is least bothered by the social aspects as the project only forms an
information system for the ticketing process of Riverina Agriculture
and Lifestyle Show
5th
a. Better- The project of development and installation of RALS ticketing system would comprise
of improving the process of faster data and information management with the help of the new
system developed
b. Faster- The information sharing via the system developed would be faster and it would also
comprise of providing the remote access to the main data storage for the users with authentic
access
c. Cheaper- Ticket generation for the Riverina Agriculture and Lifestyle Show would be cheap as
the manual management of the operations would consume a number of resources while on the
other hand the system would do all these cohesively
d. Do more- The project of development and installation of RALS ticketing system would get the
benefit of forming improved ground with the available information for future projects

Annotated Bibliography: The study by Menzies (2014) has helped in developing a complete
understanding of the simple projects for software development. The software development

9PROJECT MANAGEMENT
projects play a crucial role for developing appropriate products and services for the project plan.
The SDLC approach is used for the software development projects that involve the development
of an information system. Conforto et al. (2014) have provided a deep study of agile software
development projects and critically evaluate whether the method should be implied by any other
projects. The Agile methodology is widely used for software development projects. However,
the approach can be implied for construction projects as well. According to Tan et al. (2014), the
estimation of the project durations is very crucial and it forms an impact on the completion of the
project operations. The project development comprise of using scheduling methods for ensuring
that the project is achieved successfully.
