– P2

Слайд 4

Information
People

Finance

Слайд 5

Information
Very few ICT projects could exist without information. Some of the

information that a project needs may already exist in other systems.
In this case, a project will need to build feeds from these systems.
Often a project will need to capture new information or add to or update existing information. A project will need to include functions to do this.
Finally, a project may need to supply information to other existing systems.

Слайд 6

Information – Activity (1)
Explain what is involved in the following information

gathering techniques:
Interviews, Questionnaires, Data Analysis, Meetings, Document Analysis and Observations
Use the document provided on the VLE (P2) – “Project Management Resources – Information”

People
In a project, there are a number of different ICT

skills that contribute towards success. In a small project, one person may possess all these skills. In a larger business project, each of these skills is likely to come from a different specialist. These may include:
Systems analyst – they talk to the customer and users about their needs and then produce the specification of what the system should do
Product developers – either a general term for people who work in ICT or more specifically people who turn the specification into a detailed design for the programmer on how to build the project
Programmers – the people who write the code.

Слайд 8

People – Activity (2)
Explain what function each of the following job

roles perform and why they are important to a project
Project Manager, Analyst, Designer, Programmer/Developer, Tester and Documenter
Use the document provided on the VLE (P2) – “Project Management Resources –People”

How does this affect your project?
In your project plan you

need to identify the resources you need to complete each task
Some of these resources may be people, such as your client or Me (Your Project Supervisor)
Putting resources against your tasks within Microsoft Project will help you achieve P5

Слайд 10

Equipment and facilities
Most ICT projects need equipment, such as hardware and

software.
The developer needs it to build the project.
The users need it to run the project.
Sometimes the equipment is already in place.
Otherwise you must decide on the equipment needs of a project. You must order it and install it early enough in the plan so as not to delay the project. If the equipment is specialised, your plan must allow for designing and building it.

Слайд 11

How does this affect your project?
In your project plan you

need to identify the resources you need to complete each task
Some of these resources may be equipment, such as Word, Paint, Python, Visual Basic, Visio, Photoshop
Putting this equipment resources against those tasks that require this equipment within Microsoft Project will help you achieve P5

Слайд 12

Finance
In a student project, you may not need to worry

about money as a resource.
However, in a business project, all the resources have costs. Management expect the project manager to keep the overall costs within the budget. You have to pay to buy or capture information that your project needs. The people on your project will need to be paid. You may have to buy new hardware and software.
