1. Introduction and Objectives of the Project Plan
1.1 Overview of the Organization
South East Gippsland University is a modern academic organization. The Student
Management System of the University provides support for the universitys endeavours,
teaching and research. The goal of the management of the University is to continue with the
improvement of its systems to achieve service excellence and cost advantages. The proposed
project is attempting to revolutionize the service delivery to key stakeholders and foster
excellence in teaching, research, and public service that will establish the University as a
leader among the nation's major research universities.
The University currently has an aging student management system. It currently runs on old
technology, which is difficult and expensive to maintain, and does not provide the flexibility
and services needed in a modern academic organization. Implementing an appropriate
replacement presents an opportunity to integrate new technology such as SMS
communication with students (i.e. for the delivery of results), and use of social media (such
as Facebook, You Tube and Twitter), therefore increasing the overall ability of students to
communicate with the university and to facilitate the university with better communication
and feedback with students.
1.2 Current Situation and Problem/ Opportunity Statement
Currently at South East Gippsland University there is a separate and costly infrastructure for
student enrolments, students updates, alumni management and results publishing services.
Some of the systems rely on out-dated and unsupported equipment. The current technology
has limited flexibility for new, expanded and integrated services. A system is required to
support all the communications, infrastructure, and services to students and staff. Therefore
they are going to implement a new Automated Student Management System (ASMS) to
avoid those limitations.
The ASMS Project will renew the student management services and infrastructure at South
East Gippsland University. The University will implement a state-of-the-art web based
system to provide a higher level of service at lower cost for University customers. The system
will integrate the use of SMS and other social media technology with the student
management system. The ASMSs strategy is to change all of its obsolete student
management systems (student enrolment system, student reporting system (for lecturers and
administrative staff to view results), the results submission system (for lecturers to submit
results) and the results publication system that publish results to students.
The new implementation will provide one integrated system instead of an assortment of
systems, integration with other technologies (such as SMS), applications and social media,
availability of trained systems-developers and Lower operational costs for the University.
5 | P a g e
The existing student management suite cannot utilize cost-effective new technology (SMS
and other social media) and cannot be effectively maintained due to a scarcity of trained
systems-developers due to the age of the system and the compartmentalised nature of
previous enhancements of the systems.
In this situation, the University will update its aging student management suite of systems.
The existing systems will be replaced with a modern, integrated system. This modernization
is expected to enhance service delivery to faculty, students and staff in ways that cannot
effectively be accomplished with the existing core technology resources in place.

3.4 Work Breakdown Structure Development
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is developed as a chart in which the critical work
elements, called tasks, of the project are illustrated to portray their relationships to each other
and to the project as a whole. This WBS will assist key personnel in the effective allocation
of resources, project budgeting, procurement management, scheduling, quality assurance,
quality control, risk management, product delivery and service oriented management.
The project tasks are categorized into ten phases. Each of these phases is then subdivided
further down to sub phases. Each sub phase of the main phases may be subdivided into at
most two sub phases. Here we have used top-down approach to create the WBS.
Project Manager, Software Architect, Programmer, Business Analyst, Quality Assurance
Analyst, Database Administrator, Software Designer Technical writers, Human Resources
Manager and Web Developers engaged in developing the WBS.
(For detailed WBS refer Appendix B)

Tensile Strength The system will be used in various industrial environments
under high material stress loads.
Shear Strength The system will be subject to potentially high stress torque
loads in various applications.
Customer Satisfaction The customers should be given the customer satisfaction
form and the customer satisfaction of the system should
reach the expected level.
Material Scrap The system should ensure whether it is following the metrics
which internally established for measuring and controlling
material scrap for manufacturing efforts of it.
Product Defect Rate The system should ensure whether it is following the metrics
which internally established for measuring and controlling
product defects.
6.3 Quality Management Approach
Tool Use of Tool Person Responsible
Total Quality
Management (TQM)
Aims to produce product and service
specifications with zero defects.
TQM creates a virtuous cycle of
continuous improvement that boosts
production, customer satisfaction
and profits.

15. Recording of defects.
16. Setting quality control limits outside of which corrective action must be taken.
17. Tracking corrective action on defects.
18. Defect data analysis tracking defect trends over time.
6.5.3 Measures of Software Quality
Where:
KLOC = Thousand Lines of Code
NDT = Number of Defects Detected in Testing
NDO = Number of Defects Detected in Operation
Assumptions
We have to ensure the quality of the data of the existing system and the data entering process
of the new system. So we are using a Data Base Administrator (DBA) and a Data
Administrator (DA). As we have to increase the communication process of the system, we
have to use some extra plug-in so we are using two Software Engineers and one Software
Manager (SM) to supervise them. Once a week we are conducting a meeting to ensure the
quality of the process. So DBA, DA, SM and the two Quality Assurance Analysts are
participating to the meeting and they are finally providing a weekly Status Report to the
Quality Manager.
Metric Formula Significance
Code defect
density
(in system test)
NDT/KLOC Indicates the quality of the code presented to the
system test group
Code defect
density
(in operation)
NDO/KLOC Indicates the quality of the code delivered to the
customer
Defect removal
efficiency
NDT/(NDT +
NDO)
Indicates the effectiveness of the test function in
removing defects from the delivered software product

