Create a Gantt chart (see Figures 3.3 and 3.4 in your textbook) for the entire process of the Proof of Concept. There is a two-month deadline from today to complete the POC. Your Gantt chart must include the following:
Today, as the initial meeting.
It should appear as the first line.
Select teams to participate in the project (1 week).
Information gathering (add the information gathering methods you will use and how long each will take).
System configurations based on information gathering methods (2 weeks).
Create an activity chart based on information gathering (information to create chart supplied; 2 days).
Create a use case diagram based on information gathering (information to create chart supplied; 1 day).
Show the finished configurations to the team and get feedback (1 day).
Make changes based on feedback (3 days).
Install the system in the test store (2 days).
Train staff (1 day).
Run a live test of POC (2 weeks).
Five more tasks from the concepts learned in this course.
The additional tasks can be subtasks for information gathering methods and other subtasks or major tasks not listed above.
Remember that events in a Gantt chart can happen simultaneously with other events. Some items also cannot start until others are completed. Everything has an estimated time frame, and it is displayed in the chart.
