Overview

In the assignment due in Week 5, you defined key portions of your Home Office Renovation project. Now, it is time to develop a work breakdown structure (WBS) and project schedule for your project.

Note: Please use your project from the Week 5 assignment to complete this assignment.

For this assignment, you will create Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). To create your WBS, you may use MS Word, MS Excel, Visio, or any other visual format that allows for graphical elements to be included. (See Figure 4.4 from Chapter 4 of your Project Management: The Managerial Process textbook). Alternatively, you may use a coded format using MS Word. (See Exhibit 4.1 – Coding the WBS from Chapter 4 of your Project Management: The Managerial Process textbook as an example. The example is in MS Project format, but the same could be done in MS Excel).

Instructions

Each of the following should be included in your WBS submission:

1. Create a WBS which contains graphical elements of the project scope including the project, major deliverables, and supporting deliverables. WBS should be easy to read and contain consistent formatting throughout.
2. Create a depiction of the project within the WBS.
   • One Level 1 is provided describing the complete project.
   • Three Level 2s are provided describing major deliverables.
   • Three Level 3s are provided describing supporting deliverables.
   • Two Level 4s are provided with the lowest manageable responsibility level.
3. For each of the identified deliverables (identified in the four levels from item #2), create a project schedule containing all activities from levels 1-4. Each activity should contain a start and end date and a list of resources required to complete the project.
4. Provide a minimum of three pieces of information that need to be communicated to stakeholders. For each of the three pieces – which creates an example of a project network – you should address who will be targeted; when they will receive the communication; what will be communicated; and how it will be communicated.

This course requires the use of Strayer Writing Standards (SWS). The library is your home for SWS assistance, including citations and formatting. Please refer to the Library site for all support. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is:

• Develop a project plan including the critical elements of project scope, priorities, work breakdown structure (WBS), communication plan, and a project network to ensure effective implementation.

Unit Outcomes:

• Integrate methods for assessing risks.
• Prepare a rubric for classifying risk.
• Report results of risk analysis.

Course Outcome:

IT528-3: Develop appropriate action plans that address risks.

Purpose

There are many methods for categorical prediction using principal components. In this Assignment, you will practice one of these — linear discriminant analysis, in R Studio. You will classify risk through the rubric of a risk matrix and then build a model to assess the risk. Once you have built a model, you will report and explain the results.

Assignment Instructions

Much has been made of the deteriorating public infrastructure in the United States. Roads, bridges, sidewalks, etc. need repair all over the country. This Assignment will focus on bridges. Engineers with responsibility for bridges categorize them into one of four categories with respect to risk: Monitor, Schedule Assessment, Schedule Repair/Replacement, or Immediate Repair/Replacement. Monitor means that the bridge is in good condition and is not in danger of failing. Schedule Assessment means that the bridge is showing signs of risk and should be evaluated. Schedule Repair/Replacement means that the bridge has deterioration that presents risk to users. Immediate Repair/Replacement means that the bridge has deterioration that presents risk of failure. In a Word document, create a four-quadrant risk matrix rubric and label the quadrants High Risk/High Impact; High Risk/Low Impact; Low Risk/High Impact; Low Risk/Low Impact. Place each of the four bridge conditions into the quadrant that you believe is appropriate for that condition. You need not have something in each of the four quadrants – your task is to appropriately assess and classify risk based on bridge condition. For each of the four bridge conditions, within the quadrant you selected in the risk matrix, give an example of an issue that may arise if the risk condition is not addressed.

IT 600 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric

Overview

IT professionals are often called upon to make decisions, provide recommendations, and perform analyses that require an in-depth understanding of the inner workings of an operating system. This summative assessment will provide students with the knowledge and skills required to achieve and maintain this level of understanding throughout their careers. For the summative assessment, students will perform a technical evaluation of an operating system. Students will be offered a choice of operating systems to analyze. Students will use real-time and log-based tools, empirical observation, and scholarly research to analyze the core subsystems of the operating system. For each subsystem, students will research and describe the technology used in that subsystem and compare it to other available technologies. For the final report, students will assess the results of their analyses and perform an overall evaluation of the operating system, with recommendations for how it might be improved.

For the summative assessment you will perform an in-depth technical evaluation of an operating system. The evaluation will be made in terms of the ability of the system and its supporting hardware to meet a set of organizational needs and technical requirements. The organization is a global enterprise that provides premium technical support to other enterprise businesses.

Management will use your evaluation as one element among several in their assessment of options for future technology adoption. You will define the technical requirements, based on tasks performed by the organization, the applications used, system loads, security, system management, maintenance, and performance. The scope of the evaluation will include analyses and assessments of the hardware-software interface, the techniques used to implement processes and threads, the file systems supported by the operating system, the input/output subsystem, and the operating system security features. You will use these analyses and assessments to produce a comprehensive evaluation, which will be written in the form of a detailed technology review.

SNHU will provide tools to support analysis of some commonly used operating systems, but you may select another operating system if you have the resources to do so. There will also be several milestones throughout the course that will allow you to develop the evaluation incrementally.

The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Two, Three, and Seven. Your final report will be submitted in Module Nine.

Prompt

Your technical evaluation of an operating system should include analyses and assessments of the hardware-software interface, the techniques used to implement processes and threads, the file systems supported by the operating system, the I/O subsystem, and the operating system security features. You will use these analyses and assessments to produce a comprehensive evaluation, which will be written in the form of a detailed technology review.

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:

1. Organizational Needs and Requirements
   1. Develop an organizational profile that analyzes the tasks performed by the organization, the computer applications in use or expected to be in use, and the estimated system loads anticipated for the operating system.
   2. What are the organizational, security, and performance and reliability requirements related to operating system function,
      management, and maintenance?
