Roll No: 32

Scope of the Project:

• The Scope of the project is too vast because the software
must accommodate all the product manufacture by the
company.

The Online Software Scope Will be:

• To reduce the paperwork.

• To reduce the time in communication.

• To bring accuracy in the work.

• To automise the paper correction wherever it is possible

so that again the manpower will be reduced and as the
correction is done automatically the result generation will
be very fast.

In Order to develop such kind of software a

Project’s work scope will be:
• Flexible online shop with full discounting and pricing
option.

• Full order and Payment processing.

• Real time Stock control.

• To identify various kinds of Product.

• Auto cataloguing.

Feasibility Study for the Project:

• First we have to see that this kind of the project is viable
or not. Is the computerization of all the topic is possible or
not? If possible then upto what extent the computerization
is possible that is what kind of the examination or
questions can be computerised. All such topic should be
carefully studied.

• Technical Feasibility: In this feasibility all the technicalities

are studied. Definitely this software is the web based but
in order to develop this software which technology must
be used because whenever a technology is consider the
platform required for it which will include:
• Hardware Platform

• Operating System

• If we prefer the software to be used which are freely

available then cost will be reduced. But if we prefer the
software to be used are licence copies then we have to
pay for that.

• Cost Benefit feasibility study: If we are going to develop

the online Shop software then what will be cost of
development that we have to study because a software
development team will have different kinds of personnel
which are expert in the specific area and we have to pay
 remuneration as well as other indirect expenses which are
incurring on the software must have to consider.

• As per the requirement of the software the time to time

the customization needed, this cost must be in the
budget.

• Another feasibility is that if the power failure occurs then

the data should be maintain.

• Another Feasibility is that if the person is paying then

what kind of card should be acceptable and the account
facility.

Problems expected in the Project:

As the Project Manager i feel that the following problems are
expected in the project.

• No Skilled Person

• Time Factor

• Cost Factor

• Complexity

• Simple to operate

No Skilled Person:
Since the project is too vast and the complexity can be
occurred, so the skilled people are required. As the project
manager i will appoint the more skilled and experienced
personnel in the development process of the software.

Time Factor:

As the scope of the project is too vast it may take longer

duration to complete. As it will take longer duration it is
the problem. So every module of the project should be
completed within time.

Cost Factor:

As the Skilled and experienced Personnel are required the

cost can effect. And the technologies used in the project,
that’s cost also considered.

Complexity:

As the online shop then the complexity will increase and

hence various problems may occurs.

In order to reduce the complexity interdependencies in

modules must be identified and different teams must be
allocated.
Simple:

The Online Software should be simple so that the people

can be easily operate.
Organisational Structure to be followed

Here the Matrix Organisation structure is followed.

Matrix Organisation:
Matrix organisation is a compromise between the project
and functional organisation. The idea of the matrix
structure originated from aerospace technology in the USA
for the construction of a new airport.

Definition:

According to Kenneth,” Matrix Organisation is a balanced

compromise between departmentation on the basis of
function and departmentation on the basis of specific
products or projects to be completed.

Features of the Matrix Organisation

• The Functional heads are given authority as regards

the technical aspects of the organisation.

• The Subordinate employees under matrix

organisation are under dual control.

• It is suitable to large projects.

• Effective communication system is essential for the

smooth functioning of the matrix organisation.

• Authority flows both down and across.

Requirement of the Project From Matrix Org:

Because in this Project we will require the information from the
people who are working with the different department of the
company. The different department and the software
development team will work together throughout the project
processes.

• Better Co-ordination

• Higher Motivation

• Fullest use of resources

Risk Factor in the Project

The Following are the risk factor associated with the
project

• Power failure: if the power failure occurs at the time of the

transaction what the procedure should be taken can be
considered.

• As the Online Shop is conducted on the computers it is

mandatory that all the people who use this software must
know how to operate the software.

• Another risk is associated with the web server where the

database of online is present can be hacked.

• Another risk associated is that internet connection may be

failed during the transaction. so alternative internet
connections must be made available.

Project Life Cycle

 Before starting the actual project the Project Life Cycle is
considered. According to this life cycle a project flows. The
life cycle is important which decides which activities are
carried out during the project creation.

Project Feasibility Analysis

The project feasibility analysis is done to ascertain the existing
strength and weakness of the project. There are different
project feasibility analysis for different product, so one has to
design the Feasibility Report according to the product or
project.
 A Project feasibility analysis is done by carrying out :
Market analysis,

Technical analysis,

Financial analysis,

Social profitability analysis.

Market analysis:

The market analysis evaluates a project’s feasibility in

terms of market. It screens the project ideas for pros and
cons of the project.

An analysis of past and present demand, finding out of

quality value of consumption and identification of major
consumers of the product.

Technical analysis:

Technical analysis apart from offering technical feasibility

for projects but also offers for cost estimation. Moreover it
provides basis for consideration of different alternatives
on employment, capital services, technical know-how.

Financial analysis:

Financial analysis is done to prepare financial statements.

Financial statements are used for evaluation of different
measures of commercial profitability.

Financial analysis has important role to play for technical

cost estimation in various Performa statements.
