PROJECT PERFORMANCE 9
Assignment 3: Project Performance
Craig A. Alford
BUS 419 – Project Estimating and Budgeting
Strayer University
Dr. Shah Jamali
Spring quarter of 2015
Introduction
This project is about the development of an improved
version of Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise Client. The new
product is meant to offer better-improved service to clients and
to ensure that their computing experience is smooth and secure.
The project has been initiated to come up with a better
functioning operating system. From the project title, one can
identify that the software under development is the second
version with different patches being applied to the initial
software to improve it. There is need for extensive research to
13. be done on the new product under development so that the
issues experienced in the first version are not experienced in the
current version under development and that users can get a
better experience from the new version as compared to the
previous.
Key Objectives
This project is geared towards the development of a better
version of the Microsoft Windows with secure implementations
among other patches being developed. The need for this is to
come up with a more usable operating system with more
features incorporated within it. The product undergoing
development is required to support integration with other
operating systems to allow for a wider access with other
systems and software for increased functionality. Users of the
system will also receive patches and updates on previous
software for increased functionality and better security as
compared to peer operating systems. The aim of this is to strive
to come up with a better functioning operating system with
integration enabled for a smoother experience and increased
usability and productivity.
Projected Costs
Within the project, there are some projected costs during
different stages of the project development phase. For
successful implementation of the project, there are a number of
costs to be experienced through its lifecycle. Costs are such as
staffing costs, research, purchase of software and equipment to
carry out testing and development among other costs, which are
bound to arise within the project.

Resources
During the project phases, there are a number of resources,
which need to be set aside for the success and completion of the
project. The different departments and teams
1. Human Resources
The human resources required for the implementation of this
project vary since there is need for multiple teams to be brought
together to ensure that the requirements are met. The first team
is the team doing the initial research on the project. Secondly,
there is need for the project planning team. There is also need
for the human resources team to be involved in the process. In
addition, after the human resources team has selected members
of the project, there is need for creation of sub-teams within the
project for delivery of objectives and accomplishment of tasks.
2. Computers
In accomplishment of this project, computers loaded with the
appropriate software are necessary for purchase and
implementation. The programmers need computers, which
provide them with an environment where they can be able to
perform adequate testing on the new platform being, developed
15. to ensure that it meets customer needs and requirements.
3. Finances
In order for the project to reach completion, there are a number
of financial implications, which have to be incurred. There is
need to set and draft a budget for the project implementation.
The budget should be inclusive of costs such as staffing costs,
costs of purchasing
4. Time
There is need for a time schedule to be outlined for the project.
The project timeline needs to be developed by the project
manager and then communicated to the team members, project
sponsors and stakeholders so that they can know the expected
period of wait from start to completion. In addition, this helps
in planning for different aspects of a project to allow for
successful implementation and development.
Responsibility Assignment Matrix
The responsibility assessment matrix is a form of a linear
responsibility chart developed for purposes of description of
participation by various roles as per the tasks they are carrying
out or the expected deliverables of the project from them. This
is a useful tool to implement for information clarity in a multi-
functional department project. The most commonly used
responsibilities in this matrix are Responsible (R), Accountable
(A), Consulted (C) and Informed (I). The responsible party is
one whose work is to achieve the task; the accountable party is
the one answerable, the consulted is one whose opinions are
sought and the informed is one who is kept up to date with the
progress of the project (Doglione, 2016).

Critical Path Analysis
Definition of Software Requirements
There is need for definition of the minimum operational
and usage requirements for the project. The need for this is that
it acts as a quality control measure where a system needs to
meet certain criteria before installation or usage. The
specification of requirements is an important aspect so that the
team responsible can be aware of what developments are to be
made to the system and software.
Requirement Project Plan
The requirements for the project to be completed
successfully need to be defined and outlined properly so that the
project manager and the respective teams can be able to plan for
the project appropriately.
