Case Study:
XYZ restaurant owner wishes to extend his current operation by
adding a new webpage to the
existing web site to setup an online ordering system for Takeaway
Orders. This new page should
have a scrolling menu and an online messaging capability to Chat
with the customers.
He also requires a new PC with fast internet connection to be
supplied at the restaurant's takeaway
counter.
The idea is that customers will send their requests via online
messaging system (chat window). On
duty staff receives the order, communicates with the customer, and
confirms the customer's order
and pick-up time. A confirmation email/text message will be sent to
the customer and the relevant
staff. Afterwards, the order will follow the normal process for
takeaway orders.
required : Project Proposal/charter covering the following
requirements.
1) a table listing at least five Objectives (in business terms) for
this project as you would
word them in the Project Proposal/Charter.
2) Develop work breakdown structure (WBS) of the case study
featuring 3-5 levels and 10-20
boxes.
3) Chart or Table, listing all the major tasks, in sequence,
and show all dependencies.
4) Draw a network diagram showing all the tasks and their
dependencies (abbreviate their
names if necessary). Arrange the tasks to achieve the shortest time
to complete the project
and determine the number of weeks it will take to complete the
project.
5) Calculate the slack or float time for each activity, on the
understanding that many tasks can
be run in parallel if dependencies permit.
6) Finally, list the task numbers that form the critical
path.
