1 DDPSS Website Development Executive Summary [Overview of Executive Summary xecutive Summaries are exactly what they imply, a brief description of the project a busy executive may read to understand the purpose, main points, and deliverables of a project. They are tailored so upper management understands how the project fits into the mission and goals of the organization. E Unlike the aforementioned templates in this document, the Executive Summary is known for its brevity. However, the importance of this template is to be able to recognize and report the most important things the executives need to know so there are no “surprises” during the project run. [NOTE: THIS WILL BE THE LAST THING YOU WILL FINISH IN THIS DOCUMENT, BUT IT USUALLY APPEARS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PROJECT PLAN.] Insert Executive Summary narrative here.

12 DDPSS Website Development Risk Matrix [OVERVIEW OF RISK MATRIX isk Matrices are at the core of solving problems before they impact project scope, cost, schedule, and product quality. Clearly, one may categorize risks on what they are going to impact or the type of risk. For example, there may be risks because of the personnel on the team (They may need training on a new technology, or if one team member is sick, their contributions and expertise will be lost.), or there may have been problems in the past with a certain vendor and so forth. R However, another way of looking at it is whether the risks may fit into three different scenarios:  Known, knowns (It is known when the risk may occur and what it is).  Unknown, knowns (It is unknown when the risk may occur but it is a known entity).  Unknown, Unknowns (Neither the timing nor the risk is known, a surprise). There are many ways to categorize and order risks so that the project manager and the team will stay on top of the situation and able to mitigate or control the risks when they occur. The important part of the Risk Matrix is to make sure that most of the risks are identified and that there are defined actions to deal with them.] Risk Probability (L,M,H) Severity (L,M,H) Mitigation Approach Team skillsets not up to par M H Train team members on new technology.

What is the chain of command?  New Column – Rank the risk.  New Column – Number the risk.  New Column – Description of Loss (or Gain) from the risk occurring.  Categorize Risks that will need attention and those on a “watch list.”] Course number | Confidential

14 DDPSS Website Development Project Schedule [OVERVIEW OF PROJECT SCHEDULE chedules are used throughout the project. Usually, a project manager is told how much time is available to complete a project. Many times, a project manager has to make the project “fit” into the time allotted. However, when a detailed schedule is created, the project manager may have to go back to the sponsor to discuss a more realistic schedule to achieve the product of the project. S A detailed schedule is not put in place until the Scope Statement and Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is discussed and created by the project team. The schedule emanates from the Scope Statement and Work Breakdown Structure. Part of the reason for introducing learners to Microsoft Project software is to enable them to use this tool to effectively create a project schedule for their assignment. Do not be afraid to use features introduced in the Microsoft Project Labs such as hyperlinks to relevant websites or using notes or comments to clarify the milestones or tasks. Embedded below is a blank Microsoft Project document:] Microsoft Project Document [GUIDANCE: Moving towards Distinguished Performance on the Project Schedule Add this additional information in the appropriate places in the body of the section above. Here are some additional things that may be added to the template to customize it or elaborate on information that is known about the project:  Separate Word Document explaining and clarifying the schedule.  If the task is greater than 8–10 working days, it may need to be broken into smaller tasks.  Schedule shows predecessors to tasks.  Use of the Note feature in Project.  Use of the Comment feature in Project.  Use of the Hyperlink feature in Project.  Add Resources to the Tasks.
