Week 6 Activity – Communication Plan & Project Schedule

Overview

The sponsor of the project has reviewed your scope definition (goals, objectives, project structure, and stakeholders) and has approved it. However, the sponsor would like to see an improvement in communication between the project team and the stakeholders. See Chapter 4 in the course textbook. Ask the instructor for clarification if needed.

The sponsor has also requested a project schedule be developed immediately to track and coordinate the progress of the remaining tasks for the project.

Note: Use MS Project or another scheduling software of your choice. Ask the instructor for additional options for developing a project schedule.
