Related content: Week 7

Assume that you are in the execution phase of your project:

a. You have completed 2 months of your project and have completed 60% of the project work. Your

total spending at this point comprises 80% of your total budget. Assume an equal amount of work

is scheduled throughout the 3 months of the project duration.

b. What is the cost variance (CV), schedule variance (SV), cost performance index (CPI), and schedule

performance index (SPI) for the project?

c. Use the CPI to calculate the estimate at completion (EAC) for this project.

change control’. Identify any risk that you consider would have an impact on the success of your

project or the portfolio you work in.

words in total)

c. Plot all the risks (from Task a) on a probability/ impact matrix.

Related content: Week 9

Develop a list of 3 quality standards/requirements related to meeting the stakeholder expectations and

requirements described in portfolio introduction in Assignment 1. You can use the quality requirements

developed in your scope statement (DELIVERABLE 2: Project Scope Management for Assignment 1).

a. Provide a brief description of each standard/requirement. For example, a standard/ requirement

might be: user testing indicates that 95% of users report a positive user experience when engaging

with the system; or 95% of users rated the information from the app as useful. (You can assume 95%

is an acceptable lower threshold rate for any requirement that needs one. Not all of your

requirements will need a specific threshold though and if you feel it is important to go higher then

please do so).

b. Determine how you will measure progress on meeting those standards/requirements identified in

Task a. For example: ensure user testing is scheduled at several points in the project so that the user

experience score data can be analysed to help build an understanding of what the quality issues are,

and where targeted improvements can be made.

Related content: Weeks 1-11

Mode of submission: ● Presentation slides submission - Group submission: 16:30 Wednesday 19 October 2022

● Oral Presentation - Group presentation: During your allocated applied class in week 12

FORMAT:

A 12-minute oral presentation as a team to the client and FIT operation management team (role played by

your tutors and other teams) during Week 12 applied classes.

PURPOSE:

● To inform the relevant stakeholders of the completion of the projects

● To garner support for the project proposals you are developing for your assignment

● The presentation session would also serve as a platform for the team to share their experiences

(lessons learned) throughout their work on the projects.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

The aim of this task is to provide students with an opportunity to develop their analytical and presentation

skills and in so doing:

● Evaluate, review and reflect on their project experience.

● Critically analyse successes and opportunities for improvement

● Present relevant information to different stakeholders in an engaging manner.

● Work in a collaborative team environment.

ASSIGNMENT SPECIFICATION AND DELIVERABLES

As you know, FIT senior management had decided to invest in the Student Services professional services

function of the Faculty of Information Technology (FIT). Your team is a project management consultancy

partnership that undertakes contracts from clients and works with them to plan and manage internal service

development projects that include IT design and development.

Assume that you have just completed the projects in the portfolio and successfully launched the systems.

Your team is required to give a project closure presentation, pitch to the client (FIT Educational Services) and

FIT operations management team, summarising your work (from Assignments 1 and 2) and should cover the

following aspect:

● The portfolio objectives;

● Summary of portfolio investment results;

● Portfolio assessment and

● Lessons learned*.

* The lessons learned process includes gathering, archiving and presenting data about the project plans, the

budget, schedule and information about the actual performance versus those plans as well as the project’s

variances and the corrective action that was taken to resolve problems. This information provides future

project managers an advantage in quickly and accurately planning their projects and learning from what

worked and what didn’t.

9 | Page FIT2002 (Semester 2, 2022) Assignment 2 Notes:

● You should make use of information from all the Deliverables in Assignments 1 and 2.

● As needed you should make reasonable realistic assumptions.

● You are free to make assumptions as to whether the portfolio is completed within the nine months

scheduled timeframe or not.

● Your lessons learned should cover team challenges or any problems/challenges with the projects and

how you addressed them.

Instructions:

1. Please upload your presentation slides (one submission per group) by 16.30 Wednesday 19 October 2022

on the FIT2002 Moodle site under “Assignment 2 – Presentation (Group Submission)” link.

2. Every member of the team needs to actively participate in the presentation which will happen during the

Week 12 applied class.

3. Every team will also need to assess other teams and is required to stay through the whole session.

Presentation rubric and materials to help you prepare for this task are provided in a separate document in

Moodle.