7. Risk management plan
7.1 Risk Management Strategies
When developing a system, an area of uncertainty that comes along with developing system.
The purpose of the risk management plan is to establish the framework in which the project
team will identify risks and develop strategies to reduce or avoid those risks.
Process Name Process Description
Risk Identification Risk identification should be done in initial step of the
project. So we going to held a project risk assessment
meeting at the beginning. There are few methods to
identify risks. Such as Brainstorming, Delphi Technique,
NGT, Crawford slip etc here we planned to use
Crawford method. In risk assignment meeting Project
manager distribute slips among all team members and
asked to write down every possible risks which related to
the our project within 5 minutes.
Risk Qualification and
Prioritization
In order to determine the effectiveness of the risks
identified by the team, a probability and impact factor
assign to each risk. This process allows the project
manager to prioritize risks based on the effect they may
have on the project. The project manager develops a
probability impact matrix to facilitate the team in moving
each risk to the appropriate place on the chart. Once the
risks were assigned a probability and impact and placed in
the appropriate position on the chart, the recorder
captured the finished product and the project manager
moved the process on to the next step: risk
mitigation/avoidance planning.
Risk Monitoring In this step the identified greatest risks have been added to
the project plan and ensure that they are monitoring at the
appropriate time in the project schedule. During team
meetings the Risk manger discussed the status of that risk.
Here we take the risk which is relevant to that time period
according to the schedule. Risk monitoring will be a
continuous process throughout the life of this project.
According to the project schedule The Project manager
ensured that the Risk manager provide the necessary
updates about risk status, trigger conditions,
documentation about risk response etc
28 | P a g e
Risk Mitigation and Avoidance The project manager led the team to develop responses to
each identified risk. Then the project team develops
avoidance and mitigation strategies. Those risks will be
added to the Risk register and the project plan to ensure
that they are monitored at the appropriate time and
responded to the particular risk. All risks which are
relevant to this project will be managed and controlled
within the project time, scope & cost. All identified risks
will evaluated in order to determine the best way to
respond to each risk to ensure compliance with these
constraints. In extreme cases it may be necessary to allow
flexibility to one of the projects constraints. Here time
and scope are not flexible constrains. Otherwise it will
affect the whole project schedule. Cost is the only flexible
constrain which can change.
Risk Register The risk register is a record of all identifies risks, their
probability and impact, risk categories, mitigation
strategies etc The risk register also will create at the
initial step of the project. During risk management
meeting, team will identified and categorized each risk.
Based on identified risks and time frames in the risk
register each risk been added to the project plan. Risk
manager will assign a risk manager to ensure agreed
mitigation strategy. Risk manager will provide status
reports of assigned risks according to the planned
timeframe.
7.2 Risk Management Tools
Tool Name Tool Description
Risk Audits Risk audits examine and document the effectiveness of
risk responses in dealing with identified risks and their
root causes, as well as the effectiveness of the risk
management process.
Risk Status Report Weekly report generated by the project team to provide
stakeholders with regular updates on risks and actions
taken to mitigate risks.
Status Meetings Project risk management can be an agenda item at
periodic status meetings. That item may take no time or
29 | P a g e
a long time, depending on the risks that have been
identified, their priority, and difficulty of response. Risk
management becomes easier the more often it is
practiced, and frequent discussions about risk make
talking about risks, particularly threats, easier and more
accurate.
Preparing Resource Scope
Statements
Defines all project inputs that need to be analyzed as a
part of the risk analysis procedure and this includes
defining expected performance levels.
Risk Trigger Questions Lists of situations or events in a particular area of a
municipality that can lead to risk identification. These
are situations or areas where risks have been discovered
within the organization. These trigger questions may be
grouped by areas such as performance, cost, schedule,
software etc
Risk Lists Usually lists of risks that have been found in similar
municipalities and/or similar situations. Caution must
be used when using this type of information to ensure it
is relevant and applicable to the current situation.
Technical Performance
Measurement
Technical performance measurement compares
technical accomplishments during project execution to
the project management plan's schedule of technical
achievement. Deviation, such as demonstrating more or
less functionality than planned at a milestone, can help
to forecast the degree of success in achieving the
project's scope.
7.3 Data Sources
Data Source Name Data Source Description
Surveys Technique where lists of questions are developed to seek
out risk in a particular area. A limitation of this method
is that people inherently don't like to complete surveys
and may not provide accurate information. The value of
the surveys may be difficult to determine due to
subjectivity in the answers or because of the focus of the
questions themselves.
Lessons Learned Database Project Manager maintained database with previous risk
management documentation from earlier projects
30 | P a g e
Experiential Knowledge The collection of information that a person has obtained
through their experience. Caution must be used when
using any knowledge based information to ensure it is
relevant and applicable to the current situation.
Documented Knowledge The collection of information or data that has been
documented about a particular subject. This is a source
of information that provides insight into the risks in a
particular area of concern.
Historical Information Basically the same as documented knowledge. The
difference is that historical information is usually widely
accepted as fact.
Engineering Templates A set of flow charts for various aspects of the
development process. These templates are preliminary in
nature and are intended as general guidance to
accomplish a top down assessment of activities.
7.4 Risk Categories

9.4 Project Information Accessibility
It is important to keep project information secured from outsiders and it is critical to the
success of the project. Considering about the ASMS project of South East Gippsland
University it is very important to keep all information in a secured place and allow access
those information to relevant persons. So consider about those facts we are going to store all
the information related with the ASMS project in a web site that created for the project. Team
members and stakeholders can access that information by log in to the site to do that first they
have to register to the site and create user accounts. Administrator of the site will grant the
relevant privileges to the users according to their user level.

In addition to that all the documents that related to the project will be e-mailed to the project
management group mail. For an example people who responsible to do the work allocated by
project manager, after completing the work he can send it to the group mail. So anyone
interest with it can access it according to their necessity.
