Part 1: MOV
1.1. Overview and description of the project
The significant aim of the Globex Corporation is to reduce the cost required and time
required for farming while increasing the efficiency. Globex targets at utilizing the technological
innovation and devices to help the farmers in the Riverina region. Globex co-operation has
appointed Virtucon industries for the implementation of a Mobile Application for supporting the
farmers. The requested application will be able to provide the farmers with various information
regarding the crops to produce, the quantity to provide each season to maximize the production
and profit.
This report aims at identifying the aims, objectives, scope, stakeholders involved and the
process that are considered by the Virtucon Team for the development of the mobile application.
1.2. Identify the desired area of impact
Social: MBFSA will help the Riverina farmers and the wholesaler to get connected in
easy and effective manner.
Operational: The MBFSA will be able to increase the efficiency of Riverina farming by
helping the farmers in their decision making and everyday planning of planning crops.
Customer: The wholesaler markets will be able to identify the specific farmers growing
the specific crops at a particular season. The famers will be able to evaluate the needs to the
customers and plan the crop cultivation through the application.

Part 2: Scope Management Plan
2.1. Scope Management Plan
2.1.1. What is Scope
Defining the scope in an project is considered as one of the integral part of managing the
project. In formal term, project scope is a written documents that helps the project team and other
stakeholders associated with the project to understand and mention the specifications or
functionalities that will be covered within the undertaken project. A project scope documents
usually includes the areas which will be covered as in-scope and the areas which will specifically
not be delivered as out-of-scope.
2.1.2. In Scope and Out of Scope and In-scope of MBFSA
Project In-Scope:
To develop the prototype model within two months;
To provide training to the farmers for using the application;
To ensure all the functionalities are met as mentioned by Globex;
To ensure the completion and launch of the MBFSA application within 6 months;
Project Out-Scope:
Installation of the MBFSA application on individual phone;
To ensure the mobile phone availability for the farmers;
To provide training to the wholesalers;

MBFSA
2.2.3. Process for Scope Management/Verification
Effective management and ensuring that all the scope has been met within the final
project requires several processes and continuous monitoring. The process includes developing
detailed WBS ensuring all the scope elements have been included. Further proper inspection and
review needs to be done on weekly basis to keep track on the project. In case of any change or
modification, the change needs to be well documented and approved before implementation
within the project.

Reference: Joslin, R., & Müller, R. (2015). Relationships between a project management
methodology and project success in different project governance contexts. International Journal
of Project Management, 33(6), 1377-1392.
In this particular article the researcher have focused in identifying the interlaying relation
that exists between selecting an appropriate methods of project development with its success.
The most effective and standard criteria that are being used widely for determining the project
success or failure are quality, cost and time. However, in this article the researcher argued and
claimed that project governance along with the selection of appropriate project methods helps in
determining the project success to significant level. The researcher has utilized primary data and
questionnaire for gathering the data and the experience of various projects’ success and work
experience for conducting the analysis. In addition to that, the article has extensive use of
Regression and ANOVA analysis to prove the hypothesis set. Further with the application of the
correlation matrix, the researchers were able to prove the positive relation between project
success and its dependency on the selection of the standard and appropriate project methods.

1.2. Article 2: Project management and its effects on project success: Cross-country and
cross-industry comparisons
Reference: de Carvalho, M. M., Patah, L. A., & de Souza Bido, D. (2015). Project management
and its effects on project success: Cross-country and cross-industry comparisons. International
Journal of Project Management, 33(7), 1509-1522.
In this study the researcher aims at investigating the impact of effective procedures of project
management technique for determining the success of the project while considering the margin,
schedule and cost allocation. From ages, the success of project has been identified and based on
several parameters that are predefined during the project implementation. Here the researcher has
argued and highlighted the significant impact the complexity of project, the industry and the
country has on the several variables within the project. The hypothesis defined by the researcher
proves that these factors have direct impact over the margin variation, cost and schedule
developed for any project. Further, the researcher has used bivariate analysis, descriptive statics
and frequency distribution for testing the hypothesis set. The country and national environment
where the project sets at plays an significant factor in determining the project success.

1.3. Article 3: The impact of project management (PM) and benefits management (BM)
practices on project success: Towards developing a project benefits governance framework
Reference: Badewi, A. (2016). The impact of project management (PM) and benefits
management (BM) practices on project success: Towards developing a project benefits
governance framework. International Journal of Project Management, 34(4), 761-778.
During the early development of any project, the main area of concern were the cost and
the time associated with the completion of the project. But with the development of various
standard techniques in project management along with several researches and studies, other
significant parameters including the strategic goals, customer satisfaction and performance were
taken into consideration. In this particular paper, the authors shed lights on the inter-relation
between the project management process and the benefit management in order to achieve
considerable success within a project. Regression and structural equation modeling was used for
determining the dependency concept within the project. The student showed that maintaining
correlation between the benefit management and project management was able to provide high
level of success within project.
