3. REQUIREMENTS MANAGEMENT (5 MARKS)
3.1 Traditional Owner/s of the land on which CQ University campuses are located (1 mark).
Describe which approach is most appropriate and provide a brief explanation justifying your answer.
It is found that the representation of various campus of the CQU university by a single specific
owner is not considered to be appropriate. This is generally due to the fact that it is quite difficult for a
single stakeholder to represent the different other campuses of the CQU university at a time. If a
stakeholder is asked to visit all the campus of the university then if one single individual is the owner then it
will be quite difficult to visit all the campus at a time for collecting proper information. Therefore, it is
identified that there is a need to have more than one key stakeholder who will generally take the
responsibility of representing the owners of the land in which the campuses are generally located.

3.2. Opening statement style (1 mark)

is appropriate for the campus leaders to use at the naming ceremonies. Please provide a brief
explanation justifying your answer.

acknowledgement as the residents will generally love to hear “Welcome to country” as it can be one of the
opening statement that can be used for both the people who are outside from the country.

Yes, it is identified that the suggestion which is given about using the documents from the project
that is used earlier to recognizing the Vietnamese community is considered to be appropriate as with the
help of the documents, the designer will generally get proper idea about how to represent the indigenous
community. The idea that are gained from the earlier projects are helpful in designing the plaques as well as
for constructing and designing the signage.
3.4 Requirements traceability (.5 mark)
What document is used to track or ‘trace’ requirements throughout the project life cycle?
It is identified that the central resource log can be used for tracking and updating the project
related requirements. This document is mainly used within the project lifecycle as the central log is mainly
used within the cloud and thus it should be updated by the site manager when the project resources are
used properly.

9 LESSONS (2 MARKS)
Previous lessons learned Proposed action to address
(in current project)
Lesson 1
The first lesson involved problems with an
overseas supplier, with a web-based presence
only, which produced budget signage. The
supplier failed to deliver agreed goods, went
bankrupt and subsequently vanished, with the
clients’ deposit.
It is very much important to make proper plan
before supplying the goods as well as materials
so that the suppliers can be able to deliver the
goods within the money that is deposited by
the client.
Lesson 2:
The second lesson involved the use of a generic
package which failed to properly address the
nuances which exists between different
indigenous groups located in various
geographical areas.
It is quite important to communicate with the
indigenous people in order to gather any type
of information that is associated with the
project.
