PROJECT MANAGEMENT
1.1 Project Initiation
1.1.1 Business Case
1.1.1.1 Executive Summary
Management Information System (MIS) is a set of flow-processing operations
based on computer data and integrated with other procedures to give
information in a timely and effective manner to support management
functions. This finding is also apparent when we consider that the amount of
current data and knowledge is overgrowing, and efficiency is only achievable
if the essential information is available quickly; efficiency is the result of a lack
of a good management information system.
1.1.1.1.1 Issue
1.1.1.1.3 Recommendations
Various ideas and alternatives were considered in order to discover the best
method to use technology to improve project operations and save wasted
time. The approach detailed in this document enables us to accomplish our
company goals of continuously improving efficiency, lowering costs, and
capitalizing on technology. The proposed project would move the data and
functions of our current mainframe system in a methodical manner.
Phase IV: The team will build a temporary legacy platform within the
technology that will be used for day-to-day operations for online transactions.
This will be used as a backup system to keep track of all information.

1.1.3 Stakeholder Strategy
1.1.3.1 Introduction
A management information system is a central data repository capable of
collecting, organizing, and storing student data as well as processing,
analyzing, and producing various reports from it. This is covered under the
MIS umbrella. Thus, the use of technology in schools may result in a
reduction in paper use and a shift to an electronic format for the majority of
school office work. As a result, the usage of management information systems
by schools will improve the efficacy of their administrative services.
Once identified, the project team will evaluate and categorize the
Management Information System stakeholders This analysis will determine
the level of power and influence of the stakeholders. It will also assess the
amount of involvement of stakeholders in the project.
● X
● S
● Y
● V
● W
● T ● Q
Stakeholder T, displayed in the lower left quadrant of the power and interest
analysis chart above, requires the least effort. Stakeholder V in the upper left
quadrant, questions are adequately handled, and interest in this region should
increase. Stakeholders Y, W, and Q in the lower right quadrant must be kept
up to date on project status and any other progress related to the project.
Stakeholders S and X, in the upper right quadrant, are important players in
project planning.
The stakeholder analysis matrix, which is based on the power and interest
matrix provided above, includes stakeholder concerns, levels of involvement,
and tactics. The stakeholder analysis matrix will be updated with new project-
related topics.
Stakeholder Concerns Quadrant Strategy
The Management Information System's required tasks are defined in the Work
Breakdown Structure Dictionary, which includes all tasks, resources, and
plans. The WBS Dictionary describes each work package in the WBS, which
helps with resource planning, job completion, and deciding whether
deliverables satisfy project objectives.The Management Information System
schedule was created using the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and
Project Charter with all the gathered input from all the project team members.
Following the Project Sponsor's approval, the schedule was completed,
authorized, and baseline. MS Project Gantt Chart will be used by the Project
Manager to keep track of the schedule. Any potential schedule changes will
go through the change management process. If defined boundary controls are
likely to be breached, a change request will be submitted to the Project
Manager. The Project Manager and team will determine the impact of the
change on the schedule, cost, resources, and scope.
Requestor will submit a completed BCP change request form to the project
manager
Step #2: Log change in the change request register (Project Manager)
The project manager will maintain a log of all change requests for the duration
of the project
The project manager will conduct an evaluation of the impact of the change to
cost, risk, schedule, and scope
Any team member or stakeholder may submit a change request for the MIS.
The MIS Sponsor will update any changes to project scope, cost, or schedule
must meet his approval. All change requests will be logged in the change
control register by the Project Manager and tracked through to completion
whether approved or not.
The Project Manager, Stakeholders, or any member of the project team may
start proposed scope changes. All modification requests will be forwarded to
the Project Manager, who will assess the requested scope change. After
accepting the scope change request, the Project Manager will submit it to the
Change Control Board and Project Sponsor for approval. Following
acceptance of scope adjustments by the Change Control Board and Project
Sponsor, the Project Manager will update all project papers and notify all
stakeholders of the change. The Project Sponsor is responsible for accepting
the final project deliverables and project scope based on comments and input
from the Project Manager and Stakeholders
The final output of the project must be explicitly accepted by the project
evaluator. This approval is contingent on a review of all project
documentation, testing results, beta trial results, and fulfillment of all
tasks/work packages and product functionality.
