Project team 2.2 Obtaining expert judgement (1 mark) QUESTION: Briefly explain at least two different methods or techniques to obtain this expert
judgement from groups and/or individuals? Obtaining expert judgement is necessary in this project, as this training project is a new venture for the university. The two methods of obtaining expert judgement for the project are as follows- 1. Setting up an interview session with the experts after collecting the requirements on which the expert judgement is needed, such as the need of stakeholder management plan and so on. This might include a face to face interview session that will incorporate a discussion on the different project needs and scope of the project. 2. An online survey questionnaire can be prepared incorporating the problems on which expert judgement is required. A group of experts can participate in the survey. The results collected can be evaluated for a proper decision-making process and selection of a proper stakeholder management plan. 3REQUIREMENTS MANAGEMENT (5 MARKS)3.1.1Traditional Owner/s of the land on which CQ University campuses are located (1mark).QUESTION:State whether it is appropriate to have a single key stakeholder representing the Traditional Owners of the land on which Central Queensland Campuses are located. Provide an explanation for your response.It is not appropriate to have a single key stakeholder for representing all the traditional owners of the land on which the Central Queensland Campuses are located, as it will be difficult for a single stakeholder to track and manage the requirements of all the campuses at a time. 3.1.2Opening statement style (1 mark) QUESTION: Which of the two opening statement styles‘Welcome to Country’ or ‘Acknowledgementof Country’ is appropriate for the Project Executive to use and provide a brief explanation justifying your answer.The statement ‘Welcome to Country’ will be appropriate as an opening sentence for the cultural awareness program. This is because the project aims at generating awareness among the students and staffs of CQ University. The training program will incorporate the history, culture languages and protocols of local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island and therefore, ‘Welcome to Country’ will be appropriate opening statement. 3.1.3Requirements gathering for training package (1 mark) QUESTION: Is the suggestion of using a previously developed cultural awareness training programan appropriate method of requirements gathering? Briefly explain your answer. No, the suggestion of using a previously developed Muslim cultural awareness-training program forthis project cannot be used in this project. This is a new venture for the University and completely different from the Muslim cultural awareness training program. Therefore modifying the content of that training program will not be of any help for this project. Apart from the desktop research, it is essential to meet the local Aboriginal Community to collect necessary information about the contents of the training program. With the gathered information, the content of the training would be custom designed. This process although will take a longer time for project implementation, it will increase the possibility of project success by many folds. 3.1.4Requirements traceability (.5 mark)
