 Question Statement

Scope Management:
In project management, scope is the defined features and functions of a
product, or the scope of work needed to finish a project. Scope involves getting information required to
start a project, including the features the product needs to meet its stakeholders' requirements.

Importance:
Project scope helps to distinguish what is and is not involved in the project and
controls what is allowed or removed as it is executed. Scope management establishes control factors,
that can be used to address elements that result in changes during the lifecycle of the project.

WBS:
A work-breakdown structure in project management and systems engineering is a deliverable-
oriented breakdown of a project into smaller components. A work breakdown structure is a key project
deliverable that organizes the team's work into manageable sections.

Parts:
The inputs of the WBS consist of the project management plan, the project documents,
enterprise environmental factors, organizational process assets, etc. The tools and techniques may
include the decision-making, decomposition of project deliverables, etc.

Schedule Management:
It is a document that details how a project's schedule will be created,
managed, and monitored. Typically, a schedule management plan includes information about the
scheduling methodology that will guide the project and any relevant information about scheduling tools
or processes.

Activity Diagram:
An activity diagram is a behavioral diagram i.e., it depicts the behavior of a
system. An activity diagram portrays the control flow from a start point to a finish point showing the
various decision paths that exist while the activity is being executed. They illustrate what happens in
workflow, what activities can be done in parallel and whether there are alternative paths through the
workflow.

R – Resources in our project the resource is the number of individuals who are
performing any activity.
C – Cost to perform any activity in our project and we defined all cost in terms of
Thousands which were used for our project.
Gantt Chart:
A Gantt chart is a project management tool assisting in the planning and scheduling
of projects of all sizes, although they are particularly useful for simplifying complex projects. It is a type
of bar chart that illustrates a project schedule, named after its popularizer, Henry Gantt, who designed
such a chart around the years 1910–1915.

Advantages:
A Gantt chart gives managers and workers a high-level overview of the project tasks
they must complete, along with a timetable to finish their work. The chart helps you monitor the project's
progress by showing how tasks relate to each other.

 It Provides a High-Level Overview:

A Gantt chart provides an overall perspective of a project

and its timeline — for both those who are deeply involved and those with less participation, such
as executives and other stakeholders.

A Gantt chart is visually appealing and easy to understand. It provides critical information about
tasks at a glance, including the order in which they begin and their duration.
 It Improves Efficiency and Helps Manage Resources:

A Gantt chart can help ensure that

leaders and workers manage their time and resources effectively. Project leaders can use it to set
realistic schedules and allocate resources based on those schedules, including assigning the right
people to the right tasks. It can also help project members come up with workarounds for
potential problems before a project starts.

 It Allows for Better Tracking:

A Gantt chart enables project leaders and members to closely

track tasks, benchmarks, and overall workflow. The chart can reveal possible constraints or
issues and allow project leaders and members to adjust accordingly.

 It Motivates Team Members:

A Gantt chart enables team members to visualize their tasks,

thereby motivating them to do their work on the project. Team members can view the project
moving forward and watch other members completing their tasks. The chart also shows how
certain tasks can’t begin until another task is completed. All that visibility enables people to
complete their tasks well and on time.

 It Helps You Set Realistic Deadlines and Expectations:

A Gantt chart lays out all the tasks

that a team must accomplish in order to complete a project. The chart also illustrates the
relationships and dependencies among those tasks. Such coherent visual communication allows
for a realistic view of the time it takes to complete the work. Consequently, having access to such
accurate information allows you to set realistic deadlines for each task and for the entire project.