Quality Specialists are needed to support the Project Manager with Quality
Management Plans. They are also responsible for developing a solution to
improve the project's performance. They must also conduct quality testing and
inspections under quality standards.
The remaining team members are responsible for assisting the Project
Manager and Quality Specialists in meeting the stated standard. For the
project to move forward, all quality standards for the Information System must
be met, and brainstorming with the Project Manager and team is necessary.
The Quality Control will give all of the required tools and procedures to ensure
that all quality standards are met. This process will ensure that the project
successfully meets the quality standards. With every process the project has
made, the task of the Project Manager also and the Quality Specialist is to
keep track of all the details and monitor its quality standards if the project
meets the specified requirements. All relevant project inspections must be
monitored, and corrective steps must be taken if problems arise.
1.2.1.13 Risk Management Plan
The approach for managing risks for Management information system(MIS)
includes a methodical process such as Providing a comprehensive plan is
necessary for using information systems in the organizations before using
MIS. Absorbing the efficient and skillful employees and creating suitable
motivations for the stability of the existing employees. The formation of the
information services institutions in all the important administrative
organizations and determining the institutions as the supporters (MIS) of the
organizations. Forming MIS council or MIS directing committee from the initial
stages of MIS project in the organization.
The project manager will evaluate each risk and the risk management process
after the project is finished, as part of the closing process. The project
manager will determine any modifications that can be made to the risk
management procedure for subsequent projects in light of this analysis.
These enhancements will be recorded in the knowledge base of lessons
learned.

The top three high probability and high impact risks to this project are:
1. Malware
Digital hackers are watching your every move and trick you to download
malware and take control of your computer remotely. They use malware to
attack computer networks to perpetrate crimes. Fraudsters use viruses,
malware, spyware, spams, and phishing to gain access to your sensitive
personal information and commit financial crimes. Defend your data against
malware through secure servers, whether physical or in cloud, and shield
against vulnerabilities.
2. Theft & Loss
In order to decide the asperity of the risks labeled by the team, a chance and
impact determinant was filling a place each risk. This process allowed the
project manager to supply instructions risks located upon the effect they can
display in the project. The project manager resorted to a possibility-impact
model to facilitate the team in exciting each risk to the appropriate
establishment of the chart.
Once the risks were appointed an expectation and impact and established in
the appropriate position on the chart, the recorder captured the things
produced and the project manager transported the process aware of the next
step: risk mitigation/avoidance planning.
Risk monitoring will be a continuous process throughout the life of this project.
The most likely and greatest impact risks have been added to the project plan
to ensure that they are monitored during the time the project is exposed to
each risk. Each risk is monitored by a Risk Manager at the appropriate time in
the project schedule.
The project team must identify and categorize any possible risks when the
Project Manager arranges a meeting. Since the system might experience a
data security risk, the team must assign a risk score based on the impact of
the potential risk on the project. Thus, having a Risk Register for this project is
necessary as it assists the Project Team in addressing and providing
solutions to all risks that may arise throughout the project.

1.2.2.8 WBS
All of the work packages on the Work Breakdown Structure will be separated
into independent tasks that will necessitate a weekly minimum of 120 working
hours. This project scope will help the Project Manager monitor and manage
the team's tasks as the project progresses. The Management Information
System is separated into six phases for the Work Breakdown Structure: the
Management Phase, Audit Phase, Reports, Create Account, List of users and
also the sub- system These phases are further subdivided into work
packages, with each requiring at least 120 working hours. (See the figure
below for further details.)
