ICT Project Management: Analysis of Globex's MBFSA Application Project

This project management report details the development of a mobile-based farming application for Globex Corporation. The report begins with an introduction and project description, followed by an analysis of the Measurable Organizational Value (MOV), defining the project's impact, stakeholders, timeframe, and overall value. The scope of the project is then defined, including requirements, in-scope and out-of-scope elements, and resource allocation. A Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is presented, outlining project milestones, activities, resources, and time estimations. The report also addresses risk planning and analysis, identifying potential risks and proposing management strategies. A quality management plan is included, detailing the team's philosophy and methods for ensuring quality. Finally, the report concludes with project closure and evaluation, including an annotated bibliography and a checklist for project completion.

Introduction
The report below describes the case study of Globex Corporation who is in charge to
make the mobile based farming application. This report states measurable organization value for
the application that is to be built while developing the system. This project also states the project
scope that will be used for developing the application software. There is also a WBS that states
the work breakdown structure of developing the project and risk framework is also identified that
might occur while project development. This report also contains a project evaluation and project
closure phase related with the project.
Project Description
The Globex Corporation is a company that is famous for its excellence and provides help
to the farmers to increase their production and their working efficiency. The application that is
being developed in this project will include technologies that will provide commercial solutions
to all farmers using the application. This project mainly aims to provide an application so that
they can make easy decisions and can handle the problem related to growing of crops.
Part One: MOV (Measurable Organizational Value)
1. Impact Area of Given case Study:
Operational: The application of Globex built will have accuracy related to the
functionality of the application and also includes high operational value.
Strategy: The strategy of the mobile based application is to manage all the farmers who
are associated with the system. The application will also help to monitor the farmers.

4ICT PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Customer: The customers associated with the system are the farmers and the owner of
Globex will not be affected from the system.
Social: Mobile based application of Globex Corporation will help the organization to
efficiently manage all the operations related to farming.
Financial: The system of the MBFSA will help the organization to earn profit.

Part Two: Defining Scope
1. Defining Scope and Producing Scope Management Plan:
1.1 Requirements of projects
The requirement of the project includes that the project should be cost efficient, and
should maintain the time frame of the project. The project should have high performance value
and should be functional.
1.2 In scope and project out Scope
In scope of project is
 Developing the system within in the budget scheduled.
 Should be able the manage the team members of the project
 Should be able to farmers associated.
Project out scope
 Training should be provided to the employees of Globex for handling the system.
 Install the application system
2. Management of Scope:
All the activities should be followed so that the project can be competed in the give time
frame.
