store that will use used by both the Android mobile users and the iOS mobile users.
The project included is development of a software that is to be done for the shopping
store. The store is small organization that is to be expanded all over Australia. This project will
include the design phase, the development phase and the deployment phase for developing the
mobile application. The application will be made public and will be used by the customers all
over Australia for shopping with them. The system will be maintained by the system
organization and the stakeholders of the shopping site. This system will help the organization to
manage the relation of the customers and streamline the operations of the business. The system
management and the data management also becomes easier after implementing the system. The
software development lifecycle is to be covered in this project that includes planning,
requirement analysis, and development phase, testing phase and deployment phase,
implementation phase and the closure phase.

Project Benefits
The benefit of the project is to schedule all the deliverables that are to be included for
developing the mobile application for the shopping store in Australia. By this project, the project
manager can complete the project successfully.
Project Team
The project team should have capabilities of handling the technical part of developing the
android application and should also have knowledge of handling the project with project
management implementation.
Initial Risk Identification
The risks that can occur while handling this project are stated below:

6PROJECT MANAGEMENT
1. Fails to understand the requirements of the project- If the requirements of the project are not
clear, the application will end up that might not be liked by the project stakeholders.
2. Increase in Time and Budget: There might be a risk of increasing the time of the project that is
scheduled and the accordingly the project budget will also increase.
3. Shortage of Resource: The resources that are needed for establishing the project are the main
factors of a project. There might be a shortage of resource while establishing a project.
4. Changing the Design: If the system developer changes the design of the application that
undertaken, the project time might increase. This might lead to increase in project budget.
Estimated Outcomes
The outcomes of this project will end up in completing the project and implementing the
mobile application for the shopping store in Australia. The store will be able to conduct business
all over Australia and might also expand its business all over the world. The business scope of
the store will increase and the project manager will be successful in completing the project.
