Software Development Project Plan
Scope: The new software will assist students, faculty, and management at Yorkville University. The goal is to enhance the institution's processes' productivity and effectiveness, ensuring that students, faculty, and administration can communicate promptly and minimize physical meetings as much as possible.
Technical Process: The software development process will involve several processes: waterfall modification, prototyping, incremental modeling, and actual coding. All these technical stages are essential in developing a comprehensive software the addresses the needs within the University.
Tools and Techniques: The main tools and techniques required for the project include version control, project information website, a scheduling tool, team communication platform, task management software, and documentation of the different project aspects.
Internal Artifacts: The team is also responsible for developing different artifacts within the software, such as software requirements specifications, prototypes, and software architecture documents. This will ease the process of explaining the software details.
Risk Management: Risk management is an important component in the development of the software. There is a need to understand the different risks associated with the project and ensuring that mitigation measures are implemented. This will ensure the effectiveness and timely completion of the different project requirements.
Scheduling and Estimates: Another essential aspect of the project completion process is scheduling and estimates. It is important to develop a schedule for the different activities and budget estimates for timely delivery and proper planning.
Work Breakdown Structure: The WBS aims to show the different work that the project encompasses.
