In this assessment, you are managing a project for a software start-up that is developing a new application. This application will allow venues, bands, and musical acts to post their events to the application. Users can then search by dates, locations, and music genres to find who is performing, when, and where. While the general outcome is defined, how to get there is not. It is unclear what the end-users will really want and how they will want it in the app. It is also unclear if this is going to be an app that is downloadable from the App Store and Google Play or if it will be a progressive web app that is accessible from any of the major web browsers. It is also unclear what developer skill sets will be needed to write the code and manage the server and application. As the project manager, you must assess this project to determine if the performance domains can be applied to the app project and improve project performance.

Write a 525- to 700-word project assessment in which you:

· Determine which development life cycle (predictive or adaptive) you will use.

· Identify the knowledge dimensions necessary to complete this project.

· Describe at least 1 key value you will want to be delivered from each of the eight project domains.

· Explain which 3 of the 12 project principles you think are key to the success of this project. Choose from the following:

· Focus on value

· Demonstrate leadership behavior

· Tailor based on context

· Create a collaborative project team environment

· Be a diligent, respectful, and caring steward

· Effectively engage with stakeholders

· Navigate complexity

· Recognize, evaluate, and respond to system interactions

· Embrace adaptability and resilience

· Enable change to achieve the envisioned future state

· Build quality into processes and deliverables

· Optimize risk responses

For this assessment, you are demonstrating how a project manager (PM) uses models, methods, and artifacts in project management in different contexts, both project planning and project implementation. One important function of the PM is to align resources and plans in a project portfolio to the organization’s objectives. PMs often work on multiple projects at once, so for this assessment you will propose a project and provide a status update on another project that is in the last stages, nearing closing.

As an associate PM of a medium-size company, you will be appearing before the project management office (PMO). You will be proposing a project and providing updates on current project status.

Create a 12- to 16-slide presentation with speaker notes to provide additional details that are not present on the slides. Your presentation will include your slides on the project proposal and project implementation status updates.

Include the following in your presentation:

Part 1: Project Proposal

You have identified a process improvement project that, upon completion, will improve customer retention and help grow the business into a new market. Because this is a process improvement project, there are many things known, and the company possesses most of the expertise to complete this project. Summarize your ideas for this process improvement project. Be sure to do the following:

· Identify the 2 key documents in the initiating phase that you will develop. These documents can help you present this idea to your manager. Consider what you have learned in this class to prepare many of the key documents to be considered in the initiating and planning phase. By doing this, you hope to anticipate some of your manager’s questions and concerns.

· Summarize 4 key deliverables that you would develop or deliver in the planning phase.

· Summarize 4 key deliverables in the executing phase that you would develop or deliver.

Part 2: Project Implementation Status

Another project you are acting as associate PM is in the execution phase. It is an engineering project that has specific statements of work calling for parts, specifications, and acceptable tolerance levels, along with price, delivery, and other contracted terms. This project has a budget and schedule that is baselined and has a management reserve of 5%. Next week, you must present a status report of the project to the PMO and explain how you are managing the scope, timeline, and other aspects of the project. Summarize the state of the project. Be sure to:

· Evaluate the 4 key areas where you will focus your efforts on when analyzing and monitoring the scope of the project.

· Describe 3 monitoring or controlling activities or processes you would engage in to ensure that product quality, cost, schedule, and risks are according to the plan.

· Describe 4 activities you might engage in or documents you may help deliver in the closing phase.

· Explain project termination for this engineering project. It will be integrated into the company’s existing product line manufacturing system once completed.

Format your references according to APA guidelines.

Submit your assessment.

Assignment: Evidence-Based Capstone Project, Part 6: Disseminating Results

The dissemination of EBP results serves multiple important roles. Sharing results makes the case for your decisions. It also adds to the body of knowledge, which creates opportunities for future practitioners. By presenting results, you also become an advocate for EBP, creating a culture within your organization or beyond that informs, educates, and promotes the effective use of EBP.

To Prepare:

Review the final PowerPoint presentation you submitted in Module 5, and make any necessary changes based on the feedback you have received and on lessons you have learned throughout the course.
Consider the best method of disseminating the results of your presentation to an audience.

To Complete:

Create a 5-minute, 5- to 6-slide narrated PowerPoint presentation of your Evidence-Based Project.

Be sure to incorporate any feedback or changes from your presentation submission in Module 5.
Explain how you would disseminate the results of your project to an audience. Provide a rationale for why you selected this dissemination strategy.

Professor's Feedback

Nice title slide.

Slide 2: "They aspire..." "Their vision...." "Their mission...." WHO is "they/their"?

The current problem is not completely defined. There are no notes pages. Scope of the problem is not clearly defined. There are only two sources listed-what about the four studies that should be critiqued here?

For the tables, share results not process. What did you learn about your topic specifically from the tables? This is the evidence to support the change you want to make.

The elements required are incomplete. Be sure to review the rubric each week, and to fully describe and discuss as required. Thanks for your hard work this week. I appreciate your efforts. I look forward to more information next week.