By introducing objectivity to the entire process, the project team will validate
the system's performance and increase the odds of the final product, service,
or outcome being accepted. It formalizes work scope acceptance in this
context and is primarily concerned with work outputs. This procedure
formalizes the acceptance of the project scope by the stakeholders. All project
stakeholders agree on the project scope; as the project progresses, the
various project deliverables are presented and compared to the work
deliverables. When the project sponsor agrees to the scope change, it is
communicated to all stakeholders.
The Management Information System may run into problems when it comes
to determining its scope control. Scope Control is the final management of the
project's scope; therefore, monitoring is not the only purpose for preserving
the project's proper scope flow. If the actual performance described by the
company's standard did not match its criteria, a prompt reaction is required.
The most important component of the project's success is planning and
creating the project's purpose; when the scope of the Management
Information System needs to be adjusted, the project team's scope control is
accountable; and assessing the changes must be correctly completed by the
team. If the Scope Control is not completed successfully, the project's
performance may suffer. The Management Information System has a broad
scope to monitor in order to properly serve its users, stakeholders, and
sponsors.
This plan formally documents the process for the transition of the
powers, duties, activities, and functions of tasks and tools for the
MIS. It describes the approach to transitioning work and
employees from MIS. The creation and implementation of a new
MIS database for Bestlink College of the Philippines (BCP). This
database will allow BCP to integrate all subsystem and reporting
into a consolidated database
For this transition, MIS Corp will maintain its existing staff on-site
throughout the transition period. No additional staffing
requirements are anticipated to complete the transition. The
transition is expected to take 60 days to complete. Immediately
prior to the transition, MIS Corporation will stand up its transition
team in order to facilitate the activities necessary for successful
transition. MIS corp will have its staff on site at the beginning of
the 60 days transition period and will establish a similar team to
work to coordinate the contract’s transition. It is also assumed that
BCP will provide adequate workspace for both contractors
throughout the duration of the transition. BCP should also
designate a transition project manager to work with both
contractors throughout the transition.
Contracting Officer
BCP Responsible for overseeing all
contract actions and deliverables,
responsible for ensuring
accountability on all funding and
budget items pertaining to the
contract
For this contract transition, all workforce members will remain with
their current organization. The MIS workforce will remain on-site to
perform their transition activities until such time that the transition
is completed and approved by all parties. This will allow adequate
time to perform all transition activities. BCP will provide additional
temporary workspace for MIS. employees until transition
completion, at which time the workforce will occupy the vacated
locations of the outgoing workforce.
For this transition, knowledge transfer will occur over the entirety of the
60-day transition period. The knowledge transfer will take place via
various methods. The incumbent PM will coordinate two formal
classroom training sessions to be conducted by the incumbent IT
Transition Lead. These sessions will focus on the specific IT concerns
related to the database tasks and activities. The incumbent PM will also
coordinate two formal classroom sessions to be conducted by the
incumbent Configuration Manager. These sessions will cover
documentation requirements and organizational processes and assets.
These sessions will be completed no later than 15 days prior to the end of
the 60-day transition period. Additionally, all MIS staff will be
counterparts throughout the 60-day period in order to gain familiarity with
the database, tools, processes, and organizational assets. The PM from
MIS, and the customer will meet no later than 10 days prior to transition
completion in order to determine if any further training or knowledge
transfer is required.
The BCP will make the determination of when transition is completed and
will provide formal acceptance indicating such. To do this, the customer’s
transition PM will utilize the established transition checklist in order to
determine that all activities associated with the transition have been
completed. The BCP transition PM will also meet with the transition PM
from MIS to ensure that all concerns and issues have been met and
addressed appropriately. Once the BCP transition PM has formally
accepted the transition, the checklist and supporting documentation will
be signed and accepted by the customer’s project sponsor and the
company’s human resources director. The last step is the formal
acceptance and signature of the customer’s contracting officer
representative. It is only after all of these approvals and signatures are in
place that the transition will be considered complete.
