Project .Net Development
Project .NET Development at erSoftware Company The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the process of proper project management. Project management consists of organizing, planning, and scheduling activities to meet cost and time constraints. Project plans in an organization are initiated to make a positive change in the organization. This paper will focus its discussion on project management aspects that erSoftware is working on using Microsoft Project 2007. It will cover all aspects of project management, including a description of the project, problem statement, project scope and a measure of project success. erSoftware is a third party vendor that customizes and installs internet application solutions. After failing to correctly develop and install software to three clients within the contracted timeframe, erSoftware decided that it is necessary to increase application time in order to remain profitable, maintain their market leader status, and fulfill the company mission of providing the guaranteed service with a specified time. If erSoftware cannot continue to meet deadlines, clients will not recommend or hire the services of erSoftware in the future.
Description of project The board and CEO at erSoftware looked to Team B, in the IT Department, to arrive at a solution to decrease application and development time. Team B’s recommendation is to standardize the .NET Development Environment. By standardizing, application time can be decreased by fifteen to twenty percent. Therefore, for erSoftware to remain profitable, Team B’s project is to standardize the .NET Development Environment to decrease application time for development and installation to outside vendors. This project will be accomplished by April 20, 2008, at a cost of approximately twenty thousand dollars ($20,000). Management at erSoftware feel this is a small investment compared with the potential outcome for the company.
