully using this technique to provide an overall picture of the project. It is important to outline its usefulness in the project management business as it is a big factor of project success. The following essay will highlight the importance of creating a preliminary scope statement and briefly describe its processes and contents.

* Adoption of appropriate methods and mechanics (i.e. strategic road map, target resource split, strategic buckets) for aligning these strategic goals with the project portfolio;

The list of deliverables from the Project Scope should be listed, as well as, whether or not they were met and any worthwhile notes about the process. The scope

1. The cartoon is of a Mongolian man's head, with eight tentacles spreading out. Each tentacle contains unwanted things that the illustrator thinks the Mongolians will take with them into Australia, should there be an influx of immigrants. The head if the man is drawn in a menacing manner, with an unfriendly scowl and two buck teeth that have a gap the size of another tooth between them. The multiple alleged vices of the Mongolians include: cheap labour, pak ah-pu (a gambling game), immorality, small-pox and typhoid, opium, bribery, fan-tan (another gambling game) and customs robbery. The fact that the man is depicted as an octopus implies that the Mongolians are thought of as slimy, unclean and therefore subordinate and perhaps the fact that the Asians would get a 'hold' on Australia.

Actually,you are required to comply with two different sections. The top chord must satisfy section 8.6.5.1 and the web components must comply with 8.6.5.2. I understand you’ve placed the sprinkler 2-ft away from the top chord that satisfies Table 8.6.5.1.2. One could argue that these are not structural members so 8.6.5.2.1.4 allows you to ignore them. Although that would meet the letter of the standard, it would not meet the intent. As required by 8.6.5.2.1.3, you need to be located away from the obstruction a minimum distance of 3 times the maximum dimension of the obstruction. That would be 9 in. away from the vertical web components and 6 in. away from the diagonal components. The 2-ft separation dictated by the top chord obviously complies

The deliverable for Part 1 is a written proposal for the project selection criteria and a high level description of a proposed portfolio management process. You may also be expected to make an informal presentation of the report in class.

Write a 4-5 page paper in which you create a plan for a low-cost automated inventory system in which

All projects are defined by the purpose, objectives and deliverables. Properly defining these, as well as the other aspects of the project management plan will

Defining the project scope sets the stage for developing a plan and its primary purpose is to define as clearly as possible the deliverables and to focus project plans (Gray & Larson, 2006). The team has

This chapter gives an overview on the project management structure that was used to ensure the project success in meeting with its set out goals and objectives and in finding an answer to the set project research question.

Use this section to identify the design documents that have been developed and summarizes the overall solution design in a succinct statement. Also, define why each of these design documents is necessary for the project.

Prior to the onset of modern project management, the success criteria of a project lay solely on the technical success, or scope of the resulting product or service. Today, adherence to budget and schedule form a triangle of success factors alongside scope, with client satisfaction also developing as a key determinant of project success (Kerzner, 2004). However, the delivery of project scope will always take precedence over all other project factors, because if a project fails to deliver on its original intention, need or functionality, the project will always be considered as a failure. This essay will analyse the adequacy of the Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge’s (PMBOK) definition of Project Scope Management in relation
