Project Manager

Milestone 1: Project “Scaffolding”

This milestone pertains to setting up an initial schedule and any resources that your team will use for the duration of the project. It will be useful to get an overview of every team member’s own milestones so that you have an accurate big picture view.

In consultation with your team, work backward from the final deadline to set intermediate deadlines for each deliverable. In particular you need to set deadlines for what you will accomplish by the journal deadline for Week 11, Week 12/13, and Week 15.
Organize management tools for your team:
- Communication tools
- Workflow narratives
- Action items
- Testing results/reports
  - Bugs/feature requests
  - Question/answer sequences

Milestone 2: Periodic Updates

Not as much a milestone as an on-going task, once the project is up and running the Project Manager is responsible for keeping track of everyone’s progress.

Get periodic updates on progress; in particular, the project’s “place” in the overall flow should be known at all times (transparency). Team members will be giving a status reports in class for the rest of the semester. However, the instructor will expect you to know and be able to report on the status of each member of your team at any time.
Familiarize yourselves with the specific milestones of each team member so that you know how to monitor the team’s overall progress.
Monitor the status of the report-in-progress and other related documentation.
Coordinate team decisions and action items addressing any unforeseen delays or roadblocks.
