Project Life Cycle (PLC)
Introduction
The report is prepared for the Binnj project for which a LiveMenu application is being
prepared. The report covers the details of the Project Life Cycle (PLC) stages along with the
project management approach used in the project. The evaluation of the project decisions and
the leadership traits along with the details of performance measurement are included in the
report.
Stages of Project Life Cycle (PLC)
There are usually four stages in the Project Life Cycle (PLC) viz. Initiation, Planning,
Execution, and Closure. The first stage is the initiation stage in which the identification of the
business problem and business needs is done. It is the stage in which the project goals and
objectives are defined and the major project deliverables are also listed down. A high-level
analysis of the project estimations and the project requirements is done in this stage. The
documentation needed for this stage is the business case for the project and the initial meeting
notes with the client. There is a feasibility report and a project charter/brief prepared as an
outcome. The project feasibility project and cost-benefit analysis is usually done in this stage
to determine the doability and the project value. The second stage is the planning stage in
which the detailed planning of the project areas, such as scope, resources, risks,
communication, schedule, budget, stakeholders, and quality is done (Dalcher, 2015). The
documentation required for this stage includes project charter/brief, business case, and
statement of work. On the basis of all of these documents, project estimations are made and
the project plan is prepared as an outcome. The plan comprises of the project methodology to
be followed along with the details of the project estimations. The third stage is the execution
stage in which the plans are turned in to actions. The project requirements and project plan
are the primary documents that are needed to carry out the stage to produce working sets of
the product/system to be delivered. The last stage is the closure stage in which the final
product is needed along with the documents from all the three stages. The status reports and
the meeting notes are required to develop the performance evaluation reports and the final
closure report.
Binnj Project & PLC Documentation Requirements
Binnj project did meet the above requirements as the execution of the project was done using
agile methodology for project management. Clay Hutcherson headed the project and there
