Project Plan
Introduction
We are employed as software engineers by XYZZY company to design and
implement a proof of the concept information kiosk for DVD store. So 12 weeks
were given for the demonstration. If the demonstration is successful, it will be
further taken to prototype development. The basic functionalities for both
customers and manager for both customers and managers are provided in
demonstration. So for this we formed the group of three as the company has
budgeted for three people and started our project.

Objective
The Application will need to be finished before 27 September 2013.

The scope must be working according the use.

Constraint of the project:

1. Resource Constraint:
Number of Engineer

: 3 person

Software available

:
NetBeans IDE will be used for this project as
a java technology is to be used to design the
system. Because it is easy to develop Java
desktop , mobile and web applications with
NetBeans IDE.
GlassFish is an open source development
project was build for Java EE5 application
server

We will be using java technology as required

by the client. Java technology is becoming
more and more popular because of ease of
use.
Particularly for this project Java database is to
be used to store information. It is a relational
database management system that can be
embedded in Java Programs.
The front end will be provided in website so
the web browser will be required to get access
to the front end .

2. Time Constraint:
12 hours per person for 12 weeks. Total work hours: 432 hours
3. Scope Constraint:
Design and Implement a proof of concept information kiosk for DVD
stores.
Web driven Application with 3 tier layer.
Basic functionality for the Customers and the Managers.

Project Organisations
The project will have a different project management to ensure the output quality
of the project.
The Project organisation has been categorise by the delivery time of the project.

He will be the in charge of the project planning and dividing the work
load among the group. WBS, project organisation will be done by project
manager.
Application Analyst:
As for the current period both analyst are to work on a risk plan,
hardware and software requirement,

Second Period:

Week 5-8

Project Manager:
The project manager will be the in charge of weekly progress reports.
Web Designer:
He will be in charge of Document design for designing
Software Analyst:
He will be in charge of requirement specification

Third Period:

Week 9-12

Project Manager:
For this period project manager will be reporting the progress report and
in the final week he will be responsible for the project review
Software Engineer:
Work on the implementation of design to implementation
Developer:

WBS & Schedule

For Work Breakdown Structure and the scheduling please refer to the Microsoft
Project document under name appdevproject-final.mpp

Risk Plan
Risk is required to be considered in all kinds of scenario because danger is
inevitable all the time. Some of the risks are very unlikely to happen but still need
to be accounted for to make sure the countermeasure is ready on the side so
problem can be solved if it arises.

P = Probability that risk will occur

(0-1).
I = Degree of impact to the project
(1-10).

J = P*I = Jeopardy to the success

of the project. Positive action is
required if J > 6.

Monitoring and reporting

To monitor the project progress and to ensure the project is progressing
accordingly, there are several things that is need to be recorded:
The team need to meet regularly
Gather data on actual performance or actual result
Record changes by writing the progress report
Compare actual project with the baseline project
Take any needed corrective action immediately- will involve decisions and
will often involve trade-off of times, scope and cost
This Project will based on Shared Responsibility Structure. In this structure,
every and each member have common responsibility which is to ensure the
Project progress accordingly.
In this team, the Project Manager are the person is the decision maker if there is
a conflict between each team member interest. Every progress that has been
made will be reported to each and every other team member. At the end of each
milestone, the Project Manager will have a responsibility to submit the required
document. On the other hand, if the Project Manager are not be able to perform
his/her task, other team member is allowed to do it for him/her.
