Project scope

Project risk
Project risk can be defining as either positive or negative outcome which can happen
regarding a project. There could be several risk associated with launching a new app:
 Not as per target user requirement- Sometimes it is happening that target audience does
not like the new application launched by company. May be the user don't like the interface
of new application or may be the company did not make proper market research before
launching product as per requirement of customer. Hence this would be consider as risk
that targeted audience does not like the application (Zwikael, Chih, and Meredith 2018).
 Adding too many features in one single application- Sometimes companies in order to
make their application popular add to many features into one single product which
sometimes make application very difficult to use by end user. Moreover, device of end
users sometimes don't support the application which make device very slow in terms of
working. Hence, this would be considering as another risk while launching a product.
 Don't update your application time to time basis- Sometimes company's think that
making an application and sell them in market makes this process end here. NO,
companies have to make time to time changes and make give an update in their
application. Companies have to make time to time changes in their product in order to
keep product innovative and engage customer to use an application for longer duration of
time.
 Risk of hacking data- Sometimes after using companies’ application user data got hacked,
which passes users crucial information to hacker database by which later hacker blackmail
customer to dupe them. Hence, companies have to make proper security code in their
application to protect customer data.

Project success
Project success is defining as a level of efficiency the project reach at its final stage. In other
words, the project which completed at lower cost than expected that is considered as project
success. The success of project can be measured upon different parameters are (Anantatmula and
Rad, 2018):
 Retention rate- This is defined as retention or sickness does customer have
towards companies’ application. In simple words, this defines as how much time a
customer spends in a day to use companies’ application. According to some
reports, if a customer spends 30 mins daily on an application that application is
considered successful in market.
 Average revenue per user(ARPU)- This is defined as how much a company
earning when one customer is using companies’ application. According to some
reports, if a company revenue is exceeding 30% of its cost incur while developing
an application then that application is successful otherwise that product is
considered failure in market.
 Daily active user(DAU)- This is defined as how much daily user does an
application of company have. In order to be successful, it is necessary that daily
average user of application cross 10 million in order to make that application
successful in market otherwise that application will considered fail.
 Session length- Session length is defining as how much time a particular customer
spends on your application. Longer the time make an application more successful.
