• Project charter, including a detailed Scope Statement, Out of scope, Goal, Objectives, a draft project "Work Breakdown Structure" (WBS) or Task List, that must also show dependencies

Some examples of IS/IT projects: 1. Creating an additional net-worked lab of computers at a Local Private College in Sydney. 2. Design and develop a System to maintain client records in a Nail Salon. 3. Migration to Cloud Services in a Real Estate Agency. 4. Customising a Data Base Management System for a Local Tennis Club. 5. Design and Develop a System to help students at your College find part-time/casual jobs
Irrespective of the project you choose; you could incorporate some of the following tasks, if appropriate for your project. • Hire a consultant to assist with identifying a suitable System. • Recruit the project team of internal and external staff. • Trial a short list of suitable Systems with input from the Project Management Champions about their major pain points. • Gain agreement with major Stakeholders on the preferred System. • Negotiate with the Vendor, with the assistance of the Purchasing Department and procure the licenses. • Implement the chosen System, and measure the Return on Investment (ROI) and degree of customer satisfaction. • Train users and IT maintenance staff across the whole organisation. Work out the project budget. The goals are to gain project approval, determine the best solution, implement the solution, monitor performance and ensure benefits realisation. The project manager will act as the liaison between internal and external stakeholders.
