1.2 Project overview
After analyzing the details of the project overview it has been discovered that the manual
ticket processing system used by different organizations are not at all beneficial rather the
chances of error occurrence was also very high. In order to gain competitive advantages and
measurable revenue, it is necessary to consider proper technology and mechanism to develop
such a system for the consumer that results beneficial outcome (Serra & Kunc, 2015). The
traditional rather manual ticket booking approach failed to accommodate all necessary aspects
again it also unable to provide proper data backup, disaster recovery and application resilience to
the consumers. In order to mitigate the issues associated to traditional ticket booking it is needed
to develop such a system for Globex which could minimize the technical issues. In the newly
developed online ticket booking system, the data could be recovered easily from the server and
even the list information can also be retrieved from the server securely. Not only data access but
also the online ticket booking system gives proper security to the employee’s data and to the
consumer’s data as well (Garel, 2013). Due to the presence of proper server authentication none

6IT PROJECT MANAGEMENT
of the external user will be able to come and access data from the server without the permission
of the system owners. Moreover, the external attackers will also not be able to access data from
the server without the permission of the consumers. From the review of the undertaking it is
discovered that, the task is about the improvement or execution of internet ticketing framework
to stay away from the issues related to framework handling. The Riverina Agriculture and the
way of life indicate were established in the time of 2010, preceding the foundation of Globex. In
November a 3 days occasion named as RALS, was sorted out that, for the most part conveys
distinctive neighborhood business, horticultural types of gear, crude material providers and
ranchers too (Joslin & Müller, 02015). For augmenting the ticket doors that is subject to ticket
offering was the principle center of the association to take care of. As the request is developing
step by step hence the cost of the tickets are additionally expanding quickly and because of this
reason the organization will embrace internet ticketing framework to make the ticket offering
approach much effective. After the execution of this specific approach the buyers require not to
mind on any line (Kaiser, El Arbi & Ahlemann, 2015). For implementing the online ticket
booking system, all the project development steps staring from the project initiation up to the
project closure must be monitored by the project manager. Even after the implementation of the
system, post project review and detail analysis is also required to be done by the project manager
and the business analyst as well.
1.3 Project description and project objectives
The project is about the implementation of an online ticket booking system for the
Globex Company. Due to efficient service and productivity currently the company is becoming
able to grab huge number of consumers throughout (Mir & Pinnington, 2014). However, due to
the growing number of consumers the company is unable to provide as per the service required

7IT PROJECT MANAGEMENT
by the consumers. In order to mitigate this consumer grabbing oriented issues currently the
company is willing to develop an online ticket booking system where the users need not to wait
on the queue. For developing such system, the company should hire technical experts who have
lots of experiences from previous projects (Serra & Kunc, 2015). The RALS project depends on
cutting edge web based ticketing framework rather than manual ticket booking. It has been
discovered that this approach does not just diminish the quantity of purchaser's over the line yet
additionally help the quantity of buyers who will purchase tickets on the web. Clients can use
various types of advanced gadgets to process the web based ticketing framework for the
purchasers. The targets or the objectives of the project are as follows:
 To implement a progressed online ticket booking framework over the manual
ticket booking system
 To plan the supporter for expanding the ticket offering approach over online stage
 To enhance the current ticket booking approach and offering approach and to
expand the rate of ticket offering to the consumers with additional benefits.
1.5 Communication plan
1.5.1 Team rules and expectation
The project manager is needed to develop different components those are helpful to
manage and engage people from different geological boundary. I have realized that in order to
implement an error free system it is the responsibility of the project manager to consider
different social as well as economical frameworks (Walker, 2015). For developing such system
the project manager should build up different aspects including decision making, information
sharing, work review and conflict resolve. I have already filled in as an undertaking colleague for

8IT PROJECT MANAGEMENT
building up an online combo booking framework. In order to avoid the internal conflicts and
external conflicts it is necessary to consider different managerial rules and regulation for the
employees who are working the project. While building up the framework I have increased
proficient framework improvement related learning and abilities. I feel that these aptitudes and
capacities will stand helpful for me while building up the online ticket booking framework for
RALS (Turner, 2016). The general objective of the venture advancement is to build up a secured
online ticket booking framework. I have also realized that the project manager should utilize
open communication so that the project manager could share their point of views with other
project development team members.
1.5.2 Team value

considered by the venture director and other task colleagues also (Verzuh, 2015). The group

colleagues should have been considered

adopted by the project manager and project team members to enable the project
