Goal, Objectives, and Scope Statement for the Project

This report depicts the importance of developing project management strategies for the nominated organization Time Inc. This is an International firm which operates their software centers in around 15 countries all over the world. The steering committee of the organization is willing to implement a time sheet in all the software centers.  Project charter including project goal, objectives, scope statement, and stakeholder register with stakeholder management strategies are developed.

The goal of the project is to implement time sheet in all software center those are operated by the company. This is the responsibility of the project steering committee to design the outline of the time sheet.  In order to meet the project objectives a consultant should be hired who will assist the development of the time sheet system. A project team must be recruited for the internal and external staffs associated. In order to manage the software project processes professionals must be consulted. It is expected that, with the help of this approach a positive ROI will be obtained 5 years later than the implementation.

Objectives

• To implement a time sheet for all the software companies that are operated all over 15 countries by Time Inc.
• To define the  way through which the time is being managed by the company
• To consult with professionals to design the system in such a way so that it can satisfy the consumers

The scope of the project is to develop a Time sheet system to understand the way how the time is being utilized by all the software centers. The developers are much focused on developing a more constructive system rather than a defensive one. All the members associated to the project team will be treated similarly and concerns from the individuals are needed for successfully implementing the system. The demand of the consumers should be considered while developing the time sheet system for all the operating companies.

The graphics of the website theme was not tested individually. In addition to this, the set of technical risks due to which the project can be negatively impacted are also not defined by the project head. Apart from this, no accurate promotional activities are planned by the business analyst for promoting the time sheet system developed for the Time Inc.
