PRJ701: IOT Healthcare Mobile App Project Proposal NMIT, 2018

This document presents a project proposal for the development of an IOT-based healthcare mobile application. The project aims to create a mobile application that simplifies healthcare functions for both patients and doctors, improving existing services through technological innovation. Key aspects covered in the proposal include project goals, background, functions (divided into initial, planning, design, execution, and closure phases), required skills, anticipated outcomes, application features (patient, doctor, and staff records, payment information, wireless connectivity, and doctor feedback), necessary resources, potential limitations (time, budget, quality), a detailed timeline, ethical considerations, and a statement of ownership. The proposal outlines a structured approach to project execution using IT project management principles, emphasizing the use of work packages and resource allocation to ensure successful completion within the estimated time and budget. The document also includes a work breakdown structure, a time-phased budget, and a Gantt chart illustrating the project schedule. The project is designed to enhance healthcare service delivery and accessibility through a user-friendly mobile application.

Project Title
The title of the project is
‘Formation of IOT based Healthcare Mobile Application’.
Preferred Choice of Supervisor
<<please_fill>>
Fundamental Project Goal
The goals of the ‘Formation of IOT based Healthcare Mobile Application’ project are,
Formation of Mobile Application: The mobile application was developed for easing the
functions of the organization. The ‘Formation of IOT based Healthcare Mobile Application’
project would result in forming the mobile application supporting the healthcare facilities to the
patients and doctors.
Support for Improvement of the functions: The existing functions was improved using
the technology innovation and faster delivery of the services. The improvement of the
technology for easing the supportive functions was a major benefit from the organization.
Completion of the project: The successful completion of the project was based on the
support and formation implying the IT formation functions. The improvement of the project was
based on the simplification of the functions so that the mobile application was developed in the
estimated time and budget.

3PROJECT PROPOSAL
Background
The project of ‘Formation of IOT based Healthcare Mobile Application’ is developed
aligning the simplification of the functions. The project was based on the use of the IT project
formation. The IT project management principles were executed for forming the mobile
application. The mobile application was developed for easing the functions of the organization.
The improvement of the technology for easing the supportive functions was a major benefit from
the organization.
Project Functions
The project of ‘Formation of IOT based Healthcare Mobile Application’ is developed for
easing the formation and formation of the functions favourable for the formation and installation
of the healthcare application was helpful for easing the simplification of the factors defining the
processes of the functions. The support and formation using the formation of effective and smart
improvement methods was successively deployed using specific work packages. The following
diagram would show the work packages required for the execution of the project,

Figure 1: Work Breakdown Structure
The project functions was divided into the five phases of initial phase, planning phase,
design phase, execution phase, and closure phase. These phases was completed successfully for
developing the final project execution. The explanation of the phases is shown below,
Initial Phase: The initial phase of the project was based on the initialization of the
project functions and defining of the successful formation. The initial phase would comprise of
identification of requirements, making list of resources required, accumulation of resources,
charter documentation, and kick off. In this phase the functions of the project was initiated by the
use of the resource identification and the formation of the initiation documents.
Plan Formation Phase: The planning phase would comprise of developing the
successful activity scheduling and forming the simplification of the project functions. The plan
formation was implied for easing the utilization of the formation process. It would include
outline of the plan, review of plan, complete plan formation, and plan approval. The plan

formation phase was formed for easing the simplification of the functions defining the support
and formation management.
Design Phase: The design phase would involve the formation of the effective design and
formation of the successful utilization process. The design of the application was designed in this
phase making is suitable to develop the IOT based healthcare mobile application as the final
deliverable. The design phase would include the following functions interface design is
developed, complete design is formed, design simulation, and design approved.
Execution: The execution phase is developed forming the improvement of the improved
operation formation for ensuring that the project would result in forming the completion of the
IOT based healthcare mobile application. The phase would involve the functions of interface is
formed, functions are aligned, programming is done, functions are defined, system is developed,
and system approved.
Closure: The closure is the final phase of the project and it would involve the functions
of the final documents are made, inspection of the system, sign off, and project closed. It is the
end point of the project functions.
