- Resources: The project team consists of 3 developers, 1 tester, 1 designer, 1 BA and project
managers who must collaborate efficiently to meet project deadlines.
Request 2: define at least 5 roles you might have in your project team and at least 2
responsibilities (mapped to the project work packages and/or activities) for each role.
Project manager: Internal stakeholder. He has a responsibility to create a project charter and
kick off the meeting. Furthermore, his role includes planning and organizing, managing tasks,
budgeting, controlling costs and other factors. Everything they do helps make sure the project
can be completed on time and on budget, and more importantly, profitable.
BA:Internal stakeholder. He will create the Business Requirement and SRS . He bridges the
gap between external stakeholders and the development team, interpreting business
requirements into understandable development tasks to match a final software product with the
expected business value
Developer team : internal stakeholder , He writes, debugs and executes the source code of a
software application in executing phase
Designer team : internal stakeholder A UI/UX designer’s job is to create user-friendly interfaces
that enable users to understand how to use complex technical products
Tester team : Internal stakeholder. The role of a tester is to test out products for bug and
provide reports to the project teams about any issues or improvements that the product may
require
Customer;.. external stakeholder plays a vital role in providing requirements, feedback, and
validation during the product development or service delivery process. Their satisfaction and
adoption of the product/service are crucial for business success and growth.
identify 3 stakeholders and decide (with relevant reasons) if they are: High power or low power;
High interest or low interest; Are they unaware of the project? Are they resistant to the project?
Are they neutraP Are they supportive? Are they leading?
Based on your findings, design your strategy for how you would manage these stakeholders

Dạng 3 CÂU 2: Request 2: what type of organization you think the project is using and what
type of organization you think that should or should have used along with the reasons for this?
Provide relevant reasons for your answers
Considering the criticality of timely delivery and the need for close coordination among team
members, a projectized organization structure could be more suitable. In a projectized structure,
resources are dedicated exclusively to the project, leading to a more focused approach and
faster decision-making. This would be beneficial for meeting the tight 4-month timeframe of the
project.
By adopting a projectized organization structure, the project team can maximize efficiency,
minimize delays, and ensure successful delivery of the Student Learning Management System
within the stipulated 4-month timeframe.

- Description: Integrating the SLM system with social media platforms for
announcements or notifications is not part of the project scope.
- Classification: Out-of-Scope
- Description: The project will generate standard reports on student grades and
progress. However, developing custom analytics or specialized reporting tools is
outside the project's scope.
- Classification: Out-of-Scope
- Classification: Out-of-Scope
7. Multi-Language Support

- Description: The SLM system will be developed in a single language (e.g., English or
Vietnamese). Providing multi-language support is not included in the project's scope.
- Classification: Out-of-Scope
- Classification: Out-of-Scope
- Description: The SLM system will provide the framework for managing and tracking
learning progress but will not include the creation of course content.
- Classification: Out-of-Scope
- Description: The system will not integrate with external educational platforms (e.g.,
Coursera, edX). It will focus solely on managing internal academic activities within
FPT University.

among
them to complete one of the project deliverables
Deliverable: Project management Plan (Risk, Scope, Schedule, Quality, Resource, Stakeholder,
Procurement, Communication, integration, :

Create Architecture design of module 1 -> Create Detail Design of Module 1 (FS)
Create prototype for module 1 -> Review prototype for module 1 with customer (FS)
Implement coding for module 1 -> executing the UT test for module 1 (SS)
Perform integration testing -> Perform System testing (FS)
Deploy in Staging environment -> UAT the module 1 in staging environment (FS)
Dạng 2 câu 4:
Answer:
Currently the project is 3-weeks behind the schedule. In order to make a feasible plan to recover, i’
will shorten the project 3 weeks compared to the planned schedule
If you want to shorten the project time by 3 weeks which means the new duration of the project
(assuming no delay) is 16 weeks , none path can exceed this number. First of all, when calculate
the activity to decrease the duration , you have to consider firstly all the task in critical path- the path
that has longest duration , but now 8 weeks have passed, (now you’re in task B ), so we only have a
way to shorten the time in task D, G, I . The appropriate choice is left with task G because a task
with a duration of 5 weeks should be prioritized to shorten the time. So we will have a plan to shorten
task G from 5 weeks to only 2 weeks .
But after the critical path had been reduced to 16 weeks, Path 4 still exceeding this new duration
(path 5’s duration is 17 weeks) . Obviously, we have to reduce path 4 by 1 weeks . Task E should be
prioritized to reduce 1 week as it has a longer duration than task H.
Briefly , in order to reduce the project duration by 3 weeks, we have to shorten task G by 3 weeks
and task E by 1 week.
The shortening method is as follow:
Crashing method
· Solution 1: Add people to join project to complete task G earlier than 3 weeks, task E earlier
than 1 weeks
· Solution 3 Reward team if they can complete task G earlier than 3 weeks, task E earlier than
1 week

Request 5: Given the following information for a one-year project after 2 months since the
project start,
answer the below questions: PV (Planned Value)= 22.000, EV (Earned Value)= 20.000, AC
(Actual Cost)=25.000, BAC (Budget At Completion)= 120.000
a) What are the cost and schedule performance of the project? Show your calculations.
b) How is the project doing in terms of project cost and time (schedule). Explain about those
statuses
c) Use the CPI to calculate the estimate of the rest cost the team would need to complete the
project.
d) Use the SPI to estimate how many months it will take the team to finish this project.
b) Project Status
● Cost Status:
○ The CPI of 0.8 indicates the project is costing more than planned. For every
dollar spent, only $0.80 worth of work is being completed.
● Schedule Status:
○ The SPI of 0.91 shows the project is progressing slower than planned. Only 91%
of the planned work has been completed.
Summary of Results
1. CPI: 0.8, indicating cost overruns.
2. SPI: 0.91, indicating schedule delays.
3. ETC: $125,000 more needed to complete the project.
4. Estimated Time to Complete: 13.2 months (1.2 months delay).

Request 5: Your project team have completed a workload equivalent to $3,000 and has spent
$4,000 to
date. Assume that you were budgeted $5,000 for the work scheduled. At the start, the team has
estimated
project budget of $9.000 and the project needs 12 months to finish. Calculate and give your
calculations
and comments on the project's current status, and the forecasts to complete the project in terms
of cost
and schedule.
EV – 3000
AC – 4000
PV – 5000
BAC – 9000
DAC – 12 months
CPI Cost performance index EV/AC bằng 0.75 < 1 -> over budget
SPI Schedule performance index EV/PV là 0.6 < 1 -> behind schedule
So the current status of this project is over budget and behind the schedule. My recommendation
is that we should negotiate with customer in order to increase budget and reschedule
