1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
1.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee (NAIDOC) was celebrated with
students and staff to surge the awareness of Torres and Aboriginal strait islander people. The SET
(School of Engineering and Technology) is an indigenisation committee which is interested in
projects which will help in providing prospects for cultural and respectful collaboration and
engagement with people of Torres Strait Islander. Also, improvise student and staff understanding
and awareness of indigenous Australian culture and perspectives. The SET has requested for a
project so that they can host and celebrate occasions of NAIDOC week at many campuses of
CQUniversity. The NAIDOC week celebration theme is ‘Because of her, we can!’ from 8-15 July.
This theme will celebrate the role of the women been played and endure to play a significant and
active as the community, national, state and local role models. This event will help out in building
connections with local communities of Aboriginal. It is required to make a project plan which
reflects the described project and aligns with Prince2 and PMBoK requirements.
1.2 JUSTIFICATION

location so that business results can be achieved in accordance with the expectations. The built of
the product is actually the customer business requirements which have been translated into an
application. The products can be indirect or direct, subjective or objective, intangible or tangible
but definitely, is clearly desired and visible (Khanduja, 2014). Project outcome is the changes in
result derived from the usage of the project’s specialist production by the users. The results
typically began to be attained after the project’s specialist merchandises to users. Project Benefit
is the measurable improvement which comes from the result and if the outcome is taken as a
disadvantage when it is termed as dis-benefit. The benefit comes from the results and should start
being achieved for the planned time span in future. Prince2 states the particular plan being
established describing the times and methods to validate the accomplishment of the anticipated
benefits (Passera, 2013).
