Resources and Scheduling Agile methods involve a series of small iterative completed steps leading up to the end. In agile we focus on product rather than execution of the project plan itself. Work broken down into iterations (sprints) and resources assigned to these sprints. We have shorter planning cycles that leads to reduced up front planning and more resource flexibility. Organization and Staffing Manpower planning: Based on the inputs of the required department, a draft of a manpower planning sheet will be made by the project leader. Recruitment strategy-In this scenario, lateral recruitment will be better than campus hiring. Selection-It can be done through in-house search avenues like linkedin, monster.com or can be outsourced to any consultancy. We can assign specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and time bound targets and keep a check on target completion. Performance appraisal will be based on target completion and performance. 3. Technical Management and Control (Section 4 has been pre-completed) 3.1 Change Management Changes to any specifications at CapraTek will be done by submitting a change report. The approval of the change must be made by the project manager. All risks will be reviewed by the technical committee each month and formal risk reports will be submitted to the management team on a quarterly basis. All changes must incorporate a cost reports to be given to the financial committee each week for review by the project sponsor. All issues will be reviewed at the project management meeting. Issues that delay the development schedules will be resolved by the technical committee. 4. Standard and Procedures 4.1 Deliverable Standard All design deliverables will be submitted using standard UML using Visio. Alternative tools may be used pending approval from the development lead. All deliverables will be reviewed by all stakeholders before the final signature by the project manager. 4.2 Process Methodology Diagram Chosen Agile methodology: Software development process using Agile methodology 4.3 Process Methodology Explanation We have chosen an agile methodology for the software development process. Today software development markets are changing at a faster pace than ever before and it requires more agility than retrenchment. How can we handle changes in a rapidly changing software development industry? WIth agile methodology we can easily cope with these changes. 4.4 Phase Description Phase 1 - Analysis Requirement gathering, elicitation of information from stakeholders and prior information about the project. Phase 2 – Design & development Preparing wireframe of solution and reviewing wirefame. Design and development of Actual solutions. Phase 3 - Test Testing of sprints(solution), if any discrepancy is found then go to phase 1. Phase 4 - Integration Integration of current sprints(Iterations) to the other sprints. Expanded Phase Details . . 5. Technical Standards 5.1 Technology Stack Diagram 5.2 Cloud Environment Amazon Web Services will be used for CapraTek’s cloud deployment. Existing applications are already deployed on Amazon Web Services and it is simpler to keep all the technology here rather than deployed to another cloud provider such as Microsoft Azure or Google Cloud. 5.3 Programming Languages C#: C# is the primary language used to develop the applications for CapraTek. Using Microsoft Xamarin, developers will be able to deploy applications to iOS and Android using C#. ASP.NET: For web applications at CapraTek, they will be developed using ASP.NET. This will be used in conjunction with HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript. Java: There are some existing legacy applications that use Java and will continue to be supported with Java. There are also various projects that require Java to be used due to existing libraries and code base with third parties. 5.4 Servers . 5.5 Databases SQL Server 2016: Most of CapraTek’s databases will be using SQL Server 2016 as C# and ASP.NET are the primary programming languages at CapraTek. Oracle 12c: For the legacy CapraTek applications, there are some that requires Oracle 12c. There are no plans to continue to use Oracle 12c for future projects. Any plans to use Oracle 12c should be discussed with the project manager. 5.6 Development Workstations Development workstations must support Visual Studio 2017 and NetBeans. Development workstations should have the minimum hardware: · 2.4GHz CPU. · 8GB RAM. · 256GB SSD boot drive, 1TB HDD storage drive. · 2GB graphics card Development machines that are used for data analysis or video creation should have the minimum hardware: · 2.4GHz CPU. · 16GB RAM. · 256GB SSD boot drive, 512GB SSD storage. · 4GB graphics card. 5.7 Development Software . 6. Software Phases 6.1 Phase 1: Software Requirements · Gather requirements from clients by elicitation. · Gather information from our development team about resources and tools. · Discuss requirements from client and information from development team with project leader and executive. 6.2 Phase 2: Software Design · Break projects into sprints(Iterations). · Assign responsibilities to respective team members. 6.3 Phase 3: Software Construction The software construction phase will develop new code or modify existing code, unit test, integrate, and document software. While reused code will not be expected to conform to a single coding standard, changed source code must be supplemented with enough new comments and standard code headers to meet commenting provisions of the coding standard and to promote understandability. 6.4 Phase 4: Software Testing · · . · . 7. Verification and Validation Our developed software has met all the desired specifications and quality standards. If it’s met then we move forward to deployment. If it does not meet specifications(Intended outcomes) then we go to phase 1. 8. Maintenance Process 8.1 Maintenance Plan Diagram < maintenance="" plan="" activity="" diagram="">. 8.2 Maintenance Plan Refer to the software development UML diagram if there any anomaly occur in software development or a routine update. We will again gather information about anomalies or update. Implement and Integrate that in sprints. 9. Human Factors (Section 10 has been pre-completed) 9.1 Training All employees at CapraTek will need training, from computer literacy to the usage of each of the software applications developed. A culture change management plan will be needed to train those users involved of the new methods of conducting business and the technology to support these new approaches. ***End***
