BN205 Trimester 2, 2017 Project: Secured Network System

This project report outlines the development of a secured network system for educational institutes, addressing the increasing complexity of online study materials, assignments, and student records. The project includes a detailed planning document, project sign-off format, and recommendations for future projects. The report covers project goals, objectives, functional and non-functional requirements, team roles, a comprehensive project plan including scope, duration, and resources, and utilizes MS Project for Gantt charts, WBS, and resource allocation. It also includes cost estimates, a quality plan, stakeholder analysis, communications plan, risk management plan, and deployment plan, culminating in project handover and post-project review recommendations. Appendices include Gantt charts, resource assignments, resource deployment plans, and a risk matrix. The project aims to provide a secured network for stakeholders to exchange important data.

Executive Summary
The systems of Educational Institutes have become more and more complex now a days. All the study
materials, assignments, their evaluations and student’s record are being maintained online. Moreover,
the online payment facility through portals, online admission procedures and many more such facilities
are required to be provided to the customers, professors, existing students and probable students. For
providing such facilities, in this report we shall discuss the planning documentation for developing a
secured network system for the educational institute.
In this report we shall develop planning document along with the project sign-off format and
recommendations for such future projects.

Introduction
For building up a system for the educational institute by utilizing which every one of the staffs and
students might play out their essential needs of the establishment like getting study material, getting to
e-library and doing installment for the semester, the teacher should disperse the investigation things,
course destinations and access the appropriate response sheets submitted on the web or directly time
bound online test to get to the student's ability to remain in some basic condition and create them
completely to face the difficulties of expert world. So to provide such a significant number of offices and
in the meantime keep up the abnormal state security with the goal that no one can break the security
level and access other's information or data, an exceedingly secured organize framework is required to
be produced. For this report development we shall use the planning software MS Project extensively, so
that all the graphs, WBS and Resource charts are being developed from the software itself.
Project Planning Document
Project Title
Secured Network System for Educational Institutes
Dates
Start Date: October 9, 2017 End Date: April 23, 2018
Project Goal
The goal or aim of the project is to develop and implement a secured network system for the

developed in a most professional manner.
Project requirements
Functional
Accessible Notwithstanding empower the professors and students to do their work from
their choice of land, a move in the system at whatever point required must be
open.
Consistency of
setups
The associations must be arranged by its diagram and once it is through, the
structure need to store them so that these can be picked at whatever point it is

required.
Oversee
database
The immense database must be sensible by the structure to store and offer
vast volume designing reports.
Online Notice the automated system must be adequately fit to send the consequent notices
isolated by the pre-set criteria and the logbook of appraisal accommodation.
Validation While selecting itself, the mystery key may be made a demand to put, and
from every future use the structure will keep asking for that customers enter
which may result in putting the set watchword in a manner of speaking. This id
is required to keep any pariah to enter the system.
Enrollment Professors and students must be asked for the selection with the structure for
getting the passage in to the framework.
Non-Functional
Secured mass of
insurance
The system must give itself a strong divider to keep it far away from
any kind of ambush.
Access through all
equipment frameworks
The system must be open from any equipment and working
structures.
Easy to understands
framework

Resources for the Project
Resource Name Type Initials Max. Units
Project Manager Work PM 100%
System Developer Work SD 300%
Database Developer Work DD 100%
Administration Manager Work AM 200%
Gantt chart and Network Diagram of the Project
Refer appendix-134
Cost Estimate of the project
5Direct Labor Cost = $139,320, refer Appendix-2
Risk Reserve = 20% of the Cost baseline (i.e. Direct Labor cost) = $27,864
Hence, Overall estimated cost for the project = ‘Direct Labor Cost’ + ‘Risk Reserve’
= $139,320 + $27,864
= $167,184
Quality Plan for the Project
The result of the task must meet the accompanying quality criteria:
Delivered on time6 The project should be conveyed on time with all the extent of work
securely.
Scope completed within
the budget
The spending requirements were kept in thought and all through
the task the cost ought to never affect the nature of work.
Earned Value was +ve
throughout the project
The value of SV & CV could be maintained positively throughout
the project and the CPI & SPI always above 1.
