You have been asked to be the project manager for the development of an information technology (IT) project. The system to be developed will allow a large company to coordinate and maintain records of the professional development of its employees. The company has over 30,000 employees who are located in four sites: Atlanta, GA; Houston, TX; Chandler, AZ; and Schaumburg, IL. The system needs to allow employees to locate and schedule professional development activities that are relevant to their positions. Sophisticated search capabilities are required, and the ability to add scheduled events to the employees’ calendars is desired. The system needs to support social networking to allow employees to determine who is attending conferences and events. This will promote fostering relationships and ensure coverage of conferences that are considered of high importance.
Once an activity has been completed, employees will use the system to submit the documentation. The system should support notifications to management personnel whenever their direct reports have submitted documentation. The system should also notify employees if their deadline to complete professional-development requirements is approaching and is not yet satisfied.
The goal is to get this system up and running at the start of the next fiscal year.
Conduct all of your team-related activities in the Small Group area. Contact your instructor with questions pertaining to this project.
Review the Group Project resources in the
School of Information Technology Library Guide
(LibGuide).
For the given scenario, your group needs to complete the following:
Include a title slide and APA format on citations used in the presentation with a closing reference slide. Use proper design regarding elements (fonts, color, images, and so on) on your slides.
Use the Record SlideShow option to present the information on each slide and record your verbal explanations for each item. Please refer to the following for more detailed instructions on recording your voice on a PowerPoint slide:

Project Manager
Some project managers do the same thing on every project. They have one meeting with a few subject matter experts, brainstorm the risks, and call it done. That’s a good start, but consider adding and using more tools and perform periodic risk reviewers to evalute current risks and identify new risks.
First, project managers clarify what they mean by project risk. Second, they use a variety of risk identification tools and techinques, not just one. Third, they write the risks in a consistent format. Fourth, project managers engage the right stakeholders.
They look beyond the obvious risks. Look around the corners. Lastly, project managers capture their project risks in a central repository. What are risks and non-risks? When people hear the term “risk,” they often think of negative events. Why? Well, the dictionary defines risk as “the possibility that something bad may happen.”
Customer
Customers requirments refer to the specification or features of a product or service that are deemed necessary by customers. These requirments motivate customers to buy a product or service. To determine customer requirments, companies can research their target market to understand their desires and needs.
Conduct regular worksite inspections. Walk through the worksite and visually assess the types of equipment, work practices, and any potential hazards that could be harmful to the workers.
Broadly speaking, there are two main categories of risk systematic and unsystematic . Systematic Risk. The overall impact of the market. Unsystematic Risk- Asset specific or company specific uncertainty. Political/Regulatory Risk – The impact of political decisions and changes in regulation.
Architects and Developers
Stakeholders can relate to it, and understand an abstract view of the system. They can then discuss the system as a whole without being confused by detail. The architectural model idenifies the key components that are to be developed so managers can start assigning people to plan the development of these systems.
High-level overview of the relationship between incertainly and risk. Computer architectures are exposed to at least three major sources of stacks projection uncertainty, process uncertainly, and design uncertainty.
The risk management architecture is normally centered on leadership and commitment. The effectiveness of risk management will depend on its integration into all aspects of the organization, including decision-making. The remaining components of the architecture are design, implementation, evaluation and improvement.
Member selects the high risks
The project manager has the high risk because he has to decide or not do we take chances on doing things this way or that way. If the project does not be successful the managers, employees, and other company will not depend on his ability for the startup project will not succeed because of high risks he did.
The project manager is the captain of what projects are needed to support the ideas of creating better knowledge of starting up an IT technology program that is needed to finished the business program that is needed to finished the potential effect of the project successfully.
High risk projects are projects that are highly visible, have a sweeping impact inside and outside the organization and pose significant team’s ability to deliver. There are as many project risk management frameworks as there are project management methodologies.
Potential effects on the project
Perhaps the most common project risk, cost risk is due to poor budget planning, inaccurate cost estimating, and scope creep.
The risk is higher when clients want too much even though the project has few resources only.
Cost risk can lead to other project risks such as a schedule risk and performance risk.
Risk management is the process of identifying assessing and controlling threats to organization’s capitol earning.
These are unplanned variations from project objectives, either positive or negative, which arise as a result of risks occurring. Effects are contingent events that will not occur unless risks happen, so they are unplanned, potential future variations. A risk management plan can impact the identification and analysis of potential risks that may undermine your project, the methods you can use to avert the risk, and the effects of unavoidable risks.
High Risks
These risks stem foom variety of sources including, financing uncertainties, legal abilities, technology issues, strategic managements errors, accidents and natural disasters.
High-risk projects are projects that highly visible, have a sweeping impact inside and outside the project organization and pose significant threats to the project team’s ability to deliver.
There are as many project risk management frameworks as there are project management methodologies.
The high risk is a major factor in trying to develop all resources in making employees not have problems in the workplace in not finishing their assignments in this system project of preparing impacts of things needed to make the final project complete in doing developing the approaching requirements.
Identify Risks
What are the risks to your business?
Assess the risk.
Communicate the plan and train your staff.
Minimise or eliminate risks.
Assign responsibility for test.
Develop contingency plans.
Monitor for new risks.
Break down the big picture. Be pessimistic. Consult an expert. Conduct internal research. Conduct external research. Analyze customer complaints. Use models or software that risks are doing to prevent projects from developing non- starting test, plans, and using staff of these risks in project managing.
Mitigation Strategy
Risk Identification
Need to see if your name, number, social security card and all other identification information are safe in the project system
Risk Analysis
The process of identifying and analyzing potential issues that could negatively impact key business initiatives or projects.
Response Planning
Planning for any response that are needed to planning response.
Risk Mitigation
Designed to manage eliminate or reduced risk to an acceptable level. Control the impact of known risks intrinsic.
Risk Monitoring
Controlling the risk of team members coming up with ways that can avoid the occurring project.
Strategy mitigation revolves around reducing the impact of potential risk. A jewelry store might mitigate the risk of theft, by having a security system or even a security guard at the entrance. Avoidance, retention, sharing, transferring, and loss prevention and reduction can apply to all facts of an individual’s life and can pay off in the long run. Scoop creep, Budget creep
Summarize Challenges that the teamed Face.
#Challenge 1: Building Trust
#Challenge 2: Maintaining Good Communication.
#Challenge 3: Unrealistic Deadlines .
#Challenge 4: Team Member Self-awareness.
#Challenge 5: Delegating Jobs.
Lack of clarity.
Conflict and tension. Conflict is one of the biggest challenges facing any team. Conflict, or a difference of opinion, can be healthy and, if carefully managed, it can trigger useful debate. Conflict can make people think differently, expanding knowledge and insight, and innovation can happen and results flourish.
