methodology

A project plan is a document created at the beginning of the project lifecycle that gives stakeholders and everyone else involved a clear idea of what the project will entail in terms of effort, time, cost, and anticipated results. 

The methodology or approach the project manager plans to use to manage the project must be identified before the project plan can be created. Choosing a methodology is important because a methodology provides the framework—that is, an overall process and suggested documents and deliverables—that will guide project development from beginning to end. Some project methodologies are more appropriate for some types of projects than for others. 

Over the next few weeks you will develop pieces of a project plan. This week you will determine your methodology based on project requirements and the components needed in your plan.

Read the Manage Your Health Inc. Case Study and complete the assignment below.

Consider the differences between Agile and waterfall.

Select 1 methodology to use for a project plan for this initiative.

Create a simplified project plan such as the examples listed in the “Tips” section below. Include, at least, the following criteria:

  • Name of task
  • Duration
  • Predecessors
  • Notes

After completing your simplified project plan, write a 175-word paragraph and complete the following:

  • Define which methodology, Agile or waterfall, is most appropriate for this project. Why? Cite at least 2 sources to support your rationale.
  • Describe the following roles for this project: project manager, project sponsor, business analyst, and scrum master or program manager.

You may create your simplified project plan using Microsoft® Excel® or another software application of your choice. 

Tips:
  • Research additional project plan examples online.
  • Consider the application characteristics and requirements when building your project plan. For example, the app will require a search feature so employees can search for available programs, will require security to protect personal information, etc., which will help with the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). Note: This information will be helpful in the Wk 2 – Apply: Work Breakdown Structure assignment.
  • Read the 2 linked examples of project plans implemented as Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheets: Example Plan A and Example Plan B. Use these as guides in creating your own draft project plan. Notice the differences between these 2 examples in terms of length (overall and task length), structure of the work breakdown (iterative vs. non-iterative), and methodology.

Project Description:

You manage several apartment complexes in Phoenix, Arizona. You  created a dataset that lists details for each apartment complex, such as  apartment number, including number of bedrooms, whether the unit is  rented or vacant, the last remodel date, rent, and deposits. You will  use the datasets to aggregate data to analyze the apartments at the  complexes.

Start   Excel. Download and open the file named Exp19_Excel_Ch05_Cap_Apartments.xlsx. Grader has automatically added   your last name to the beginning of the filename.

Before subtotalling the data,   you need to sort the data.
 

  Select the Summary sheet. Sort the data by Apartment Complex in  alphabetical   order and further sort it by # Bed (the number of  bedrooms) from smallest to   largest.

You want to use the Subtotal   feature to display the average total deposit by number of bedrooms for each   apartment complex.
 

  Use the Subtotal feature to insert subtotal rows by Apartment  Complex to   calculate the average Total Deposit. Add a second subtotal  (without removing   the first subtotal) by # Bed to calculate the  average Total Deposit by the   number of bedrooms.

Use the outline symbols to   display only the subtotal rows. Create  an automatic outline and collapse the   outline above Total Deposit.

You want to create a PivotTable to determine the total monthly rental   revenue for occupied apartments.
 

  Display the Rentals sheet and create a blank PivotTable on a new  worksheet to   the left of the Rentals sheet. Change the name of the  worksheet to Rental Revenue. Name   the PivotTable Rental Revenue

Display the Apartment Complex and # Bed fields in Rows and the Rental   Price field as Values.

Format the Sum of Rental Price   for Accounting Number Format with zero decimal places and enter the custom   name Total   Rent Collected.

Select the Occupied field for   the filter and set the filter to Yes to display data for occupied apartments.

You want to calculate the total   monthly rental revenue if the rates increase by 5% for the occupied   apartments.
 

  Insert a calculated field to multiply the Rental Price by 1.05. Change the name to New Rental   Revenue. Apply   Accounting Number Format with zero decimal places.

Select the range B3:C3 and apply   these formats: wrap text, Align Right horizontal alignment, and 30 row height. Select column B and   set 9.29 column width. Select column C   and set 14.43 column   width.

Apply Light Orange, Pivot Style   Medium 10 to the PivotTable and display banded rows.

Insert a slicer for # Bed so that you can filter the dataset by    number of bedrooms. Change the slicer caption to # of Bedrooms. 

Change the slicer height to 1.4 inches and width to 1.75 inches. Apply Light Orange,   Slicer Style Light 2. Cut the slicer and paste it in cell E2.

Insert a timeline for the Last   Remodel field. Change the time  period to YEARS. Apply Light Orange, Timeline   Style Light 2. Change  the timeline height to 1.4 inches and with to 3.75 inches. 

The Databases sheet contains two   tables. You will create a relationship between those tables.
 

  Display the Databases sheet. Create a relationship between the  APARTMENTS   table using the Code field and the COMPLEX table using the  Code field.

You want to create a PivotTable   from the related tables.
 

  Create a PivotTable using the data model on a new sheet. Change the sheet   name to Bedrooms.   Name the PivotTable BedroomData.

Select the Apartment Name field   from the COMPLEX table for Rows,  the # Bed field for Columns, and the # Bed   field as Values. This will  display the number of apartments with the   specified number of bedrooms  per apartment complex. Display the values as a percentage   of row  totals.

Create a Clustered Column   PivotChart. Cut the chart and paste it in cell A13 using the Destination   Theme.

Select the 3-bedroom data series   and apply the Black, Text 1,  Lighter 50% solid fill color. Apply Black, Text   1 font color to the  vertical axis and category axis. Change the chart height   to 3 inches  and the   width to 5 inches, if necessary. Hide the field buttons in the  PivotChart.

Create a footer on all   worksheets with your name in the left, the  sheet name code in the center, and   the file name code in the right.

Save and close Exp19_Excel_Ch05_Cap_Apartments.xlsx.   Exit Excel. Submit the file as directed.
