You will first develop a short response paper that covers the following components, using appropriate terminology in your response: .
• Define the ten knowledge areas and five process groups of PMI®, differentiating between them and discussing the activities that occur, inputs, tools, technologies, and outputs.
• How are the knowledge areas and process groups related to each other? Next, you will develop a project management plan report that covers a series of required components, using appropriate terminology in your response.
Using the Harvard case study, Waterloo Regional Police Services: Reassessing the CIMS Project, begin by selecting one of the two following scenarios to work on as you complete your project management plan report: Project Scenario 1 Summary: Technical Redesign You are the project manager responsible for one of the projects in the overarching CIMS project program portfolio, and you will be managing the technical redesign due to the new federal requirements. Chief Gravill, your project sponsor, needs the technical software designs to be reviewed and the new federal requirements incorporated. Then the development, testing, validation, pilot, and deployment plans need a complete reworking.
In addition to updates for the internal platform, updates are needed for all websites to comply with inclusion and disability standards. This project must be completed first before the vendor selection team can create the new requests for proposal (RFPs) and start vetting the new software vendors. Your development team has been given high-level sizing of six months and $300,000.
The rest of the project team and operational costs are estimated to be $150,000. Chief Gravill says the project cannot take more than six months and has approved $200,000 more in the budget if the project can be done within four months.
