Monash University FIT5057 Project: IT Waste Management System Report

This project report details the development of an IT waste management system for supermarkets, addressing challenges like air and water pollution caused by organic waste. The report encompasses stakeholder analysis to identify key stakeholders and their interests, a scope management plan to define project activities, time and cost management plans for scheduling and budgeting, and a risk management plan to mitigate potential risks. It highlights the importance and benefits of the waste management system, including its role in recycling and reducing waste, and employs a software development lifecycle model to guide the development process. The project, spanning from September 2019 to April 2020, aims to create a sustainable solution for managing organic waste within supermarkets, contributing to environmental health and promoting a waste-free environment. The report includes key deliverables such as a project charter, proof of concept, stakeholder analysis, scope management plan, schedule baseline, network diagram, cost management plan, and risk management plan. The project's objectives include proposing a waste management system, improving environmental health, implementing a lean software lifecycle, and converting waste materials into new materials to lower greenhouse gas emissions. The project also identifies potential risks, such as scope creep and budget overruns, and outlines the roles and responsibilities of the project team members.
