Introduction
Background and Rationale
The project plan aims in providing the readers with a detailed information regarding the
scheduling needs of development of a Fitness application. The report provide the details of the
network diagram, milestone and the resources assigned. It is quite crucial to understand
requirement of the project to set up the budget of the project in an accurate manner. The major
milestone of the project. The potential project risks and significant issues are discussed in an
effective manner. Development of the project plan aims in overseeing of all the critical tasks and
the milestone of this project. The plan provides the detail of the time estimated for finishing the
project, along with the effort needed to execute the project in a set time. The project plan further
provides an idea of the Gantt chart and the network diagram prepared for project. The probability
impact matric that is prepared as a part of the project plan provides a description of the risks that
are required to be addressed in the project.

1. Gantt chart
The figure 1 depicts the Gantt chart of the undertaken project. The figure provides the
detailed work breakdown structure as well. The column named “WBS” indicate the work
breakdown structure and the “Task Name” indicate the task to be executed for completion of the
project on a scheduled time (Kerzner and Kerzner 2017). The Gantt chart corresponding to the
development of a fitness application are as follows-

The tasks which are to be executed as a part of the project is indicated in the Gantt chart.
It is observed that the entire project of development of the fitness application will take four
months. Figure 1 indicates that there are 7 major phases that are needed to be completed for
successful execution of the project. It is observed that a maximum time is allocated for the
development phase. The project will be successfully completed only if all the tasks are
completed within the scheduled deadline. The column “milestone” indicate whether a particular
activity is a milestone or not (Meredith et al., 2017). The Gantt chart indicate that the project has
7 major milestone including the last milestone, which is the “Project End”. The critical tasks of
the project are indicated in red. All the tasks marked in red indicate the project’s critical task.
2. Network Diagram
The figure 2, indicates the network diagram of the fitness application development
project. The network diagram is prepared, provide a critical view of the tasks which are to be
executed as a part of project execution phase. The network diagram of the Fitness app
development project, is depicted as follows-

3. Milestone
Milestone of a project generally signifies the critical tasks that are to be executed as a part
of project implementation. The milestone for this fitness development project is identifies on
basis of SMART criteria. With the help of the SMART criteria, the key events of the
development of the fitness app project is identified on basis of the criteria, which include,
specific, measurable, attainable and relevant to the project (Fleming and Koppelman 2016). The
milestone that are indicated in the table below are specific to the project undertaken, it is
attainable, measurable and is definitely relevant to the project undertaken. The project milestone
are shown as follows-

app development project has been finished in a successful manner. The table further indicates the
date of achievement of the milestone and the person who was responsible for achieving the
milestone.
4. Resources Table
Appropriate estimate and calculation of the resources needed for the project was
necessary in order to ensure that the fitness app development project is executed accordingly. For
ensuring that the fitness application is developed in effective way, the most essential resources
needed for the project is estimated and is allocated to each of the task (Heagney 2016). The
project cost is analyzed on basis of the resources and the cost of each resources. The resources
