E-COMMERCE WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT PLAN3
1. Introduction
Given the current business structure in the latest times, it is extremely important that
an organization understands the requirement of the changes that can be imbibed in the
business structures with the technological advancements. It is extremely important that a
business is up to date about the technological advancements that has been made in the recent
times and for this particular reasons they need to develop strategies and systems for the same
adaptations. In the same way, it has been found that the organizations in the recent times have
been adapting to the e-commerce technology and have been utilizing the involvement of the
same in the business systems. These also include the inclusion of the project that helps in the
development of the ecommerce websites for the organizations. An organization may think
about implementing the e-commerce websites for facilitating both its customers and clients.
Having a website enables an organization to be available to their customers at any point of
time and provide the necessary services to them. However, the development phase of the e-
commerce websites would require a proper planning from the perspective of project
management that would be ensure the proper development of the website and all the
precursors required for the developmental phase.
For this, it is essential that the development of the e-commerce website is dependent
upon a proper Project Development Plan or PMP and the Software Requirement Specification
or SRS. Therefore, following would be the detailed PMP and SRS plan that would monitor
the project plan, providing clear guidelines for the development of the overall project. The
requirement analysis of the overall report for the website development would be conducted in
due course of the development plan consisting of the requirement analysis of the entire
process model required for the development of the project plan. This would follow the
SCRUM features for the procedure and would be represented in User Story Form. Thus, the

next sections would hold the requirements of the entire project plan for the development of
the website.
1.1 Project Overview
The ecommerce development has seen a sea change in the recent times and this
change has increased exponentially in the past few years even including the problems and
issues that it has faced. It is expected that the trend will continue to influence the society and
the business organizations as well. The return on investments that organizations enjoy in the
recent times are reasons why the entrepreneurs and other business owners are looking
forward to implement these. However, it is identified that before the implementation of these
techniques and tools, it is essential that the organizations also understand the requirement of a
primary project plan that would be followed step by step to begin the development of the
website.
The aim of this particular project is to formulate a successful Project Management
Plan or PMP and Software Requirement Specification and SRS documentation for the
website development project. Through the documentations, the project would aim at the
presentation of the detailed management of the project along with the detailed requirements
of the software that is needed for the development of the website. The detailed project would
be understood to specify the proper implementation of the project according to the specified
plan.
1.2 Project Deliverables: SPMP, SRS
The project needs to be presented in the form of two detailed documents. One would
constitute an SPMP and the other would be the SRS documentation. The following would be
description of the project deliverables that would be conducted through the deliverables of

E-COMMERCE WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT PLAN5
the Software Project Management Plan and the Software Requirement Specification
documentation:
SPMP document: The project development plan for the website development would
hold the specific details about the project. This would provide the information about the
specific details of the product that depends on the specifications and explains the entire
structure of the project that would specify what the project would perform at every stage. It
would include the Project Charter that would include the specifications of the entire project
continuing with the detailed information about the project team, the list of the stakeholders,
the Project scope statements, the project milestones, the risks and risk ratings, the project
constraints, the external dependencies of the project and the communication strategies. Along
with the project charter, the SPMP document would also have the project schedule and the
risk management plan.
SRS Document: The SRS document or the Software Requirement document would
hold the entire specification of the software in a detailed manner. This would include the
details of the analysis of the development of the website as per the requirements of the
development procedure. This would include the user requirement phases, the system
requirements, the domain requirements, the functional and non-functional requirements and
the mock-up website screens.
1.3 Reference Materials
The reference materials that would be presented in this regard would include the
references that have been gone through for the development of the website based on the
specifications required to develop the same. This would be provided at the end of the
document.
