HOW TO WORK ON THIS ASSIGNMENT (EXAMPLE ESSAY / DRAFT)
At my former job, I worked on a project where the goal was to create a new mobile application for the clients of our business. The goal of the project was to give our clients a more user-friendly interface for accessing our goods and services. As the project manager, it was my job to monitor the project’s development and make sure we achieved the predetermined objectives.
Six people made up the team: two front-end developers, two back-end developers, a UX/UI designer, and a quality assurance tester. While the back-end developers worked on the functionality of the application, the front-end developers were in charge of its user interface. While the QA tester tested the application’s functionality to make sure it worked as intended, the UX/UI designer was in charge of designing the layout and making sure it was user-friendly.
A functioning prototype, a wireframe design, a beta version, and a final version were among the project’s deliverables. We established several deadlines for the project, including the delivery of the wireframe design in two weeks, the functional prototype in four, the beta version in eight, and the final version in twelve.
Executives from the company served as the project sponsors, while the marketing team and customers were among the major participants. We spoke with the marketing team about the project’s business requirements early on to make sure that the application’s functionality and design complemented the company’s objectives. Given the timeframe and financial constraints, the project’s scope was reasonable, and we intended to present our clients with an application that was both fully functional and easy to use.
However, the project did experience some scope creep. The stakeholders proposed several new features that weren’t part of the project’s original scope. We had many meetings with the stakeholders to prioritize the new features and determine their impact on the project’s budget and schedule to identify and address this.
Ultimately, we were successful in achieving our end goal and meeting the deadline and budget we had set for delivering the finished application to our clients. Our team had great communication, and we regularly met to review our progress and set priorities for the work ahead. I oversaw the team’s priorities as the project manager and ran the meetings and discussions.
The choices taken during the project had a big impact on its performance, cost, and schedule. We were able to complete the project on schedule and within budget by setting priorities and controlling the workload of the crew. Additionally, the project’s performance was enhanced by our emphasis on developing a user-friendly interface and guaranteeing that the functionality of the program suited the company’s objectives. Overall, the project was a success since it gave value to our clients and satisfied the expectations of the stakeholders.