Software Integration
The software in development needs to be integrated within
other software for increased productivity. Integration testing
needs to be carried out
Software Testing and Quality Assurance
The software needs to undergo testing to ensure
requirements are met and that the new operating system
developed is bug free and usable. There is need for different
forms of testing to be applied on the new software to ensure that
all components are functional. The first test will involve the
installation procedures to be analyzed whether they are working
as they should and whether after installation, all required
components are successfully installed and are functional. In
addition, there is need for a functionality test to see whether the
new operating system will be operational fully and whether all
components work smoothly without interruptions.
18. There is need for a security test to be run on the new
operating system to ensure that is it robust and secure form
attacks. A good operating system should be secure from virus
and Trojan attacks, network attacks, backdoors and brute force
among other types on computer operating systems. The system
needs to have a smart screen integrated within it to ensure that
new software is tested and checked for validity before
installation. The user needs to receive a prompt to give them
details of the software, confirm whether they want to continue
with installation as well as warn them about the potential harm,
which could be caused by use of the software.
The system should also have secure authorization and
authentication options to have increased security. The system
should prompt for a password to be set during installation since
most users tend to forget to set up passwords on further
computer use until they experience an attack on their system. In
addition, there is need for the software to be bundled with an in
built firewall as a measure for protection from intrusion and
other attacks.
The system also needs to undergo a compatibility test to
ensure that the system can be able to function with other
additional software from different vendors to allow different
users to be able to have their needs met. Different software and
utility packages offer different users’ different needs met
therefor the need for compatibility testing.
Software Accreditation
This is the process of validation that a software has met all
requirements and can be released for use. The software can only
be validated if all the checks for quality assurance are passed
and that the software meets the minimum user requirements and
needs.
Patches and Updates
There is need for periodic patches and updates to be
released and configured to be downloaded automatically to
allow the system to be up to date and also protected from
different types of attacks which might develop over time. Also,
19. patches to software help in fixing possible bugs and other errors
in system software, which may not manifest or be detected in
the initial testing phases.
Documentation
It is important for a software to be tested and documented
so that there can be ease f troubleshooting. This is the role of
the developers of the system. A troubleshooting manual is easy
to develop form the system documentation since there is
outlining of all possible issues encountered and those projected
to encounter during development and implementation as well as
steps of development, which can be used to guide the user on
what steps to take to manage issues and repair problems with
functionality of an operating system. Failure to document can
lead to major issues in troubleshooting since this would require
the system to be analyzed anew, which would be tasking and
time consuming. In addition, documentation of a project is good
practice, which needs to be followed especially in an
information technology project.
Total Float in the Project
The free float in project management refers to the total
amount of time by which an activity can be delayed without the
early start of the successor activity being delayed. This is
achievable through the early finish date of each activity within
the project being subtracted from the early start date of the next
activity in the project. The total float is the total amount of time
that an activity can be delayed from when it is started and the
end date of the project is not delayed. The total slack refers to
the total amount of time within a schedule where a task can be
delayed before the completion of the entire project is delayed.
There is need to identify the free slack and float times within a
project for purposes of planning so that the project manager and
members can be able to cater for any events that might lead to a
project being delayed (Rouse, 2017).
Measures for Critical Path Management and Float Reduction
The critical path is a method in project management where
there is identification of activities that are critical to the
20. project. It makes use of an approach to scheduling where the
project is broken down into a number of work tasks and they are
displayed in a flow chart then there is calculation of the
duration
Best practices for minimization are to calculate the
shortest paths of processes. In addition, it is important for
calculation of early starts and end dates so that slack and float
can be accounted for and this can allow for better panning of
activities within a project. A project needs to have free float
and slack so that there is an allowance for flexibility in the
event one or more tasks are slightly delayed and others are
finished early. It is better for a project to be delivered before
time as opposed to it being delivered after the deadline since
there is an increase in costs and the budget might get
overstretched.
